In today’s digital age, personal data is an invaluable asset entrusted to various organizations, from businesses and financial institutions to healthcare providers and public sector entities. With the increasing reliance on technology, the risks associated with data breaches have also grown.
A data breach occurs when sensitive personal information—such as names, addresses, financial details, or medical records—is exposed, accessed, or misused without authorisation. These incidents can happen due to cyberattacks, hacking, human error, or inadequate security measures.
Data breaches can have far-reaching consequences for affected individuals. Victims may experience identity theft, financial losses, emotional distress, and reputational harm. To address such situations, UK data protection laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018, establish strict guidelines for organisations to safeguard personal data. If an organisation fails to protect your data and you suffer harm as a result, you may have the right to pursue a data breach claim for compensation.
