- Condition | allApplies for the purpose of testing in real world conditions under Article 60, that is where you are a provider or prospective provider of a high-risk AI system listed in Annex III and you test that system in real world conditions outside an AI regulatory sandbox. Article 60(4), point (i), makes informed consent in accordance with Article 61 one of the cumulative conditions under which such testing is allowed. Consent is obtained per subject prior to their participation. Article 61 sits in Chapter VI, which is named in none of the three exceptions in the third paragraph of Article 113; the general date of application in the second paragraph therefore governs, 2 August 2026.
- Condition | any ofIf under Article 60(2) you test in partnership with one or more deployers or prospective deployers, the condition stays with you as the provider, even where that party is the one in contact with the subject. Article 60(4), point (h), requires you and that party to conclude an agreement specifying your tasks and responsibilities; that is where you record who informs, who obtains the consent and who keeps the file.
- ExceptionThe only exception sits not in Article 61 but in Article 60(4), point (i): in the case of law enforcement, where seeking informed consent would prevent the AI system from being tested in real world conditions, testing may proceed without that consent, provided the testing and its outcome have no negative effect on the subjects and their personal data are deleted after the test is performed. Outside that context there is no exception to consent; Article 61 contains none of its own.
As long as this exception is not ruled out, the outcome stays conditional and you have to establish it yourself.
