Design and Research of China's Solution for the Confirmation, Authorization and Use of Public Fitness Data Rights

The confirmation and authorization of data rights is the foundation for data circulation and sharing, yet there are numerous challenges in the current rights confirmation and authorization of public fitness data in China. Through interviews, text analysis, and case studies, this study constructs a China-specific system for the authorization of public sports data. Through methods such as interviews, text analysis, and case studies, this study constructs a China’s solution for establishing a public sports data rights confirmation and authorization system based on the “Twenty Articles on Data” and the unique characteristics of public fitness data, drawing from the labor empowerment theory, “rights over one’s own property-rights over the property of another,”“copyright and neighboring rights,” and the three-tiered separation of land ownership, contracting rights, and operating rights in China’s urban and rural land system reform. This is of profound significance for clarifying the attribution of rights confirmation institutions, the subjects of rights, their main powers, and the way of realization, and it is also the key to truly implementing the rights outlined in the “Twenty Articles on Data”. The regulatory pathways include: scientifically defining the legal concepts in the confirmation, authorization and use of public fitness data rights; strengthening top-level design to construct a “trial system, explore new paths” for the confirmation and authorization of public fitness data rights; clarifying ownership, usage rights, and management rights, and reasonably formulating local administrative regulations for the confirmation and authorization of public fitness data rights; hierarchical and classified management to ensure the security, compliance, and effective use of public fitness data; and efforts to improve the level of security governance in the public fitness data element market.
