Abstract
One of the three areas regulated in the Data Governance Act is the re-use of certain categories of protected data which are held by public sector entities. Such protected data includes personal data insofar as it exceeds the limits of EU regulations about the re-use of public sector information. The text shows the relationships between the DGA and other legal acts (in particular the GDPR), ways of ensuring personal data protection under re-use and new solutions included in the DGA (e.g. de-anonymisation).
