may have been compromised after the online broker emailed policy information and renewal documentation to the wrong people, The Irish Times has learned.
With a customer base above 230,000, that could mean well over 2,000 people were sent policy details of others.One customer who was alerted to the data breach by Quote Devil said she was “raging” and unsure exactly how much information about her had been sent to a third party.
The statement stressed that it was “fortunately a one-off incident that only affected a very small proportion of the customers that Quote Devil supports for their insurance needs. And though all customer data is important, we would like to emphasise that no special category data was shared”.
