Why claim data breach compensation?

Why claim data breach compensation if you have been the victim of a leak, breach or hack?

We say that it is better to ask: why not?

At the end of the day, the GDPR can entitle you to receive damages for any distress that you have suffered from that has been caused by the loss of control of your personal information. The law recognises that this kind of event can cause you to feel worried, upset, angry, and anxious over what has happened, and what might happen in the future. Depending on the nature of the data that has been misused and/or exposed, the distress that you may suffer from could be significant.

Why cope with all that worry and stress with no justice at all? After all, it is not your fault that you have lost control over your personal information. When the fault is someone else’s, you are perfectly entitled to seek some form of justice for what has happened.

Aside from the fact that the law can entitle you to claim, as we have outlined above, the Virgin Media data leak arose from an act of negligence. This negligence was the fact that a database was left unsecured and accessible for a period of 10 months between April 2019 and February 2020. This was an avoidable event that also led to at least one unknown third party accessing the information contained in the database.

So, the law is on your side and Virgin Media is at fault for the leak. You have every right to seek justice by way of a claim for data breach compensation now.
