Abstract
The article is focused on the issue of discrimination against Roma communities in the use of educational online platforms on account of failure to provide digital consent. The digital education model used during the COVID-19 pandemic in the Slovak Republic somehow forgot about Roma communities, thus preventing Roma students from accessing education through online platforms. This contribution is aimed to foster the discussion of discrimination against marginalized Roma communities in accessing education through online platforms and to point out the inadequacy of national legislation on the provision of digital consent.
