Proposal for a regulation
Recital 10
(10) Re-using information that is available on ESAP can improve the functioning of the internal market and promote the development of new services that combine and make use of such information. It is therefore necessary, where justified on grounds of a public interest objective, to allow re-use of the information that is available on ESAP for purposes other than the purposes for which the information was drawn up. However, the use and re-use of that information should be subject to objective, proportionate and non-discriminatory conditions. For that purpose, conditions corresponding to those laid down in open, standard licences within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2019/1024 of the European Parliament and of the Council27 should apply. The licensing terms of those standard licences should allow for data and content to be freely accessible, used, modified and shared by anyone for any purpose. ESMA should bear no liability for the use and re-use of information accessible on ESAP. The submission of information by the collection bodies should either not be subject to conditions or be subject to an open standard licence enabling the licensing terms applying for information accessible in the ESAP. _________________ 27 Directive (EU) 2019/1024 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 June 2019 on open data and the re-use of public sector information (OJ L 172, 26.6.2019, p. 56).

For any processing of personal data in the context of providing information via ESAP, the collection bodies, and ESMA in its capacity as operatocontroller of ESAP, should ensure that Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Regulation (EU) 2018/1725 of the European Parliament and of the Council28 are complied with. _________________ 28 Regulation (EU) 2018/1725 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 October 2018 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data by the Union institutions, bodies, offices and agencies and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Regulation (EC) No 45/2001 and Decision No 1247/2002/EC (OJ L 295, 21.11.2018, p. 39).

(16) In order for the information to be comparable over time, users should have access to past information. It is therefore necessary to require ESAP to provide access to information for a reasonable period of time, to the extent compatible with other applicable provisions of Union law. For that purpose, ESMA should ensure that no personal data are made accessible for longer than necessary as provided for under Union law. In order to enable ESMA and the collection bodies to prepare the operation of ESAP, ESAP should only provide access to the information submittedcurrently available as from 1 January 2024.
