Article 12 Champ d'application des obligations applicables aux détenteurs de données tenus au titre du droit de l'Union de mettre des données à disposition


Summary What does Article 12 of the Data act regulation say?

This is a short but important framing article that sets the scope for the entire chapter on fair and non-discriminatory data sharing in business-to-business contexts.

It establishes when the chapter's rules apply, namely when a data holder is legally required to share data with a data recipient, whether that obligation stems from Article 5 of this Regulation or from other applicable Union or national law.

It also contains a protective provision ensuring that contractual terms cannot be used to sidestep the chapter's rules.

Important points:

  • This chapter applies to data holders that are obligated to make data available to a data recipient in a business-to-business context, under Article 5 or other applicable law.
  • Any contractual term in a data sharing agreement that excludes, derogates from, or varies the effect of this chapter, to the detriment of one party or the user, is not binding on that party.
  • Article 5 of this Regulation is a key trigger for the application of this chapter, making the two articles closely linked.

Springlex's summary of the article is a reading aid, not a substitute for the legal text.

    1. Le présent chapitre s'applique lorsque, dans le cadre de relations entre entreprises, un détenteur de données est tenu, au titre de l'article 5 ou des dispositions applicables du droit de l'Union ou de la législation nationale adoptée conformément au droit de l'Union, de mettre des données à la disposition d'un destinataire de données.

    1. Toute clause contractuelle figurant dans un accord de partage de données qui, au détriment d'une partie ou, le cas échéant, au détriment de l'utilisateur, exclut l'application du présent chapitre, y déroge ou en modifie les effets, n'est pas contraignante pour cette partie.
