Are we going to see a Ticketmaster GDPR fine given that at least some victims of their data breach had their information exposed after the May 2018 legislation change?
There are a few thing to look at when considering which legislation will apply; i.e. the old or the new. The breach actually spans across the deadline because some information in this breach was exposed both before and after the GDPR legislation came into force.
So, which will apply? Will the test be that the information was initially exposed before the deadline, meaning the old rules apply, or are we saying that the data being exposed after the deadline means GDPR will apply?
We’re offering Typeform data breach compensation advice and legal representation for victims of this recent breach.
We’re already acting for a number of people affected by the Typeform data breach whose information was exposed due to what Typeform admitted was third-party access to a server where information was downloaded without authority.
Many organisations use Tyepform, meaning the people affected vary in terms of the data being held about them and where they’re from.
A council tax data breach can have devastating consequences for the victims involved, especially given that councils hold a lot of personal and sensitive data about us.
Incidents of a council tax data breach are not unheard of and a wealth of information – from people’s personal details to salary information – can be exposed. Council data breaches alone can be quite common given they fall within the umbrella of the public sector, where data breaches can be common.
Although it’s never nice to be the victim of a data breach, victims of a council tax data breach are entitled to claim for data breach compensation.
An NHS data breach hit 150,000 after an IT glitch failed to record the wishes of patients who had opted-out of their medical data being used for research and auditing.
We’ve already accepted a number of cases for patients who have been affected by the huge NHS data breach. We are taking forward claims for data breach compensation for anyone who has received notification that they have been affected by the breach.
With 150,000 patients affected by the issue, this is a huge breach with the potential for GDPR implications to be imposed.
The PageUp data breach affecting millions worldwide was another ‘here we go again’ moment as the mega breach, affecting a number of people throughout several countries, hit the news.
The Australian-based provider of cloud HR and recruitment software that’s used in almost 200 countries, including the UK, had its systems breached in May. We’ve already been approached for help and are taking compensation claims forward for UK victims.
Personal information, banking information and passwords are thought to have been potentially exposed in the PageUp data breach.
The accusations have deepened over alleged failures to stop the Ticketmaster data leak, as more information is revealed by the bank that warned of the leak months before the incident was reportedly discovered.
UK challenger bank, Monzo, say that they warned Ticketmaster about a number of suspicious transactions back in April – two months before the Ticketmaster data leak was allegedly discovered – with trends that indicated a data breach involving Ticketmaster.
We’re already acting for a number of victims of the Ticketmaster data leak incident who have asked us to help them fight for their rights to justice. This new revelations are concerning.
You may be eligible for a Ticketmaster data breach claim if you have been affected by the recent breach involving some 400,000 UK victims’ payment card information.

We’ve already taken on a number of cases because we’re satisfied that the prospects of success for the legal action are good. There are a number of reasons as to why Ticketmaster are liable for claims in our view, so read on for advice and feel free to contact the team to start a claim.
There has been a Ticketmaster data breach that we’re advising victims for and taking on claims for data breach compensation.
People who used the Tickmaster service between February and June 2018 may have been affected.
The Ticketmaster data breach was discovered on Saturday 23rd June and customers have today received email notifications confirming whether they have been affected by the breach. Personal information and payment information is thought to have been accessed.
Profits are set to fall in the wake of the Dixons Carphone cyber-attack. A sharp fall in profits is expected after news of the massive cyber-attack that exposed some 5.9 million credit and debit card details, and some 1.2 million personal data records.
Some reports have indicated the fall in profits may be as much as 23pc.
The Dixons Carphone cyber-attack apparently took place last year, yet it has taken them almost a year for the news to be revealed; a matter that they will no doubt face further criticism for.
