Check that the company name and dates in your letter match that filing.

- An attorney can read your notice and tell you whether a claim makes sense. A case review here is free, and data breach cases are usually handled on contingency, so there is no upfront cost.
- Can I sue Upgrade Inc over the data breach?
- It depends on what was exposed, the law in Indiana and your own state, and whether you've been harmed. Most people take part through a class action rather than suing alone. Keep your notification letter — it's the proof that connects you to the breach.
- How much could a Upgrade Inc data breach settlement or claim be worth?
