Pleasant Grove • Utah-based essential oil company doTERRA is warning customers and distributors that their personal information may have been compromised in a data breach in March.
In a letter released last Monday, the company says intruders may have accessed information like names, social security numbers, payment information, birthdates and more through a third-party vendor that provides doTERRA with data hosting and software services.
doTERRA says in a statement that it is working with law enforcement and security experts to address the issue.
The letter suggests reviewing account statements, ordering a credit report and changing passwords. The company is offering letter recipients an identity protection and credit monitoring service for 24 months at no cost.
