Wording it would add
(33a)The processing of personal data within an AI regulatory sandbox established pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2024/1689, or in the course of testing in real-world conditions, remains subject in full to Regulation (EU) 2016/679. Participation in a sandbox does not constitute a legal basis for processing, nor does it exempt the controller from the balancing test, from the obligation to carry out a data protection impact assessment, or from the rights of data subjects. The requirements of human oversight laid down in Article 14 of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689, and the classification of a system as high-risk under that Regulation, apply in addition to, and not in substitution for, the safeguards of Regulation (EU) 2016/679.
Justification
Clarifies the interplay between AI sandboxes and real-world testing and GDPR Regulation.
