Key Facts
- Typically, 70-85 percent of a country’s respondents they would close their accounts with the organization responsible for the breach of their personal information. Almost all respondents in all 12 countries (80-90 percent) said they would change their passwords following a breach.
- Roughly half of respondents in all 12 countries said they would take steps to publicly expose the issue of a data breach involving their personal data. Half or more said they would take legal action, although this proportion is much smaller in Belgium and The Netherlands.
- A small percentage of respondents in most of the 12 countries (typically 20-30 percent) said they would continue doing business with an organization responsible for a breach of their personal data, while avoiding online transactions with that organization.
