About this course
This course explains what the EU Data Act is for and the products and services it covers, the key roles it creates for users, data holders, data recipients and data processing services, the data access and sharing rights for connected products and related services, the contractual requirements and the terms it treats as unfair, the obligations on switching between cloud and other data processing services, and the safeguards for personal data and trade secrets. It’s written for legal, compliance, procurement, IT, product development and commercial roles.
The Data Act reaches companies that never thought of themselves as data businesses: a manufacturer of connected equipment, a service provider that holds the data its products generate, a customer who wants to move between cloud providers. The teams that design products, negotiate contracts and buy services need a shared picture of who may ask for what, and what the organization must be able to deliver. The course gives them that picture before the requests arrive.
