Article 21: Cooperation with Competent Authorities
This article states that companies providing high-risk AI systems must, when asked by a relevant authority, provide all the information needed to show that their AI system meets the required standards. This information must be in a language that the authority can easily understand. If asked, these companies must also allow the authority to access automatically generated logs of the AI system, as long as they control these logs. Any information obtained by the authority must be treated confidentially.
