The Guide to the Sandbox (beta phase)
"The ICO is introducing the Sandbox service to support organisations who are developing products and services that use personal data in innovative and safe ways.
Organisations will have the opportunity to engage with us; draw upon our expertise and advice on mitigating risks and ‘data protection by design’, whilst ensuring that appropriate protections and safeguards are in place.
In order to develop the Sandbox, the ICO is launching the beta phase for a sample of participant organisations to try out the service.
The beta phase will provide a free, professional, fully functioning service for approximately ten organisations, of varying types and sizes, across a number of sectors.
The beta phase comprises:
Application period: 29 March - 24 May (submission deadline)
Selection period: May - July
Planning and operational period: July 2019 - September 2020
There are a number of benefits to your organisation participating in the Sandbox. These may include:
access to ICO expertise and support;
enhanced confidence in the compliance of your finished product or service;
a better understanding of the data protection frameworks and how these effect your business;
being seen as accountable and proactive in your approach to data protection, by customers, peer-organisations and the ICO, leading to increased consumer trust in your organisation;
supporting the UK in its ambition to be an innovative economy; and
contributing to the development of products and services that can be shown to be of value to the public."
