Abstract: This paper aims to study China’s data governance policy in the platform economy through reviewing its evolvement, its current challenges, and then provide possible policy recommendations. We review China’s data governance policy to show that its focus has switched from security only, to ensure security but at the same time to facility data market so as to encourage the growth of digital economy. We then discuss the governance of data from three perspectives: as a factor of production, algorithm governance, and personal information protection and data security. We recommend the establishment of data governance committee to coordinate data governance issues, including data licensing and algorithm auditing processes.
