installed ubuntu 14.04 kylin over Linux Mint - deleted my How to recover the data partitionthat has possibly overwriten by the installation of another system?

I had linuxLinux mint installed in my computer in one partition and had another partition for Data.

I just installed ubuntu kylinUbuntu Kylin 14.04 and during the installation there was an option like "install ubuntuUbuntu replacing linux mint"Linux Mint", which was the one I chose, thinking it would just mess with the partition of linuxLinux mint.

Now I boot in ubuntuUbuntu, and I have a huge partition with Linux (bootable), including the space that was before of the data partition...

Do I still have a chance to recover some stuff that was in my previous Data partition  ?

If so how can I do that  ?
