Article 59 — Further processing of personal data for developing certain AI systems in the public interest in the AI regulatory sandbox

Within a sandbox, personal data gathered for other purposes may be reused to build AI serving a substantial public interest, such as health, environment, energy, transport safety or public administration. This applies only where non-personal or synthetic data cannot do the job, the data sit in an isolated, protected environment, and monitoring can halt processing if risks to individuals emerge. Data protection law otherwise continues to apply, and personal data created in the sandbox cannot leave it.
