Meta sought an experienced, independent organization to provide data access tools that are convenient for researchers to use while, given the sensitive nature of the data, providing access in a cleanroom environment, that is secured from end to end, with rules for what data can be imported and only results that are compliant with privacy can be exported.
CASD met these criteria and has strong ties with the global research community. After providing to facebook Data during the EDMO pilot (1 project), CASD will provide access to Instagram data for a larger pilot program (up to 7 projects).
