Plattform Industrie 4.0 welcomes the EDPB consultation on its Pseudonymization Guidelines ("Guidelines"), which touches upon a topic of high importance for Industrie 4.0 and the further digitalization of the manufacturing industry. This includes the development of data spaces (e. g. Factory-X and Manufacturing-X as a whole).While agreeing with many of the points, Plattform Industrie 4.0 sees a considerable need for further clarification, amendments and guidance.
