Our firm is actively investigating this breach, which may have compromised sensitive personal details including your Full Name, Email Address, Password or Credential Hash, Mailing Address, Purchase and Order History, Phone Number, Loyalty Account Details, and potentially Payment Card Information.

The exposure of these data types can lead to significant risks for victims. Compromised Payment Card Information can result in unauthorized transactions.
