The first data protection principle states that organisations, including social media companies, must have legitimate grounds for collecting and using personal data and handle people's personal data only in ways they would reasonably expect. Where organisations breach data protection principles, they are liable for enforcement action from the ICO.<\/p>
<\/p>
We are currently legislating for a new Data Protection Bill. The Bill will set new standards for protecting general data, in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation, giving people more control over use of their data, and providing new rights to move or delete personal data.<\/p>

As part of the work on the Digital Charter, which was announced in the Queen's speech, the Government is considering a range of options to counter internet harms. This includes an Internet Safety Strategy, published on 11 October, which will look at how we can support users so that everyone can access the benefits of the internet safely. The objectives of our Strategy are underpinned by three key principles. We believe that what is unacceptable offline should be unacceptable online, all users should be empowered to manage online risks and stay safe and that technology companies have a responsibility to their users.<\/p>

The availability and pricing of mortgages is ultimately a decision for lenders, and the Government does not seek to directly intervene in these.<\/p>
First time buyers can benefit from a tax-free Government bonus of up to £3,000 if they save with a Help to Buy:ISA. The bonus will represent 25 per cent of the amount saved, up to a maximum of £3,000 on £12,000 of savings. The bonus will be calculated and paid when you buy your first home, available on homes up to £250,000, or £450,000 in London.<\/p>
In addition, the Government is supportive of efforts to help borrowers access credit, including mortgages. The Government will introduce new Open Banking standards from January 2018, allowing consumers to share data directly from their payment accounts in a secure way. This will enable quicker and more accurate credit reporting, allowing lenders to take other factors into account when assessing a borrower's creditworthiness, such as a history of meeting rent payments on time.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4014", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Sir Alok Sharma"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Reading West"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Alok Sharma"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-11-20", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-11-20T15:27:37.253Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "7"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Communities and Local Government"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Communities and Local Government"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-11-10", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Owner Occupation"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, what steps his Department is taking to support home ownership among people with poor or no credit history.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4673", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jo Platt"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Leigh"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Jo Platt"} ], "uin" : "112340"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/786223", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/786223/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
