Description
Dedicated Q&A session on data access for researchers under the Digital Services Act (DSA)
Under article 40 of the Digital Services Act (DSA), vetted researchers will be able to request data from very large online platforms (VLOPs) and search engines (VLOSEs) to conduct research on systemic risks in the EU.
A draft delegated act clarifies the procedures leading to the sharing of data by VLOPs and VLOSEs with vetted researchers. It also specifies conditions for providing such data and establishes a DSA data access portal to serve as a one-stop-shop for researchers, data providers and Digital Services Coordinators (DSCs).
The delegated act has been published for consultation, and you can provide feedback here until 26 November.
The European Commission is hosting a Q&A session on the delegated act, taking place online and targeted at researchers who would like to learn more about the delegated act and how it might benefit their research.
It will take place on 19 November 2024, 10:00-11:30, and you can sign up here.
