SAIL stands for Secure Anonymised Information Linkage. The SAIL Databank is a world-class flagship for the robust secure storage and use of anonymised person-based data for research to improve health, well-being and services. Its databank of anonymised data about the population of Wales is internationally recognised. Backed and endorsed by the Government, the SAIL Databank receives core funding from the Welsh Government’s Health and Care Research Wales.

The SAIL Databank is a safe haven for billions of anonymised person-based records combined with a complete data linkage and analysis toolset that helps researchers answer important questions for the benefit of society.
