MyCaseStudy Association

Your data creates value. That value should benefit you and be in your control.

MyCaseStudy is building a data sovereignty ecosystem that gives individuals greater control over how their data is contributed, used, and valued.

Every day, people generate data through the technologies they use, the places they go, the activities they participate in, and increasingly, the conversations they have with artificial intelligence.

That data can improve products, train models, advance scientific knowledge, inform public systems, and generate enormous commercial value.

Yet the people who generate the data often have the least visibility or control over what happens next.

We believe individuals should be able to understand what data they create, decide whether and how it can be used, know where it came from and where it goes, and participate in the value created when they choose to contribute it.

MyCaseStudy is developing infrastructure that allows individuals to deliberately contribute data under defined consent conditions, while preserving provenance, privacy, and control.

When data generates commercial value, the people who created it should have the opportunity to participate in that value.

Consent by Design

People choose what they contribute, for what purposes, and under what conditions.

Privacy-preserving Processing

Data can be processed and de-identified on-device, before any authorized use.

Data Provenance

Maintain traceability of the permissions attached to data.

Participant Value Sharing

Create mechanisms through which contributors can participate in the economic value generated from their data.

Mission-led. Built to scale.

MyCaseStudy Association (MCSA) is a nonprofit-led data sovereignty ecosystem working to expand individual agency within the data economy.

Commercial technology development is carried out through MyCaseStudy Technologies (MCSTech), a for-profit venture designed to support scalable commercial investment while preserving mission oversight.
