Calgary Parking Authority

Calgary’s parking authority suffered from a data breach incident which exposed drivers’ personal data and tickets.

Contact information, like driver’s full names, dates of birth, phone numbers, email addresses and postal addresses, as well as details of parking tickets and parking offenses, which included license plates and vehicle descriptions and in some cases the location data of where the alleged parking offense took place.

The logs also contained some partial card payment numbers and expiry dates.
