Abstract: Data sharing helps to make full use of each other’s data and enable the digital economy. With the gradual rise of corporate data sharing, the frequent occurrence of data leakage events highlights the dilemma of data sharing, leakage and supervision, which infringes on the data assets of the leaked party. Our paper aims to design an effective data supervision mechanism and achieve the stability of data sharing alliance. Therefore, this paper considers the data technology capabilities of both parties of the data sharing alliance and the benefits and loss of data leakage, establishes the game model and supervision mechanism of data sharing, leakage and supervision under the condition of complete information, and analyzes the game equilibrium and the influence of different supervision levels on the company’s data sharing and leakage behavior. The results show that the company sharing and leaking behavior is affected by both the level of data supervision fines and the relative technical level. Our model can make up for the weakness of the low-tech company, control the company’s choice of leaking behaviors, and ensure the stability of data sharing alliance by designing reasonable data supervision mechanism, especially the severe data supervision strategy.
