This online conference will present the new EU Data Act, which is a step towards digital private law. It has important implications for a wide range of businesses, as it introduces new obligations for manufacturers and service providers to share data from connected products and related services with users and third parties.

Contracts are at the heart of the Data Act. Lawyers will therefore need to advise their clients on data access; drafting and negotiating data sharing agreements is now required.

Key topics include:

• Content and scope of the EU Data Act
• Data sharing in B2B and B2C
• Model contractual terms for data sharing
• Data sharing via smart contracts
• Cloud contracts
• The Data Act and third States

Who should attend?

Legal practitioners and compliance officers, inhouse counsel, public sector bodies, data protection officers, representatives of consumer and business organisations, academics.
