Identity theft is a multi-billion-dollar problem. Although many companies have responded to this threat appropriately, some continue to risk theft of the sensitive personal and medical information entrusted to them by consumers and patients. Unfortunately, it appears Cerebral, Inc. failed to protect the sensitive information of a massive number of people.
What happened?
On January 3, 2023, Cerebral determined that it had disclosed certain information that may be regulated as protected health information (“PHI”) under HIPAA to certain Third-Party Platforms and Subcontractors without having obtained HIPAA-required assurances. Cerebral reported on the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services breach portal that 3,179,835 people had their information exposed as part of this breach.
The information disclosed to the tech giants and subtractors varies for each individual, depending on what was entered on the Cerebral platform. For example, some users only created an account on Cerebral, others completed the online mental self-assessment, and a portion bought a subscription plan.
In general, the company lists the following information as potentially exposed:
- Full name
- Phone number
- Email address
- Date of birth
- IP address
- Cerebral client ID number
- Demographic information
- Self-assessment responses and associated health information
- Subscription plan type
- Appointment dates
- Treatment details and other clinical information
- Health insurance/ pharmacy benefit information
This information may have been leaked to third parties from October 12, 2019, through January 3, 2023, when the company realized that data was being exposed via tracking pixels.
