Private companies and public bodies acquire an unprecedented amount of personal and sensitive information/data on a daily basis. It is of paramount importance that these companies/bodies use and store your information/data correctly and legally.
Unfortunately, given the development of technology, we are finding that information/data is being regularly used and stored incorrectly and often also disclosed when it shouldn’t and even sometimes to incorrect third party. Further, we have even come across IT systems being ‘hacked’ meaning that the security of your personal and sensitive information/data is wholly inadequate and susceptible of being leaked into the public domain.
You have the right under GDPR, the Data Protection Act and the Human Rights Act to have your personal and sensitive information/data kept accurate and private because if it is not correct or alternatively is allowed to get into the public domain, then serious damage can be caused to you both emotionally and financially.
Here at Irvings, we have been serving clients for over thirty years and in that time we have helped thousands and thousands receive the highest possible amount of compensation in their often sensitive, severe and complex claims. You, like all of these other previous clients, can easily trust us to effectively deal with your case and bring it against the defaulting party to the highest expected standard.
You can seek any or all of the following:
All you need to know is that if you think that your personal and sensitive information/data has been breached, you can commence an action against the defaulting party for their wrongdoing.
Here at Irvings, we do not represent clients using Legal Aid. Instead, we act on a ‘no win, no fee’ agreement which is further evidence of our already strong incentive to help you obtain the remedy you desire because if you don’t win, we don’t get paid. In addition, we have an agreement with an Insurance provider who (subject to assessment of prospects) is willing to fund your case through the Court process should that be necessary at no cost to you.
You have absolutely nothing to lose (and everything to gain) by contacting us.
We can help in situations such as:
Sometime last year, my client’s sensitive data about his personal background, history & ongoing health issues was disclosed without redaction to numerous recipients in the local area where he lived. This was highly embarrassing for my client who later developed a psychological disorder encompassing seclusion from the local community.
The opponent was presented with a claim within one year of the breach and was invited to mutually agree to extend a statutory deadline in regards to a Breach of Privacy Human Rights claim. This invitation was sought from the opponent so that protective Court proceedings could be avoided from being issued and in turn, would save costs accruing in a such straightforward case. They refused to agree to the invitation so my client was left with no option but to serve Court proceedings in the High Court. These proceedings sought a Declaration confirming the opponent’s data breach and an injunction preventing the same from happening again to any other person.
Thankfully, when the opponent’s legal team realised the severity of their client’s actions, liability was admitted and the Declaration and Injunction was agreed as was a substantial award of compensation for my client.
