This type of data breach can be particularly serious.

If your address, contact details, location information, children’s details or other personal information was disclosed to an ex-partner, hostile person or someone who poses a risk to you, the distress and potential harm may be significant.

These cases need to be handled carefully and sensitively. Evidence may include correspondence from the organisation, details of the relationship, previous warnings, safeguarding concerns, police involvement or any steps you had taken to protect your privacy.

Havard Law Solicitors can advise on the claim and any urgent practical steps that may be needed.
