(2) For the purposes of this Act, a person secures access to any
program or data held in a computer if by causing a computer to perform any
function he —
(a) alters or erases the program or data;
(b) copies or moves it to any storage medium other than that in
which it is held or to a different location in the storage medium in
which it is held;
(c) uses it; or
(d) causes it to be output from the computer in which it is held
(whether by having it displayed or in any other manner),
and references to access to a program or data (and to an intent to secure such
access) shall be read accordingly.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2)(c), a person uses a program if
the function he causes the computer to perform —
(a) causes the program to be executed; or
(b) is itself a function of the program.
(4) For the purposes of subsection (2)(d), the form in which any
program or data is output (and in particular whether or not it represents a

the case of data, it is capable of being processed by a computer) is
immaterial.
(5) For the purposes of this Act, access of any kind by any person to
any program or data held in a computer is unauthorised or done without
authority if —

question to the program or data; and
(b) he does not have consent to access by him of the kind in
question to the program or data from any person who is so entitled.
(6) A reference in this Act to any program or data held in a computer
includes a reference to any program or data held in any removable storage
medium which is for the time being in the computer; and a computer is to be
regarded as containing any program or data held in any such medium.
