OUR MISSION & VISION

Who We Are

Data Safety Alliance is a labor-tech nonprofit helping platform workers understand, access, and collectively use the data companies hold about them.

Our Mission

Our Mission

To equip platform workers with the knowledge and legal tools to reclaim their personal data, negotiate fair algorithmic management, and hold AI companies accountable for ethical data usage.

Our Vision

We believe the invisible workforce powering AI deserves absolute control over their digital footprint. Our vision is a digital economy where workers know exactly what data is extracted from them, who profits from it, and how to protect themselves against algorithmic exploitation.

Our Core Values

Our approach to systemic change is driven by four core principles:

Solidarity

We build collective power by directly partnering with gig worker associations and the wider labor movement.

Inclusivity

We demystify complex data privacy laws so they are accessible to the workers who need them most.

Care

We prioritize the immediate well-being and safety of the workers navigating an extractive digital landscape.

Respect

We treat workers not as subjects of research, but as the rightful owners of their data and the architects of their own advocacy.
