The proposed EU data act lays down harmonised rules on fair access to and use of data. The aim is to remove barriers before consumers and businesses' access to data in a context in which the volume of data generated by humans and machines is increasing exponentially and becoming a critical factor for innovation by businesses (e.g. algorithm training) and by public authorities (e.g. shaping of smart cities).

EPRS policy podcast - The Data act

Adopted in April 2016, the new EU data protection framework is fully applicable since 25 May 2018.

The package on data protection aims at uniformly strengthening citizens’ rights while reducing burdens for companies and public authorities, as well as adapting rules to the digital era. The package, taking a comprehensive approach, included a general regulation (GDPR) and a directive applying data protection principles to the processing of data for police and judicial cooperation in criminal matters.
