Data Controller Study

Understanding the organisations that we regulate is a critical part of our work. Last year, we launched the Data Controller Study with our research partner IFF to build a better understanding of organisations’ collection and use of personal data so we can better serve our key stakeholders and use the insights to fulfil our strategic objectives. We’ve now published Year 2 of the Data Controller Study, allowing us to track differences between last year’s findings and providing new insights. 

We have published the quantitative survey questionnaire, technical report and raw data for broader research and analytical purposes, in line with our enduring objectives. We aspire for the data and findings to contribute to the development of collective data insights and support policy development and research that take into consideration data controllers’ views and experiences, support public welfare and safeguard individuals’ data protection rights.

We would be keen to discuss the use of data and findings across a range of sectors, such as public, regulatory and academic. If you wish to get in touch or have questions about the research, please email the team: [email protected].
