About the Eurocell data breach
The Eurocell data breach was a major cyberattack that hit the Derbyshire manufacturing company, resulting in the personal details of employees being exposed.
According to information that has been provided to us having have been asked for help, the cyberattack may have compromised incredibly personal and sensitive information. As a result of what has happened, the company has issued notifications to both current and former staff to inform them about the cyberattack.
The Eurocell data breach is significant given that the nature of the information that may have been exposed is incredibly personal and sensitive. It may include birth dates, National Insurance numbers, tax reference numbers, banking information, and sensitive data about employment matters, such as grievance and disciplinary information, employee development records, and information about the health and well-being of staff. In the wrong hands, this kind of information could be used by criminals to target victims for fraud and theft, and it could also be used to demand ransoms on the threat of releasing information.
Your Lawyers instructed for legal action
Following current and former staff being informed about the Eurocell data breach, the expert team here at Your Lawyers has been asked to take legal action. As is often the case after a new data breach has come to light, we have been contacted for help and we have agreed to take action on a No Win, No Fee basis.
As a firm based in Derbyshire, not only do we understand the impact of the victims given our experience in data breach claiming, but we also understand the impact on a local level. Anyone affected by the Eurocell data breach could be entitled to claim compensation for any distress caused by the loss of control of their personal information. You do not have to have lost any money or paid out any expenses to claim as the GDPR can entitle you to recover compensation for the distress alone, which can be significant.
When we assess data breach compensation amounts and pay-outs, we will often look at the nature of the information exposed to help us to assess the extent of the distress. Given the nature of the personal and sensitive information exposed in this cyberattack, it is clear that those affected could suffer from significant distress which will be reflected in any settlement that we can obtain.
