The future belongs to companies that provide human-centric solutions to privacy and control of data

The human-centric approach to data is aimed at a fair, sustainable, and prosperous digital society. In such a society, people get value from their data and set the agenda on how it is used. And for organisations, the ethical use of data is always the most attractive option.

Who we are

MyData Global is an award-winning, international non-profit. We have over 100 organisation members and close to 400 individual members from over 40 countries on six continents. We help organisations build human-centric solutions and services, and we collaborate with local, national, and international stakeholders to advance ethical use of personal data. We facilitate the MyData community of thousands of experts who meet regularly at our flagship event, the international MyData Conference, which has taken place annually since 2016.

More about us
