MyData is a human-centric approach to personal data management designed to empower individuals. MyDataShare is a MyData operator platform, which puts this approach into action. It is a new software-as-a-service package for managing digital identities, personal data sharing and processing related permissions between individuals and digital services. Operators can deploy MyDataShare to realise MyData use cases and help their ecosystem organisations to meet the compliance criteria set by privacy regulations.

VASTUU GROUP
The goal is to solve the challenges in the construction industry regarding the availability and reliability of workforce.
In 2019 the concept was tested in practice and used MyData succesfully in one recruitment process.
TRAFICOM
In the Traficom case, we are testing how a human-centric data model works and how information from authorities, such as driving rights, may be transferred between services based on consent.
The goal is that drivers can enter sites without any extra bureaucracy: driver licence information and special qualifications related, are transferred from Traficom to the drivers personal MyData Wallet and then to partner systems. We are putting an emphasis on demonstrating this real-life use case.
ORIOLA
The challenge faced in medical research is the growing trend of people not wanting to give out their personal ID without strong identification, which increases the risk of not finding enough participants, which decreases the reliability of the research results.
Our solution for consent management enables Oriola to develop operations and build an ecosystem of health information. A more efficient recruitment process will allow a large pool of individuals to be recruited to the research registry. This concept will also significantly reduce the cost associated with managing the surveys, when the participants are managing the processes and responding to surveys on their own devices.

MyData concept entertains a high-level concept of the MyData operator, a ‘guardian’ infrastructure provider in-between the data providers, data using services and individuals. Operator is a key enabler towards human centred, sustainable data-oriented business development around personal data - it can free up under-utilised personal data for fresh, innovative uses.

MyDataShare is an operator platform. It enables requesting in personal data from different sources, against a digitally documented purpose and legal basis, and doesn’t allow access to personal data without individual’s permission. It doesn’t handle the personal data of individuals during the data exchange process.
MyDataShare can be used by entities acting as a MyData operator to connect different systems across public-private and industry vertical boundaries. It is an easy way to add transparency into personal data exchange taking place between organisations - and also to organisation’s new local personal data processing needs, as our first deployment cases which we locally operate under muntiedot.fi demonstrate.
Share, trust, and value. We can create a new sustainable way of living, working and doing business by adopting technology in a human-centric, ethical and sustainable way. Our platform consists of generic trust services and capabilities which enable trust to flourish:
These capabilities form the core of our future endeavors and are our tools for creating an impact.
The built environment combines many fields of business, the way towards digital twins requires a holistic multilevel collaboration across verticals. From information flows of construction to real estate innovations and services; from energy to logistics and finance; combined with retail, cleantech and health and wellbeing. Technology enables quite much already but the key is wide collaboration and courage to try new things.
The essence of ecosystem thinking is that no ecosystem actor alone creates user value, but ecosystem actors create it together. And the approach to business and innovation is first and foremost a change of mindset: it cannot be based on single and discrete measure: Purpose, trust, transparency, responsibility and choice lead the way. Our model is based on
