Data Breach Claims
Whenever you provide personal or sensitive data to a business, or some other organisation, you’re trusting them to keep your data safe and secure. You should be able to rest easy knowing that they will:
- Only collect the data they need
- Keep the data only for as long as necessary
- Secure your data and prevent unauthorised access
Unfortunately, this doesn’t always happen. So, if your information has been shared publicly, accessed without your permission, or used without your knowledge, you may be able to make a claim.
We can help you claim compensation in excess of £2,000 for a data protection breach.
