Information on how we handle your data is available in our Privacy Policy.
Action has been taken in the wake of the massive Marriott cyber attack that was revealed last year, both here in the U.K. and in the U.S.
In the U.K., victims may be entitled to make a claim for data breach compensation if you were one of the 500 million people affected. If you’re a resident in England or Wales, we can represent you for the case. A claim is separate to any enforcement action and fines that may be issue by the ICO (Information Commissioner’s Office). Those fines alone could end up in the hundreds of millions.
As well as claims and fines, testimonies and apologies took place last month as well. Here’s the latest.
The Mumsnet data breach is said to have affected dozens of accounts after a software change resulted in the exposure of some users’ personal information.
Users who logged into their account during the breach period may have been able to see the account information for other users, and vice-versa. Mumsnet has reported themselves to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) and has reversed the software alteration and logged all users out of their accounts.
Software changes that lead to data breach are not uncommon. Some of the data breach compensation claims we represent people for have stemmed from this type of breach. Victims of such data breaches may be able to take legal action.
If you have been the victim of a HIV status data breach, you may be entitled to make a claim for compensation with No Win, No Fee representation.
We can tell you from years of experience that HIV status data breach incidents can be absolutely devastating and can have a lifelong impact on the victim. The legal action that we’re helping a large number of the 56 Dean Street HIV status data breach victims for is still ongoing, and the evidence and witness statements from our clients says it all.
Anyone who has suffered as a victim of a HIV status data breach may be eligible to claim compensation, and we’re here to help.
You may be eligible to claim Equifax data breach compensation on a No Win, No Fee basis if you were a victim of the huge 2017 cyberattack.
We launched our legal action for justice once news of the breach hit the headlines. Since then, we’ve been taking cases on and we’re now acting for a large group of victims.
You still have time to join the Equifax data breach compensation action, but we’re urging anyone who has yet to sign-up to do so ASAP. There are deadlines to claim, and there could be court-imposed deadlines put in place as well. The action is well underway.
You still have time to join the Dixons Carphone data breach compensation action we launched, and you can claim on a No Win, No Fee basis.
The massive 2017 Dixons Carphone data breach was huge and affected millions of people. Although the breach took place in 2017, the news of the incident was only reported a year later in 2018. The reason for the shocking delay was apparently down to the discovery of the breach after internal changes and investigations by the troubled company.
The legal action for justice is well underway, but you still have time to join and start your case today.
You may be eligible to claim Marriott data breach compensation if you’ve yet to sign-up for legal representation.
This was a huge breach with around 500m people affected across the globe. Personal and contact information had been exposed since 2014 in some cases. Payment card data was also exposed in the breach, potentially leaving victims at an imminent risk of fraud.
We can help victims claiming Marriott data breach compensation on a No Win, No Fee basis. This means that you do not have to pay for our legal fees if the case doesn’t win, so long as you abide by the T’s and C’s of our agreement.
You may be able to claim in the Cathay Pacific data breach compensation action if you were a victim of the recent incident.
Almost 10m passengers from around the world have had personal and sensitive data exposed in this latest airliner breach. News of the incident broke just weeks after the huge British Airways legal action was launched, which we’re representing victims for.
Cathay Pacific has pledged to ensure all customers are informed if their data was exposed. If you’ve been informed that your data was exposed in the breach, we can help you if you’re based in England or Wales.
If you’re a victim of the monumental Marriott data breach, we may be able to help you claim compensation.
The Marriott data breach has to be the super breach of 2018. Some 500 million customers whose data was on the Starwood reservations database has been compromised. The breach period appears to have been from 2014 up until 10th September 2018. That’s a four-year exposure period!
Marriott International acquired the Starwood chain in 2016. As far as we’re aware, the affected customers were all on a separate Starwood reservations database.
The York City Council data breach revealed at the end of November appears to be another avoidable breach from a local authority.
In this incident, an IT expert inadvertently stumbled across a huge vulnerability in the York City Council’s environmental app, named One Plant York. The app, which has since been taken down, had some 6,000 users and was aimed at promoting environmental protection. Unfortunately, a vulnerability in the app’s coding led to the personal and private information of the 6,000 users being compromised.
The British airways data leak and the legal action we’ve launched has widened with the news that thousands more are affected.
It has been confirmed that a further 185,000 are understood to have also been affected customers who made a “reward booking” between April 2018 and July 2018 are said to be affected.
We’ve already launched our legal action for victims of the British Airways data leak. If you were affected by the August to September leak, or the latest breach announcement, we can help. We’re representing victims for claims on a No Win, No Fee basis.
You can start your Ticketmaster data breach claim with us today. It’s easy and hassle-free, and you’re joining a group of others already claiming.
As a firm of data breach experts (clue is in the name) who are representing victims in over 20 different data breach actions, where else do you need to look?
We initiated legal action for victims of the Ticketmaster data breach as soon as the news broke about it. We’re confident we can win the legal case we’ve started. Here’s some more advice about joining the action and what it entails!
We’re launching a Newegg data breach compensation action after news broke that the hackers behind the British Airways data breach appear to have struck again.
A vulnerability in the Newegg website allowed hackers to digitally “skim” payment information in the same fashion as the BA data breach. The company has yet to release full information about the breach, but we’re launching legal action now.
Newegg has admitted that they have identified malware that had been injected into their servers. We can only estimate at this stage that customers’ personal and payment data may have been compromised.
