Reuse of pre-existing industry datasets for research purposes requires a multi-stakeholder solution that balances the researcher's analysis objectives with the need to engage the industry data custodian, whilst respecting the privacy rights of human data subjects. Current methods place the burden on the data custodian, whom may not be sufficiently trained to fully appreciate the nuances of data de-identification. Through modelling of functional, quality, and emotional goals, we propose a de-identification in the cloud approach whereby the researcher proposes analyses along with the extraction and de-identification operations, while engaging the industry data custodian with secure control over authorising the proposed analyses. We demonstrate our approach through implementation of a de-identification portal for sports club data.
