European regulation

Data Act

A European legal framework for fair access to and use of data, cloud switching and interoperability.

Our claim statusVerified currentApplies since 12 September 2025

Why it matters

A shared foundation for collaboration at scale.

The Data Act changes who can access and use data generated by connected products and services. It also introduces requirements for fair sharing conditions, switching between data-processing services and interoperability within and between data spaces.

Make data rights and participant roles explicit

Express access and use conditions clearly

Support portability and interoperable interfaces

Retain evidence of agreements and execution

How we support and align

From standard to demonstrable design choices.

We deliberately distinguish architectural alignment, implementation and formal conformity.

01

Our ecosystem model distinguishes the Data Rights Holder, data provider and data consumer.

02

Access and usage conditions can be modelled, applied and evidenced throughout an exchange.

03

API-first, cloud-agnostic architecture supports portability and limits avoidable lock-in.

04

We maintain the regulation as verified context; this is not a claim of legal certification.
