Smart Data Donation Service

About
 The Smart Data Donation Service is part of a nationwide network of projects that explore how data generated in everyday life can be used to improve society. This includes data from smart watches and mobile phones, as well as things like YouTube viewing histories. It’s the sort of data that is generated every day in our connected, digital world. The service provides tools that support data donation and exploration.

Data catalogue
Smart Data Donation Service data includes information on digital use and wellbeing. The first wave of the MOSAIC cohort includes YouTube and Google Play histories linked to participant survey data. Subsequent waves will add further data and new platforms. View the SDDS MOSAIC data catalogue entry. 

Data application
Data access is via dedicated SafePoints at the Smart Data Donation Service in York, or through other SafePods in the network. Researchers, and the projects they are working on, need to be verified in order to access data. Contact the SDDS for further information
