The European Commission has initiated two specification proceedings to support Google in meeting its obligations under the Digital Markets Act (DMA). The first proceeding addresses Google’s interoperability requirements under Article 6(7), focusing on granting third-party AI providers equal access to Android features used by Google’s own AI services, such as Gemini. The second proceeding examines data sharing under Article 6(11), aiming to define the scope, anonymization methods, and access conditions for anonymized search data. The Commission plans to finalize these proceedings within six months, with preliminary findings shared within three months. These proceedings do not prejudice the Commission’s authority to enforce compliance, including potential penalties, but aim to clarify compliance measures for third-party innovation and competition.
