We focus on the latest news surrounding data breaches, leaks and hacks plus daily internet security articles.
In respect of any breaches involving particularly personal and sensitive information, compensation pay-outs can be substantial. We have settled a number of cases for over £12,000.
This is above our average and reflects the nature of the seriousness of such breaches, and it is also likely more than what some other law firms may be prepared to settle similar cases for. We know this because we are aware of other law firms settling claims for reduced amounts or taking earlier offers, whereas we are prepared to fight harder to make sure we get the best justice possible.
The police releasing information without authority, reason or consent can constitute a breach of the GDPR, which could allow a victim to claim data breach compensation.
No one is above law. In fact, the police have an incredibly important duty to make sure that they uphold data protection legislation. Any failure on the part of the police to comply with the GDPR could put people at risk, so it is vital that this is recognised.
