It is also a term used for computers !

Don’t think it applies in this case.

It means the needed information has to be scrolled to be seen.

This is more a case of header versus main body.

“ In web design, the term “below the fold” refers to the content located below the bottom of a browser window, or approximately 600 pixels from the top of the page. This content is not immediately visible to users and requires them to scroll down to access it. The concept was adapted from print journalism, where information deemed less important was traditionally placed below the fold in newspapers.”

Yes, it is a newspaper term, but aptly applies to webpages also. The refence in web terms would be being below the point at where you would see it on a computer screen without have to scroll down.
