Data Act: Proposal for a Regulation on harmonised rules on fair access to and use of data.
The Draft Data Act aims to ensure fairness in the digital environment, with specific objectives including facilitating the access and use of data by consumers and businesses and putting in place safeguards against unlawful data transfer without notification by CSPs.
The Data Act aims to maximise the value of data in the economy by ensuring that a wider range of stakeholders gain control over their data and that more data is available for innovative use, while preserving incentives to invest in data generation.
The Data Act complements the Data Governance Regulation proposed in November 2020, the first deliverable under the European strategy for data.
