Under terms of the order, the business agrees to pay a civil penalty of $220,000 and they are required to provide identity theft victims with access to business transaction records related to the theft within 30 days. The business will also post a notice on its website informing identity theft victims about how to obtain records related to identity theft and certify that it has reached out to victims who were unlawfully denied access to such records in the past. The Assurance was for settlement purposes only and should not be considered as an admission of guilt or finding of violation of the law.
