Where a breach is “non-trivial”, a claimant will only be able to claim damages where they can prove that they have suffered “damage” (as defined under the appropriate legislation). Under the GDPR and DPA 2018, persons whose rights under the GDPR are infringed are entitled to compensation where they have suffered “material or non-material damage”, the latter of which “includes distress”. Limits recoverability of After-The-Event (“ ATE)” insurance premiums which had been common for claimants in low-value data claims typically for breach of confidence and misuse of private information claims to cover their costs and to pressure defendants into settling (and in paying more money to settle) by having to factor in ATE premiums when considering their costs liability. Since it is no longer clear that ATE premiums will be recoverable in such cases, claimants will need to give greater thought to purchasing this (particularly where cases involve data breaches) which may reduce the number of claims in which this tactic is deployed by claimants. Whether the Court of Appeal erred in failing to hold that the claimants were entitled to a remedy in the tort of private nuisance by reason of the Tate Modern’s use of the top floor of its Blavatnik Building as a viewing platform. Facts The issue of whether Meghan was “the sole author”, or whether Jason Knauf, formerly communications secretary to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, was a “co-author”, should be determined at a trial, despite being something “of minor significance in the overall context”, the judge said. This July, British Airways (“ BA”) settled its long-running class action dispute with a number of the 420,000 people affected by a 2018 data breach.

Following a drunken altercation with a police officer the claimant was dismissed from his role at the National Crime Agency (“NCA”). The claimant then pursued a case for breach of the Data Protection Act (“DPA”). The analysis of the issues in the judgment provides significant insight into the application of the DPA. There was a Panopticon blog post about the case. HRH The Duchess of Sussex v Associated Newspapers Limited [2021] EWHC 273 (Ch) and [2021] EWCA Civ 1810. The Tate Modern opened an extension in 2016 called the Blavatnik Building. The Blavatnik building is ten stories high and, on its top floor, has a viewing platform which offers panoramic views of London. The Appellants own flats neighbouring the Tate Modern which are of a similar elevation to the Blavatnik building and whose walls are mainly made of glass. On the southside of the viewing platform, visitors to the Tate can see directly into the flats of the Appellants.I confirm I am a lawyer or work in a legal capacity, intend to use LexisNexis products for business purposes and agree with the terms and conditions. ** The Court found that, in providing the option, “Don’t save my Location History in my Google Account”, represented to some reasonable consumers that they could prevent their location data being saved on their Google Account.

INFORRM had a case comment. Coverage from legal outlets was broad including Matrix Chambers, DLA Piper, Linklaters and Farrer & Co. Also expected to impact the allocation of claims involving “trivial” breaches of data protection legislation, as the court made clear that the High Court was not the appropriate forum for these (see also Warren v DSG Retail Ltd above). This case concerned whether representatives appointed under Article 27 of the GDPR (“ Representatives”) can be held liable for the breach of the respective data controller.
Kaye v Robertson - Wikipedia Kaye v Robertson - Wikipedia
A friend of Kaye had been granted an interlocutory injunction preventing the editor (Anthony Robertson) and the Sunday Sport from using the material; they appealed. It should be noted that claimant has been granted permission to appeal and so this verdict may change in the future. It was held that claims in breach of confidence and/or misuse of private information cannot succeed without “use” or “misuse” of information by a defendant (which do not include omissions such as failures to secure data), whilst the claim in negligence failed because it was held that where statutory duties are in place, there is no need to impose a duty of care.

The court held for the defendant that no such liability existed, as (a) the GDPR would have referred to ‘representative liability’“ more clearly in its operative provisions” had it intended to impose this, (b) Representatives do not have power over controllers or processors “ on a day to day basis over how and why data are processed”, and (c) the European Data Protection Board (“ EDPB”) guidelines state Representatives are “ not responsible for complying with data subject rights”. As such, the remedies sought could only be obtained directly from WorldCo. However, Le Soir created a free, electronic, searchable version of its archives from 1989 onwards, including the article at issue.

He explained that its availability was damaging to his reputation, particularly in his work as a doctor.

Bloomberg had argued that the general public understands that reporting the existence of a criminal investigation into an individual does not mean they are necessarily guilty of a criminal offence. However, the supreme court ruled that even revealing the existence of a criminal inquiry would affect aspects of an individual’s private life such as “the right to establish and develop relationships with other people”. Essentially, whilst it might have been proportionate to disclose and publish a very small part of the Letter to rebut inaccuracies in the People Article, it was not necessary to deploy half the contents of the Letter as Associated Newspapers did. As the Articles themselves demonstrate, and as the judge found, the primary purpose of the Articles was not to publish Mr Markle’s responses to the inaccurate allegations against him in the People Article. The true purpose of the publication was, as the first 4 lines of the Articles said: to reveal for the first time [to the world] the “[t]he full content of a sensational letter written by [the Duchess] to her estranged father shortly after her wedding”. The contents of the Letter were private when it was written and when it was published, even if the claimant, it now appears, realised that her father might leak its contents to the media.” [106] A primary concern with artificial intelligence is its potential to replicate, reinforce or amplify harmful biases. Such biases can proliferate depending on the nature of the data collection performed, a process that may also result in issues such as the spillover effects introduced in an earlier paragraph. Facebook and its lawyers from Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher did not immediately respond to a request for more details regarding the settlement. In the judgment written by Lord Hamblen and Lord Stephens, they said: “For some time, judges have voiced concerns as to the negative effect on an innocent person’s reputation of the publication that he or she is being investigated by the police or an organ of the state.”

Judgment appealed The businessman in Wednesday’s ruling successfully argued that, under the European convention on human rights, he had a reasonable expectation that the details of the British regulator’s criminal investigation into him would not be made public unless he was charged with an offence. In 2017, the Economist found that half of the world’s countries scored lower for democracy than the previous year, mainly because of the erosion of confidence in government and public institutions. In alignment with this, according to the Director Journal, in 2017, the 28th Governor General of Canada articulated the growing and “disturbing” global pattern of mistrust in institutions, finding for the first time in the same year that less than half of Canadians trust their government, business, media, non-governmental organizations, and their leaders.Attempts to ‘augment’ what should be a clear claim for breach of data protection law with various other heads of claim are less likely to be successful.
