Think your data’s safe? Think again. From leaked emails to massive cyber-attacks, companies keep dropping the ball. And it’s your personal info that pays the price.
We break down how your privacy gets compromised, what it really means for you, and how to fight back when your rights are violated. We’re also calling for stronger, clearer obligations on every organisation handling digital identity data – from government departments to private companies and online platforms.
Join the Claim is not a law firm. This information is for general guidance only and does not constitute legal advice.
Personal data is increasingly being used across work, public services and online platforms. While data protection laws like GDPR are meant to keep this information safe, repeated breaches and failures show that digital identity data is still not being taken seriously enough in practice.
People are increasingly demanding that organisations live up to their responsibilities, not just cite compliance on paper.
We’re calling on every organisation that uses digital identity data — public or private — to back a five-point pledge that puts protection, transparency and accountability first.
To stand with us and call for tougher protections, share your support using #ProtectOurDigitalID.

A data breach claim is when your personal data was exposed, and you are seeking compensation for the distress or financial loss caused by this breach.
The law firms we partner with usually operate on a no-win, no-fee basis, meaning you only pay if the claim is successful. However, fees may apply if you cancel after the cooling-off period or breach your agreement.
If you win, the firm will either take its fees from your compensation payment or recover them from the defendants.
All terms are clearly explained before joining.

Yes, emotional stress or inconvenience may be taken into account when determining your compensation if you win. Lawyers assess claims on a case-by-case basis.
Compensation varies depending on the severity and impact.
Using Join the Claim is free. While we may take a fee from the law firms we introduce you to, this won’t impact the cost of your claim or any compensation you receive.

Yes, if you qualify for multiple claims, you can join as many as you are eligible for.
Experienced legal professionals and law firms handle all aspects of the claim. Our role is to connect eligible claimants with expert representation.
Compensation can come in two ways: through a settlement, where the defendant agrees to pay without going to trial, or through damages, which are awarded by the court if the case is won. Compensation is designed to reimburse you for the harm or loss you’ve experienced – whether that’s financial, emotional, or related to your rights as a consumer or employee. Compensation amounts vary depending on the nature of the claim, how many people are involved, and how badly individuals were affected.
Your information is only shared with the legal teams handling your claim and is never sold or shared without your consent.
One of the strictest data privacy laws in the world, GDPR (the General Data Protection Regulation) is designed to protect your personal information. When the UK officially exited the EU, it retained the GDPR framework, integrating it into domestic law as the ‘UK GDPR’.
A group action claim allows people affected by the same issue to take action together. This strength in numbers helps stand up to big organisations. Join the Claim helps connect people with law firms so these actions have real impact.
We connect consumers with their legal dream teams to ensure they get the compensation and support they deserve.
Join the Claim is not a law firm. We connect individuals with top law firms for group action claims, and our service is free to use. While we may receive a fee from the law firms we introduce you to, this will not affect your costs or compensation. We are not responsible for the advice or services provided by these firms. Please note, nothing on this website is legal advice, and while we check claim eligibility, we cannot guarantee a law firm will accept a case.
