Recital 4
(4) In order to respond to the needs of the digital economycontribute to the digital transition of the Union, a comprehensive harmonisation at Union level is needed to ensure fairness in the allocation of value from data among all actors in the data economy as well asto avoid fragmentation resulting from national legislation, and therefore to create trust in the data sharing environment. Moreover, to foster access to and use of data. and to remove barriers to a well-functioning internal market for data, it is necessary to lay down a harmonised framework specifying who, other than the manufacturer or other data holder is entitled to access the data generated by products or related services, under which conditions and on what basis. Accordingly, Member States should not adopt or maintain additional national requirements on those matters falling within the scope of this Regulation, unless explicitly provided for in this Regulation, since this would affect the direct and uniform application of this Regulation.

(14) Physical products that obtain, generate or collect, by means of their components or operating systems or embedded software, data concerning their performance, use or environment and that are able to communicate that data via a publicly available electronic communications service (often referred to as the Internet of Things) should be covered by this Regulation with the exception of prototypes. Electronic communications services include land- based telephone networks, television cable networks, satellite-based networks and near-field communication networks. Such products may include vehicles, home equipment and consumer goods, medical and health devices or agricultural and industrial machinery. The data represent the digitalisation of user actions and events and should accordingly be accessible to the user, while information derived or inferred from this data, where lawfully held, should not be considered within scope of this Regulation. Such data are potentially valuable to the user and support innovation and the development of digital and other services protecting the environment, health and the circular economy, in particular though facilitating the maintenance and repair of the products in question.This Regulation applies to products placed on the marketin the Union and thus does not apply to products in development stage such as prototypes.

(15) In contrast, certain products that are primarily designed to display or play content, or to record and transmit content, amongst others for the use by an online service should not be covered by this Regulation. Such products include, for example, personal computers, servers, tablets and smart phones, cameras, webcams, sound recording systems and text scanners. They require human input to produce various forms of content, such as text documents, sound files, video files, games, digital maps.

(15 a) The use and access to sensitive data generated by a product regulated by a specific sectoral rules is without prejudice to those rules.
Amendment 148 #
(17) Data generated by the use of a product or related service include data recorded intentionally by the user. Such data include also data generated as a by- product of the user’s action, such as diagnostics data, and without any action by the user, such as when the product is in ‘standby mode’, and data recorded during periods when the product is switched off. Such data should include data in the form and format in which they are generated by the product, but not pertain to data resulting from any softwaincluding data pre -process that calculates derivative data from such data as such software process may be subject to intellectual property rights.ed using the product’s own computing capacity

Recital 18
(18) The user of a product should be understood as the legal or natural person, such as a business or, consumer or public sector body , which has purchased, rented or leased the product. Depending on the legal title under which he uses it, such a user bears the risks and enjoys the benefits of using the connected product and should enjoy also the access to the data it generates. The user should therefore be entitled to derive benefit from data generated by that product and any related service.

Recital 20
Recital 20
(20) In case several persons or entities own a product or are party to a lease or rent agreement and benefit from access to a related service, reasonable efforts should be made in the design of the product or related service or the relevant interface so that all personeach user can have access to data they it generates can have access to data they generated only to such data. In case several manufacturers or related services providers have sold, rent out or leased products or services integrated together to the same user, the user should turn to each of the manufacturers or related service providers with who it has a contractual agreement. Users of products that generate data typically require a user account to be set up. This allows for identification of the user by the manufacturer as well as a means to communicate to exercise and process data access requests. Manufacturers or designers of a product that is typically used by several persons should put in place the necessary mechanism and joint consent that allow separate user accounts for individual persons, where relevant, or the possibility for several persons to use the same user account. Access should be granted to the user upon simple request mechanisms granting automatic execution, not requiring examination or clearance by the manufacturer or data holder. This means that data should only be made available when the user actually wants this. Where automated execution of the data access request is not possible, for instance, via a user account or accompanying mobile application provided with the product or service, the manufacturer should inform the user how the data may be accessed.

