Wang Nian — Data Source's Rights as a 'Fair Use' Right Alongside the Three Rights
Wang Nian (Tsinghua Law) takes on the unresolved fourth-right question in the Data 20 Articles framework: what is the data source's right (数据来源者权), and how does it relate to the three rights (hold/use/operate)? Drawing on the 'data symbiosis' (数据共生) framework from the ALI-ELI Data Economy Principles and the EU Data Act, Wang argues that pre-existing legal entitlements — privacy, PI rights, IP, trade secrets — cover only part of the source's interest, leaving a residual that needs an independent legal protection. He frames the data-source right as a 'fair use right' (公平使用权): a contractual-relationship right against the specific data processor, distinct from the property-style three rights, that captures the value contribution of the source's participation in data co-creation. The corporate-data-portability analog DCC flagged in our NDA brief gets its doctrinal foundation here.
