On 9 December 2025, the Data Protection Authority (IMY) released a report on personal data processing for training artificial intelligence models in custody matters. The project, conducted with the law firm Familjens Jurist within the IMY regulatory sandbox, evaluated the use of custody case data to predict high-conflict scenarios. The inquiry focused on whether further processing for AI training complies with General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) principles, specifically purpose limitation. The report states that synthesising personal data constitutes further processing and is generally compatible with original purposes, provided it adheres to GDPR requirements. Given the sensitive nature of custody information, the IMY noted that additional safeguards, such as opt-out mechanisms for data subjects, are necessary. With safeguards, the IMY concluded that training models with synthetic data could be considered permissible.
On 16 October 2025, the Swedish Competition Authority released a report examining contract terms used by food delivery platforms, including Foodora, Uber Eats and Wolt with restaurants. The report found that exclusive agreements are rare. The report found that in 2020, 51% of restaurants used only one platform and by 2024, that dropped to 18%. It also found that most restaurants use multiple platforms, and exclusive contracts no longer pose a major competitive concern. However, price parity clauses are widespread. It also found that about 31-34% of Foodora's restaurants report that these clauses prevent them from offering lower prices on competing platforms. The Authority viewed horizontal price parity as potentially anti-competitive.
On 10 October 2025, the Swedish Government appointed the Post and Telecom Authority (PTS) as the competent authority for the European Union's (EU) Data Regulation on fair access to and use of data. The Regulation aims to create a uniform EU framework for secure and fair data sharing. It gives individuals and companies stronger rights to move and use their data. It covers data generated by smart devices, machines, and services.
