This data breach was one of the first major ones to hit the headlines in the wake of the GDPR coming into force just weeks before. When news of the breach was announced, we were immediately contacted by concerned victims and we agreed to take legal cases forward.

Plenty has happened since we launched our legal action two years ago. If you have yet to join our action, you should do so as soon as you can.

The app has been used for GP video appointments and reportedly has more than 2.3 million registered users in the UK. We understand that it may be popular right now as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, and now – more than ever – we need to make use of technology to keep us all safe.

Some statistics have put the number of downloads for mental health apps at one million since the start of the coronavirus pandemic, and these apps have been around for quite some time.
The additional strain that the pandemic is causing on our mental wellbeing is widely recognised, and the increased usage of such apps doesn’t come as a surprise. But people do need to be careful, and some apps will be more secure than others. It’s a perfect opportunity for scammers to try to muscle their way in to get hold of sensitive information too.
