Well Pharmacy data breach claims

We can help you make a claim for compensation if you were a victim of the 2018 Well Pharmacy data breach incident.

Some 24,000 people were affected by the breach when an email had been sent out inadvertently contained an attachment. The attachment contained personal and potentially sensitive data about the thousands of victims affected.

Email data leaks are one of the more common types of data breach compensation claims we deal with. These kinds of incidents are entirely preventable and should never happen in the first place.

Information exposed in the Well Pharmacy data breach

Information that was exposed in the Well Pharmacy data breach was said to have included:

• Names;
• Postal addresses;
• Email addresses;
• Telephone numbers;
• Religious beliefs of employees;
• Payroll information;
• Fitness to practice data and criminal record checks information.

There was also a worry that the spreadsheet contained data that amounted to a “blacklist”, which the company denies. Some of those affected by the breach have come forward and reported the “blacklist” section.

Whether that’s true or not, the wealth of data that has been exposed in the spreadsheet is personal and sensitive. It could lead to distress for victims, which is why we’re taking legal action now for anyone who has been affected by the Well Pharmacy data breach.
