When the final code is published, it will include guidance for organisations on how to make sure that any profiling for direct marketing purposes is done in a way that is fair, lawful and transparent. The ICO will also make available practical tools alongside the code, to help support organisations in their direct marketing activities.<\/p><p>The ICO has a duty to consult with the Secretary of State and other interested parties on the development of the code and the ICO engaged with DCMS during the consultation phases last year. It will submit the code formally for the Secretary of State to lay in Parliament in due course.<\/p><p> <\/p>"}

They also need to have affordable access and have the devices and skills to be able to take part in the digital economy.<\/p><p>On devices, the government is tackling the digital divide for adults with learning disabilities through our £2.5m Digital Lifeline fund. Throughout the pandemic, this fund has provided tablets, data and free digital support to over 5,000 people with learning disabilities, enabling them to connect with friends and family, and access services and support groups, promoting overall well being. The Lifeline fund, now in the process of evaluation, also provided mentoring and sustained support for users to increase their digital skills and confidence.<\/p><p>The Government is making sure that training is available for all adults wishing to acquire digital skills. In order to guarantee opportunities to develop essential digital skills, the government introduced a new digital entitlement for adults with low digital skills to undertake improved basic skills qualifications free of charge. Essential Digital Skills qualifications (EDSQs), introduced alongside the digital entitlement at entry level and level 1, are a new qualification type based on employer-supported national standards for essential digital skills, which set out the digital skills people need to get on in life and work. (Level one qualifications are GCSE grades 3, 2, 1 or grades D, E, F, G).<\/p><p> <\/p>"}
