tabling member printed	The Lord Bishop of St Albans
uin	HL1406
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/09/2017 answer text <p>The use of personal data for the purpose of targeted online advertising is subject to safeguards found in the Data Protection Act 1998 and the Privacy and Electronic Communication Regulations 2003. Updated regulation will be put in place in May 2018 when the Data Protection Bill applies new standards, comprising those in the General Data Protection Regulation, specifically requiring, either clearer and affirmative consent from individuals to be sought, or applying additional safeguards where data processing is allowed in the absence of consent.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>All betting firms are required to have a licence to operate from the Gambling Commission. A condition in the Licence Conditions and Codes of Practice holds licensed operators responsible for the actions and behaviours of their affiliates. The Commission published an advice note earlier this year on ensuring direct marketing is not sent to those who have self-excluded from gambling.</p><p> </p><p>Operators and affiliates are required to comply with the requirements of the Privacy and Electronic Communication Regulations and the Data Protection Act, and the Information Commissioner’s Office may take enforcement action if there is evidence of a breach. The Advertising Standards Authority also has the power to take action if it were to receive evidence of irresponsible targeting, for example deliberately sending certain commercial messages to vulnerable groups in a way that exploited their vulnerability. This could be under general responsibility rules, in relation to the targeting, or specific rules on prohibited approaches regarding the content of the advertisement.</p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Ashton of Hyde question first answered 20/09/2017 13:36:44 answering member 4247 label Biography information for Lord Ashton of Hyde
