A: If a matchmaking site disclosed your personal email address without your consent, you may have grounds for a legal complaint, especially if it violated their privacy policy or terms of service. The viability of your claim will depend on the specific facts and circumstances surrounding the disclosure. You should review the terms and conditions you agreed to when signing up for the site. It's essential to consult with legal counsel promptly to determine the best course of action and ensure you act within any applicable limitation period. Remember, timely action is critical to preserving your rights.