Recital 21
(21) Products may be designed to make certain data directly available from an on- device data storage or from a remote server to which the data are communicated. Where on-device access is technically supported, the manufacturer shall make this means of access also available to third-party service providers or the user. Access to the on-device data storage may be enabled via cable-based or wireless local area networks connected to a publicly available electronic communications service or a mobile network. The server may be the manufacturer’s own local server capacity or that of a third party or a cloud service provider who functions as data holder. TheyProducts may be designed to permit the user or a third party to process the data on the product or on a computing instance of the manufacturer or in an environment chosen by the user or the authorised. Where either option is available, the user or third party shall choose their preferred method.

Recital 25
Recital 25
(25) In sectors characterised by the concentration of a small number of manufacturers supplying end users, there are only limited options available to users with regard to sharing data with those manufacturers. In such circumstances, cContractual agreements may be insufficient to achieve the objective of user empowerment. The data tends to remain under the control of the manufacturers or other data holders, making it difficult for users to obtain value from the data generated by the equipment they purchase or lease. Consequently, there is limited potential for innovative smaller businesses to offer data-based solutions in a competitive manner and for a diverse data economy in Europe. This Regulation should therefore build on recent developments in specific sectors, such as the Code of Conduct on agricultural data sharing by contractual agreement. Sectoral legislation may be brought forward to address sector-specific needs and objectives. Furthermore, the data holder should not use any data generated by the use of the product or related service in order to derive insights about the economic situation of the user or its assets or production methods or the use in any other way that could undermine the commercial position of the user on the markets it is active on. This would, for instance, involve using knowledge about the overall performance of a business or a farm in contractual negotiations with the user on potential acquisition of the user’s products or agricultural produce to the user’s detriment, or for instance, using such information to feed in larger databases on certain markets in the aggregate (,e.g. databases on crop yields for the upcoming harvesting season) as such use could affect the user negatively in an indirect manner. The user should be given the necessary technical interface to manage permissions, preferably with granular permission options (such as “allow once” or “allow while using this app or service”), including the option to withdraw permission.

Recital 25 a (new)
(25 a) Data users should have the priority on benefitting from the value created by the use of the product. Data holders should ensure that non-personal they receive from the connected product are primarily used for the fulfilment of their contractual obligations to the user. This is without the prejudice of the data holders capability to use the non-personal data generated to improve the functioning of the connected product or related service, to develop new products or services or to enrich, manipulate or aggregate it with other data.

Recital 28
(28) The user should be free to use the data for any lawful purpose. This includes providing the data the user has received exercising the right under this Regulation to a third party offering an aftermarket service that may be in competition with a service provided by the data holder, or to instruct the data holder to do so. The request should also be valid regardless of whether the request is put forward by the user or an authorised third party acting on users behalf, such as authorised data intermediation service in the meaning of the Regulation (EU) 2022/868. The data holder should ensure that the data made available to the third party is as accurate, complete, reliable, relevant and up-to-date as the data the data holder itself may be able or entitled to access from the use of the product or related service. Any trade secrets or intellectual property rights should be respected in handling the data. It is important to preserve incentives to invest in products with functionalities based on the use of data from sensors built into that product. The aim of this Regulation should accordingly be understood as to foster the development of new, innovative products or related services, stimulate innovation on aftermarkets, but also stimulate the development of entirely novel services making use of the data, including based on data from a variety of products or related services. At the same time, it aims to avoid undermining the investment incentives for the type of product from which the data are obtained, for instance, by the use of data to develop a competing product.

