EU Data Act: Orgalim launches practical guide for tech manufacturers
The EU Data Act will take effect on 12 September 2025, hence technology manufacturers across Europe need to be ready for the significant changes to data handling and sharing obligations that come with it.
Regulation 2023/2854 – commonly referred to as the Data Act – will introduce new compliance requirements for all connected products (IoT devices) and related digital services, affecting both business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer (B2C) operations.
Practical, actionable guidance for tech manufacturers
To support companies in navigating these new rules, Orgalim has released a comprehensive guide specifically designed for manufacturers. The guide aims to break down the complexities of the Data Act, offering practical use cases, actionable checklists and helpful diagrams to make the complex process as simple as possible.
As of 12 September 2025, most of the obligations of the EU Data Act will apply. By then, your company needs to be compliant with new regulations on:
- Mandatory IoT data sharing in B2B and B2C settings
- New contractual obligations regarding data sharing with certain customers and third-party service providers
- Mandatory disclosure of trade secrets in certain cases
- And much more!
If your company is found not to be compliant when the new regulation enters into application, you could face significant fines – so now is the time to prepare!
