The data breach allowed hackers to access customer details from fashion brand DLSB.
Around 9 July a “white hat hacker” or “ethical hacker” breached one of company’s web servers.
Clients were advised to file reports with the Information Commissioner’s Office, and Fashion Nexus also filed a breach report.
1.4 million users had their details hacked.
Around 650,000 of its clients’ customers were believed to be affected.
The majority had their names and email addresses accessed, and one-fifth also had their home address details accessed.
No payment card information was stored in the databases.
