What Happened?
According to a public data event page and a state Attorney General listing dated June 12, 2026, a hacking/IT incident was reported by the company. The structured notice data reviewed for this article indicates an incident date of November 28, 2025. The materials currently available do not clearly state when the issue was discovered, how long any unauthorized access may have lasted, or how many people may have been affected.
Because public postings can be brief, some important details may still be missing at this stage. That means affected individuals should focus on practical risk-reduction steps even if they have not yet seen a full explanation of the event.
What Information Was Exposed?
According to the available notice data, the information that may have been involved included:
- Name
- Social Security number
- Date of birth
- Driver’s license number
- Passport number
- Health insurance information
- Medical information
Not every person linked to a reported incident necessarily had every category of information involved. But if Social Security numbers, government ID numbers, and health-related information were part of the event, the risks can include identity theft, tax fraud, account misuse, medical identity issues, and phishing attempts that use personal details to appear credible.
What Should You Do Next?
- Review any notice you received carefully. Look for the date of the letter, the categories of information listed for you, and whether any free identity or credit monitoring services were offered.
- Monitor your financial accounts and credit. Watch bank accounts, credit card statements, and insurance activity for unfamiliar transactions or claims. Consider obtaining your credit reports and reviewing them for accounts you do not recognize.
- Consider a fraud alert or credit freeze. If highly sensitive identifiers may have been involved, placing a fraud alert or security freeze with the major credit bureaus can reduce the risk of new-account fraud.
- Stay alert for scams. Be cautious with calls, emails, or text messages that reference this incident or ask you to verify personal information. Attackers often use breach-related news to make phishing messages look legitimate.
- Document problems and ask questions. Keep copies of letters, screenshots, account statements, and notes about time spent dealing with the issue. If you want to understand your legal options, you can fill out the form on this page to contact Strauss Borrelli PLLC.

You may also have rights related to receiving timely notice and clear information about what happened. Exact rights vary by state and by the evidence that becomes available, so this page is not individualized legal advice. If you have questions about whether the reported event could support a claim, speaking with a data breach attorney can help you understand the next step.
