This report outlines non-binding Model Contractual Terms (MCTs) and Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) for B2B data sharing and cloud computing, developed by an expert group under Article 41 of the Data Act. The MCTs cover various data sharing scenarios including data holders to users, users to data recipients, and voluntary sharing. The SCCs address fairness, switching, termination, and security in cloud computing contracts. The document provides detailed templates and guidance to support fair, transparent, and lawful data access and use across the EU. These models are voluntary, designed to align with the Data Act, GDPR, and other relevant legislation.
