description: Providing access to data in a privacy-preserving fashion

## Quick Start
- [Compute-to-Data example](https://github.com/oceanprotocol/ocean.py/blob/main/READMEs/c2d-flow.md)
## Motivation
The most basic scenario for a Publisher is to provide access to the datasets they own or manage. However, a Publisher may offer a service to execute some computation on top of their data. This has some benefits:
- The data **never** leaves the Publisher enclave.
- It's not necessary to move the data; the algorithm is sent to the data.
- Having only one copy of the data and not moving it makes it easier to be compliant with data protection regulations.
[This page](https://oceanprotocol.com/technology/compute-to-data) elaborates on the benefits.
