Has your data been compromised? You’re not alone. And you’re not powerless.
Data breaches are becoming more common, but most people aren’t sure what to do when their information is leaked. That’s why we’ve put together a practical, plain-English guide to help you take control.
So, your data has been breached… is a free resource designed to walk you through the steps you should take – from tightening your online security to checking if you’re eligible for compensation.
Why this guide matters
When your personal information ends up in the wrong hands, the consequences can be serious. From fraudulent transactions to identity theft and constant scam calls, the impact can be both financial and emotional.
But the worst thing you can do? Ignore it.
Taking action quickly can protect you, limit the damage, and even help you hold the responsible organisation accountable. This guide explains exactly how.
What’s inside?
Here’s what we cover:
- What to do straight after a breach (passwords, accounts, credit monitoring)
- How to avoid common post-breach scams
- Where to get help if you feel overwhelmed or unsure
- How to gather evidence for a possible legal claim
- Step-by-step instructions for making a data breach compensation claim
We’ve also included top tips to protect your data in future and help you feel more in control.
You could be owed compensation
If a company failed to protect your data, you may have the right to claim compensation, even if the breach happened a while ago. Our guide explains how group actions work, how to check your eligibility, and how to sign up with a trusted UK law firm on a no-win, no-fee basis.
Whether you’ve just received a breach notification, or you’re still feeling the fallout from one months ago, our guide is here to help. Clear, actionable and written for real people – not lawyers.
Don’t panic. Don’t ignore it. Take control.
