Have You Been Affected by a Data Breach? You Are Entitled to Compensation!
In recent years, many companies have experienced data leaks in which sensitive data from millions of customers was sold on the dark web. Some examples include Facebook, myfitnesspal, Twitter, Deezer and Adobe. According to Article 34 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), companies that process the personal data of EU citizens must inform their customers immediately if a data leak has occurred.
If a data breach occurs and customers' personal data is affected, they can claim compensation. According to Article 82 of the GDPR, data subjects are entitled to compensation if they have suffered material or immaterial damage as a result of a data breach. Together with Claimback, you can claim damages of up to €5,000 - without any risk.
Claimback offers affected customers the opportunity to have their situation checked free of charge and without obligation to see if they have been affected by a data breach. If that is the case, Claimback helps enforce compensation without any financial risk. Do you have legal expenses insurance (RSV)? Then we can act on your behalf!
