Data Utilisation Initiatives in
Expo 2025
Osaka, Kansai, Japan

Recognising the Expo as an opportunity to explore the future of society, we will promote the data utilisation initiative based on the Expo’s concept of “People’s Living Lab”.

In order to examine specific measures for this initiative, Data Utilisation Expert Committee was established and after discussions with experts, Data Utilisation Guidelines were formulated. We will promote co-creation by linking various types of data generated through the experience of participating in the Expo between participants and strive to improve visitor services and leverage to better operate the Expo site in accordance with these guidelines.
Note: Data related to the users will only be linked if the users have given their consent.

A Value and Privacy Impact Assessment (VPIA) is a tool for data utilisation participants to assess the value and privacy considerations of the services they provide prior to the provision of the services. Of the services participating in this initiative, those that handle data related to the user are subject to the VPIA.

Operation in Setting Up Data Linkage

Users are able to select which of the services provided by data utilisation participants to link their data to, and by setting up data linkage, they can easily utilise various services related to the Expo.
When using the services, user can review the results of the assessment of benefits and privacy considerations of each service and begin using them after agreeing to the data linkage.
The user can cancel the linkage at any time, even after it has been set up.
