If your personal data has been exposed in an app data breach, we can help you to claim compensation.
Apps are an everyday part of modern life which we often give little thought to.
But in many cases, we are required to share highly sensitive personal information with the apps we use, including our name, address, date of birth and payment details.
If that information is exposed in a data beach, it can have very serious consequences.
You could find yourself at risk of fraud, as well as having to deal with significant worry and emotional distress.

UK financial services firms reported a whopping 480% more data breaches in 2018 than in 2017.
And, in the sector, retail banking saw the number of data breach reports jump by a staggering 2400%.
Of course, bank fraud is a very serious crime and victims can suffer both financial loss and distress.
But, while we often worry about hackers and cybercriminals getting hold of our banking and credit card details, in many cases, simple human error can also have devastating consequences.
So, to protect us from financial data breaches and cybercrime, it is vital that there are adequate and robust protections in place to secure the data and information held within it.

The public sector is privy to a wide range of our sensitive information, and this data is regularly shared between organisations and departments as part of modern governance and the delivery of public services.
But, with data breaches on the rise, government bodies must do more to improve cybersecurity.
Our local governments were hit by almost 100 million cyber attacks over five years, with one in four council systems successfully breached.
This is particularly important as the UK government acknowledges cybercrime as the number one threat to national security.
