Mapping data portability initiatives, opportunities and challenges
Data portability has become an essential tool for enhancing access to and sharing
of data across digital services and platforms. This report explores to what extent
data portability can empower users (natural and legal persons) to play a more active
role in the re-use of their data across digital services and platforms. It also examines
how data portability can help increase interoperability and data flows and thus enhance
competition and innovation by reducing switching costs and lock-in effects.
