ProgrammesThe European Commission has published a document to respond to Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) on the Data Act.
The Data Act, which will become applicable on 12 September 2025, establishes a horizontal set of rules on data access and use that aims to protect fundamental rights and to deliver wide-ranging benefits for the European economy and society. It increases data availability – particularly industrial data – and encourages data-driven innovation while ensuring fairness in the allocation of data value among all actors in the data economy.
It will contribute to the establishment of a single market for data, together with the Data Governance Act, which aims to increase trust in voluntary data-sharing mechanisms.
As applicants to data-related call topics are expected to be aware of relevant EU policies and legislation, these FAQs can provide a useful overview on the Data Act.
We offer news and event updates, covering all domains and topics of Horizon Europe, Digital Europe & EDF (and occasionally, for ongoing projects, Horizon 2020).
Stay informed about what matters to you.