Recital 31
(31) Data generated by the use of a product or related service should only be made available to a third party such as authorised data intermediation service in the meaning of the Regulation (EU) 2022/868 at the request of the user. This Regulation accordingly complements the right provided under Article 20 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679. That Article provides for a right of data subjects to receive personal data concerning them in a structured, commonly used and machine- readable format, and to port those data to other controllers, where those data are processed on the basis of Article 6(1), point (a), or Article 9(2), point (a), or of a contract pursuant to Article 6(1), point (b). Data subjects also have the right to have the personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, but only where technically feasible. Article 20 specifies that it pertains to data provided by the data subject but does not specify whether this necessitates active behaviour on the side of the data subject or whether it also applies to situations where a product or related service by its design observes the behaviour of a data subject or other information in relation to a data subject in a passive manner. The right under this Regulation complements the right to receive and port personal data under Article 20 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 in several ways. It grants users the right to access and make available to a third party to any data generated by the use of a product or related service, irrespective of its nature as personal data, of the distinction between actively provided or passively observed data, and irrespective of the legal basis of processing. Unlike the technical obligations provided for in Article 20 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, this Regulation mandates and ensures the technical feasibility of third party access for all types of data coming within its scope, whether personal or non-personal. This Regulation also allows direct data sharing from users to third parties. This Regulation precludes the data holder or the third party from directly or indirectly charging consumers or data subjects a fee, compensation or costs for sharing data or for accessing it. This Regulation does not directly or indirectly incentivise the commercialisation or trade of personal data It also allows the data holder to set reasonable compensation to be met by third parties, but not by the user, for any cost incurred in providing direct access to the data generated by the user’s product. If a data holder and third party are unable to agree terms for such direct access, the data subject should be in no way prevented from exercising the rights contained in Regulation (EU) 2016/679, including the right to data portability, by seeking remedies in accordance with that Regulation. It is to be understood in this context that, in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679, a contractual agreement does not allow for the processing of special categories of personal data by the data holder or the third party.

Recital 56
(56) In situations of exceptional need, it may be necessary for public sector bodies or Union institutions, agencies or bodies to use data held by an enterprise to respond to public emergencies or in other exceptional casesPublic sector bodies are faced with several interrelated challenges spanning from pandemics and climate change to urban planning and mobility. Privately held data has a high potential to help solving these problems in the public interest. By informing decision making, providing for new scientific insights and resolving policy issues, private held data enablse more targeted interventions and improvement of public service delivery, bringing about significant savings for the public budget. This is why situations it may be necessary for public sector bodies or Union institutions, agencies or bodies to use data held by an enterprise to respond to public emergencies such as public health or climate emergencies, in other exceptional cases such as purposes of legitimate public interest explicitly provided by under Union or national law. Research-performing organisations and research-funding organisations could also be organised as public sector bodies or bodies governed by public law. To limit the burden on businesses, micro and small enterprises should be exempted from the obligation to provide public sector bodies and Union institutions, agencies or bodies data in situations of exceptional need.

(56 a) The business-to-government data sharing should be driven by the over- arching principles outlined in the High Level Expert Group on Business-to- Government. These principles are: proportionality of the use of private-sector data, data use limitation, “do no harm”, compensation, non-discrimination, limitation mitigation, transparency and societal participation, accountability and fair and ethical data use.

(57) In case of public emergencies, such as public health emergencies, emergencies resulting from environmental degradation and major natural disasters including those aggravated by climate change, as well as human-induced major disasters, such as major cybersecurity incidents, the public interest resulting from the use of the data will outweigh the interests of the data holders to dispose freely of the data they hold. In such a case, data holders should be placed under an obligation to make the data available to public sector bodies or to Union institutions, agencies or bodies upon their request. The existence of a public emergency ishould be determined according to the respective procedures in the Member States or of relevant international organisations.

