A Data Clean Room is a secure environment where two or more companies can combine and analyze their data without directly sharing their raw, sensitive, or personally identifiable information.

It helps companies gain insights from shared data while protecting customer privacy and following data privacy regulations.

Example: Suppose Amazon and a clothing brand want to understand how many customers who viewed an advertisement later purchased clothes. They can use a data clean room to analyze overlapping customer data without exposing individual customer details to each other.
