Galine Frye Reports Data Breach Exposing Sensitive Personal and Health Information
Galine Frye recently disclosed a data breach to the California Attorney General, revealing that unauthorized access to its network may have compromised sensitive personal and protected health information. The incident was detected on or around October 17, 2025, prompting an internal investigation.
The investigation confirmed that an unauthorized third party accessed and potentially exfiltrated data from Galine Frye’s systems. By December 10, 2025, the company completed its review, determining that exposed information varied by individual but included:
- Full names
- Social Security numbers
- Government-issued IDs (e.g., driver’s licenses)
- Financial details (bank accounts, credit/debit card numbers)
- Medical records
- Health insurance policy information
On December 15, 2025, Galine Frye began notifying affected individuals via mail and posted a public notice on its website. The breach notification letters, filed with the California Attorney General, include details on the compromised data and offer complimentary credit monitoring services to impacted parties.
