Data Governance Act – new rules and fees

This law implements the EU Data Governance Act in Poland. It designates authorities responsible for data sharing, sets fees for reusing public sector data, and establishes penalties for violations. For citizens, this means more transparency and potentially easier access to public data, while businesses face new obligations and potential fines.
Key points
The Minister of Digital Affairs will run a single information point and a public data resource register.
The President of the Personal Data Protection Office (UODO) will oversee data intermediation services and data altruism organizations.
Fines for violations: up to 200,000 PLN for failure to notify, up to 2,000,000 PLN for breaching service conditions or illegal data transfers to third countries.
The President of Statistics Poland (GUS) will assist public bodies in evaluating requests for data reuse.
The law amends the Public Statistics Act and the Personal Data Protection Act, adding new tasks for the President of GUS and the President of UODO.
