This guide serves as the first point of reference for all those who have to comply with or apply the Data Governance Act ('DGA'). Tightly structured within a clear framework it provides an overall view of the DGA as well as offering more detailed information on the individual articles. It goes further, addressing pressing follow up questions such as legal protection. This will be invaluable to companies, public authorities, and consultants as well as courts and research institutions coming to grips with the DGA.
