Company assures customers that payment information was not compromised.
The personal information of about one million Park'N Fly customers was accessed during a July data breach last month.
According to CTV News, the company said a third party accessed its network through unauthorized remote VPN access between July 11th and July 13th. The attacker may have compromised basic customer information such as names, email and mailing addresses as well as Aeroplan and CAA numbers.
However Park'N Fly said it "can confirm with certainty" that payment information was not compromised as it does not store customer credit cards or passwords on its servers.
"While we deeply regret any concern this incident may have caused, we want to reassure our valued customers and partners that we are taking all necessary steps to safeguard their information," said Carlo Marrello, Park'N Fly Canada's CEO.
