law suits

Hello:

If someone has given out your home address and your next of kin’s address without your consent, you may have legal remedies under Philippine laws presuming this matter is within our jurisdiction.

a.) You may consider filing a complaint for violation of the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act 10173). The unauthorized disclosure of personal information such as your residential address and that of your family members can be considered as unauthorized processing and disclosure of personal and sensitive personal information. This can lead to both civil and criminal liability, with penalties including imprisonment and fines.

b.) If the disclosure was done maliciously, in order to put you or your family in harm, you may also explore filing a complaint for unjust vexation or grave threats depending on the circumstances under the Revised Penal Code.

c.) If the disclosure was made publicly and has already caused damage to your reputation or safety, you may also pursue damages under Article 19, 20, and 21 of the Civil Code of the Philippines for violation of your rights and for damages suffered.

d.) If you can prove that the disclosure exposed you or your family to risk or harassment, you may also request a protection order or file for injunction to prevent further unlawful disclosures.

Given the sensitivity of your situation, it is important to gather evidence such as screenshots, messages, or witness statements showing who disclosed your address and in what context. These will support your legal action.
