Your Rights and Next Steps
If you believe your information was involved in this data breach, there are important steps you can take to protect yourself and exercise your rights. Lawyers are ready to help individuals who may have been affected by this incident.
First, review your financial and medical accounts for any suspicious activity or unauthorized transactions. You are entitled to one free credit report annually from each of the three major credit bureaus—Equifax, Experian and TransUnion.
You also have the right to place a fraud alert or credit freeze on your credit file at no cost. A fraud alert requires businesses to verify your identity before extending credit, while a credit freeze restricts access to your credit report entirely. These tools can help prevent identity theft or unauthorized credit activity.
If you notice any signs of identity theft, you have the right to file a police report and report the incident to your state Attorney General and the Federal Trade Commission. The company is offering one year of free credit monitoring and identity restoration services through IDX, which can provide additional protection.
