"The Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport (DCMS)
has published a statement of intent outlining planned reforms in the Data
Protection Bill. Reforms include: giving individuals more control over their
personal data by providing easier access; parents or guardians will be required
to give consent to information services where a child is under the age of 13;
the right to be forgotten whereby individuals will be able to ask for their
personal data to be erased - this will include provision to allow people to
require social media platforms to delete information they posted during their
childhood."
