Скачать или смотреть UK Data Use and Access Act 2025 Explained in 7 minutes – Digital ID, AI & Infrastructure

Welcome to this comprehensive masterclass on the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025, a landmark piece of legislation that serves as the new "digital operating system" for the United Kingdom.

In this exhaustive deep-dive, we break down how this Act overhauls the UK’s digital rulebook, moving beyond mere updates to create a foundation for the modern AI age. We explore the shifting landscape of data protection, the modernisation of national infrastructure, and the specific mechanism of how this law is being activated across the country.

What we cover in this session:

The Three Pillars of the Act:

Pillar 1: Personal & Business Data – The distinction between customer data (control) and business data (innovation), and the introduction of the Digital Verification Services (DVS) for secure digital identities.

Pillar 2: Physical & Civic Infrastructure – A look at the National Underground Asset Register (NUAR) and the digital transformation of birth and death registrations.

Pillar 3: Information Infrastructure – Understanding the "software update" to GDPR, new rules for automated decision-making in AI, and the creation of the new Information Commission.

The Mechanics of Commencement: A law of this magnitude doesn't start all at once. We explain the "control panel" of Commencement Regulations, with a specific focus on the staggered rollout through 2025.

Commencement No. 5 and Beyond: We take a detailed look at the timeline of activation:

August 2025: Customer and business data rules.

September 2025: National security updates.

November 2025: Intelligence services regulations.

December 2025: Activation of the Digital Verification Service (DVS) framework.

Why It Matters: How this Act delivers on promises of increased data control, safer digital verification, more efficient public services, and a privacy framework fit for the era of Generative AI.

This masterclass is designed for legal professionals, tech enthusiasts, and any UK citizen looking to understand how their relationship with personal information is being redefined.
