Online Fashion Reseller Shein Fined for Data Breach. Here’s Why
Online Retailers have to be accountable for data privacy, and they MUST disclose any data breaches to their customers. Shein was found in violation of several laws regarding disclosure and fined.
The owner of fast-fashion site Shein has been fined $1.9m (£1.69m) over its handling of a data breach.
Login details for 39 million Shein accounts were stolen in 2018 after its parent company, Zoetop, was targeted by hackers.
New York Attorney General Letitia James said Zoetop had lied about the extent of the breach and had notified "only a fraction" of affected customers.
Shein says it has taken "significant steps" to improve its cyber-security.
Names, email addresses, passwords and credit-card information belonging to tens of millions of Shein account holders were stolen by hackers and sold online.
