If you received a data breach notification from 6Sterling Global Financial Limited, it means your private data was compromised.
When companies collect and store personal information, they take on a legal duty to protect that data from unauthorized access. A data breach indicates that this duty may not have been fully met, potentially leaving your information vulnerable to misuse by unauthorized parties.

Monitor your accounts and credit reports for any sign of suspicious activity, such as unauthorized charges or new accounts opened in your name.
Federal law grants you the right to obtain a free credit report from each of the three major credit bureaus annually. Regularly reviewing these reports can help you spot fraudulent activity. Additionally, Indiana's data breach notification laws require companies to inform you if your information has been compromised, giving you an opportunity to act.
Victims of data breaches may have legal avenues to pursue if a company's negligence led to their personal information being exposed and subsequently misused. Understanding whether a company upheld its legal duties in protecting your data is the first step. This is attorney advertising and does not create an attorney-client relationship.
