From (1) Act, via (2) Actionables to (3) Action.
You are in control! Switching to another provider. We all know how to do it when it comes to energy, mobile phone contacts, car or health insurance. Your own choice and control are paramount.
- Act
It is high time that everybody becomes familiar and comfortable with the new possibility of switching, in this Digital Age. Thanks to the EU Data Act, it is possible to easily switch providers of data processing services, such as cloud, edge and related services.
Unfair contractual terms, vendor lock-ins, restrictions on choice and control, and other practices that limit competition, service levels and fair pricing in the data market: governments, businesses and citizens can now take effective and targeted action against these practices on the basis of the Data Act.
You decide what you want to eat. Will it be that unhealthy, unexpectedly expensive takeaway, or something without vendor lock-ins, with healthier choices, more autonomy and more control? To ask the question is to answer it.
Here is our well-proven recipe for Healthy Digital Switching: https://arthur.nl/news/recipe-for-healthy-digital-switching/
- Actionables
One of the active ingredients of the recipe are the Standard Contractual Clauses for cloud and any other kind of data computing contracts (SCCs). These actionables are now finally formally available, via Recommendation (EU) 2026/2394, with said SCCs available in all 24 EU languages: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=OJ%3AL_202602394
Arthur’s Legal, Strategies & Systems (ARTHUR) has been part of the Commission’s Expert Group and actively and substantially contributed to shaping, structuring, drafting and finalising these sets. Better make good use of it.
- Action
With the Act and the Actionables, you are now (1) in control and (2) ready for action. Now it is up to you; let’s go.