(58) An exceptional need may also arise when a public sector body can demonstrate that the data are necessary either to prevent a public emergency, or to assist recovery from a public emergency, in circumstances that are reasonably proximate to the public emergency in question. Where the exceptional need is not justified by the need to respond to, prevent or assist recovery from a public emergency, the public sector body or the Union institution, agency or body should demonstrate that the lack of timely access to and the use of the data requested prevents it from effectively fulfilling a specificor exercising a task in the legitimate public interest that has been explicitly provided in lawas provided for in national law. The tasks, aimed at improving the efficient provision of public services and evidence-based public policymaking as well as gaining enforcement of existing laws or regulations, can include but should not be limited to, improving traffic and mobility, environmental sustainability, affordable housing, city planning as well as facilitating the development, production and dissemination of official statistics. Such exceptional need may also occur in other situations, for example in relation to the timely compilation of official statistics when data is not otherwise available or when the burden on statistical respondents will be considerably reduced. At the same time, the public sector body or the Union institution, agency or body should, outside the case of responding to, preventing or assisting recovery from a public emergency, demonstrate that no alternative means for obtaining the data requested exists and that the data cannot be obtained in a timely manner through the laying down of the necessary data provision obligations in new legislation. This covers situations where the existence of a reporting obligation fort the provision of the data in scope of the request exists but is in itself insufficient to guarantee the availability of data of the necessary quality, granularity, and timeliness or where the said obligation is otherwise not fit for the specific use purpose sought.

(66) When reusing data provided by data holders, public sector bodies and Union institutions, agencies or bodies should respect both existing applicable legislation and contractual obligations to which the data holder is subject. . Public administration authorities should coordinate their requests for data and pursue best efforts to ensure that businesses are obliged to supply the same data only once. Where the disclosure of trade secrets of the data holder to public sector bodies or to Union institutions, agencies or bodies is strictly necessary to fulfil the purpose for which the data has been requested, confidentiality of such disclosure should be ensured to the data holder.

(69 a) Unnecessarily high “data egress fees”, or data transfer costs have the potential to restrict competition and cause lock-in effects for the customers of data processing services, by reducing incentives to choose a different or additional service provider. Therefore, the gradual withdrawal of the charges associated with switching data processing services should specifically include withdrawing any “egress fees” charged by the data processing services to a customer.

(79) Standardisation and semantic interoperability should play a key role to provide technical solutions to ensure interoperability. In order to facilitate the conformity with the requirements for interoperability, it is necessary to provide for a presumption of conformity for interoperability solutions that meet harmonised standards or parts thereof in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council. These standards should be developed in open, technology neutral and inclusive way line with Chapter II of the Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012. The Commission should adopt common specifications in areas where no harmonised standards exist or where they are insufficient in order to further enhance interoperability for the common European data spaces, application programming interfaces, cloud switching as well as smart contracts. Additionally, common specifications in the different sectors could remain to be adopted, in accordance with Union or national sectoral law, based on the specific needs of those sectors. Reusable data structures and models (in form of core vocabularies), ontologies, metadata application profile, reference data in the form of core vocabulary, taxonomies, code lists, authority tables, thesauri should also be part of the technical specifications for semantic interoperability. Furthermore, the Commission should be enabled to mandate the development of harmonised standards for the interoperability of data processing services in consultation with the European Data Innovation Board as outlined in the Article 30 of the Regulation (EU) No 2022/868.

(80 a) The number of devices connected to the Internet, both in enterprise networks and consumer households, including machines, sensors, and cameras that make up the Internet of Things (IoT), continues to grow at a steady pace. Since it is expected that by the end of the decade a number of connected devices across the Union will be extremely high, providing for digital identity of IoT devices and their secure authentication is becoming an urgent priority. International Data Corporation estimates that the number of connected IoT devices is expected to reach 41.6 billion by 2025. While an increasing number of devices is connected to the internet, security and resilience are not sufficiently built in by design, leading to insufficient cybersecurity. Ensuring secure digital identities for IoT devices needs to be a continuous, automated process but this needs to start at the point of manufacture and continue throughout the device lifecycle. Connected devices create a data-rich network which means improved functionality and potential revenue growth for organisations, but they also come with significant business and compliance risks. These begin to outweigh the strategic benefits unless businesses and governments prioritise securing digital identities. By extending the concept of digital identity and attestation of attributes to IoT devices, the European Digital Identity Framework can help mitigate cybersecurity risks and add value to the data exchanged by adding a new trust layer to network and information systems, communications networks, digital products, services and devices used by citizens, organisations and businesses.
