Regulation (EU) 2023/2854
Your right to switch cloud and data services, and to data from connected products.

Applies
Product design duty for products placed on the market after this date
Providers can no longer charge you for switching to another cloud or data service
Chapter IV for older contracts
You may switch data-processing services: no obstacles, a notice period, help to export. Switching charges are banned from 12 January 2027 (Article 29).
Rights over data from connected products you own.
No obstacle to leaving, closing is free, export on request within 30 days and self-service export. We state what we do, not that the Act requires it.
The EU is discussing these. Until they are adopted and published in the Official Journal, the current text applies.
Would change the GDPR, the Data Act, the cookie rules and incident reporting under NIS2, and would fold the Data Governance Act into the Data Act.
