Researchers can use information from PrivacyRights.org to see how data breaches happen, what kind of data gets leaked, and who is affected. The site lists details like the company involved, how many people were impacted, and what kind of personal information was exposed. By looking at these patterns, researchers can figure out common issues or trends, like whether hacking or lost devices cause more problems. This helps them understand what to fix and how to prevent breaches in the future. It’s also helpful for showing people and companies what they should do to protect themselves better.
