A recent report was published by the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) after the UK regulator looked into Home Office data protection matters.
These kinds of audits are key to ensuring that organisations are upholding the law and ensuring that people are protected at all times. As Leading Data Leak Lawyers, we know all too well how badly people can suffer when the law is broken, having been specialising in this niche area of law for almost a decade.
For victims of serious council data breaches, it can be important to claim compensation to achieve some form of justice for what you have had to go through.
The GDPR can entitle you to claim compensation for any distress that is caused by the loss of control of your personal information, and you could be awarded thousands of pounds in damages. Your Lawyers, as leading Data Leak Lawyers, has a current average settlement award of just over £6,000 in damages alone for mostly individual clients. This shows that the law can ensure that victims are fairly compensated, and that our significant experience in this area of law can lead to high pay-outs.
We know some other firms that have only more recently started looking into data cases are settling quickly and cheaply, which may not allow for full justice for the victims. Our experience, having worked in this area of law for almost a decade, speaks for itself. Never get duped into accepting anything less than you deserve.
You could be eligible to claim compensation if you have suffered due to information stolen from the government that then has had an impact on you.
You have rights, and no one is above the law; not even the government. Whilst it may not always feel like this is the case, they can be held to account for a data breach, and victims can be entitled to seek justice.
Your Lawyers, as leading Data Leak Lawyers, have taken on the government for cases on many occasions, and we are not afraid to do so when it comes to making sure that our clients can access the justice that they deserve. We can even provide No Win, No Fee legal representation for eligible clients now.
At the start of the year, the UK’s data watchdog, the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), issued a report highlighting concerns in respect of Greater Manchester Police data practises.
A number of alarming findings appear to have been made, and the overall headline is that the ICO has little assurance in respect of the force being able to ensure that data protection law is complied with in some areas. Given that the police must store and process a significant wealth of very personal and sensitive information, the report makes for concerning reading.
No one is above the law, and this includes the police. Victims can be eligible to claim data breach compensation when it is the police at fault for a breach, and we can help.
Due to a number of Ministry of Justice data protection issues, it has been reported that the UK data regulator, the ICO, has now published Enforcement Action against the MoJ.
In a recent publication from the ICO (the Information Commissioner’s Office), it was confirmed that the Ministry of Justice was in contravention of vital data protection legislation. The reason cited was due to their failure to provide, with “undue delay”, copies of information for a staggering 7,753 data subjects.
Government data protection breaches can lead to incredibly personal and sensitive information being exposed. The government is not above the law and they can be held accountable, and victims of a data breach can be eligible to claim data breach compensation.
Victims can suffer from considerable distress when personal and sensitive information is misused or exposed. The law can entitle victims to receive damages for any distress that they have suffered from, and our job is to fight for the rights of the victims in pursuing justice.
