United Language Group Data Breach Exposes Sensitive Personal and Medical Information
United Language Group (ULG), a Minneapolis-based language services provider acquired by Propio Language Services in September 2024, disclosed a data breach that compromised sensitive personal and medical information. The incident was reported to the Texas Attorney General on August 21, 2026, with 333 Texas residents confirmed as affected.
The breach exposed a range of personally identifiable information (PII), including names, addresses, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, driver’s license numbers, government-issued IDs (such as passports), and financial details like account and credit/debit card numbers. Additionally, protected health information (PHI), such as medical records and health insurance data, was also compromised.
In response, ULG notified impacted individuals via U.S. Mail, though the company has not publicly detailed the cause or timeline of the breach. The exposure of such sensitive data raises concerns about potential identity theft and fraud risks for those affected.
