What this object links to

Every relation appears below as a path: from the source with its locator, through the conditions and exceptions of the object carrying the relation, to the consequence. A locator belongs to a statement in the data and not to a relation, so the source is the source anchor of the carrying object.

- Condition | allApplies where you are a provider or prospective provider of an Annex III high-risk AI system and you want to test it in real world conditions outside an AI regulatory sandbox, before placing it on the market or putting it into service. If you are established outside the Union, Article 60(4), point (d), requires you to appoint a legal representative established in the Union; that is a different figure from the authorised representative under Article 22.
- ExceptionArticle 60(1), third subparagraph, leaves Union and national law on real-world testing of high-risk systems related to products under the Annex I harmonisation legislation unaffected. Article 60(4), point (i), contains a law enforcement carve-out: where seeking informed consent would prevent the system from being tested, testing may proceed without consent, provided the testing and its outcome have no negative effect on the subjects and their personal data are deleted after the test. For the systems referred to in Annex III, points 1, 6 and 7, in law enforcement, migration, asylum and border control, registration runs through the secure non-public section of the EU database under Article 49(4), point (d). For the systems referred to in Annex III, point 2, Article 49(5) requires registration at national level.
As long as this exception is not ruled out, the outcome stays conditional and you have to establish it yourself.
