Part of: How licensing works

Explanation#

The EU Data Governance Act regulates some data intermediation services.

Owners retain ownership of your original records and approve every release.

Rights and privacy#

  • Confirm customer, vendor and employee agreements allow the use
  • Remove or de-identify personal details before anything leaves the company
  • Approve the final dataset and permitted uses in writing

How licensing works#

A business describes its data, buyer demand is assessed, scope and permitted use are proposed, the data is prepared and de-identified, an agreement is signed, and the approved dataset is delivered. See data licensing for detail.
