(10) The categories of data held by public sector bodies which should be subject to re-use under this Regulation fall outside the scope of Open Data Directive that excludes data which is not accessible due to commercial and statistical confidentiality and data that is included in works or other subject matter over which third parties have intellectual property rights. Commercially confidential data includes data protected by trade secrets, protected know-how and any other information the undue disclosure of which would have an impact on the market position or financial health of the undertaking. This Regulation should apply to personal data that fall outside the scope of Open Data Directive insofar as the access regime excludes or restricts access to such data for reasons of data protection, privacy and the integrity of the individual, in particular in accordance with data protection rules. The re-use of data, which may contain trade secrets, should take place without prejudice to Trade Secrets Directive, which sets out the framework for the lawful acquisition, use or disclosure of trade secrets.
