# Luxottica WHAT HAPPENED In March 2021, Luxottica - the world's biggest eyewear company - had a data breach through one of its partners.  [https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/luxottica-confirms-2021-data-breach-after-info-of-70m-leaks-online/] This breach exposed the personal information of more than 70 million people. The stolen data was later sold on a hacking forum in late 2022. It included email addresses, home addresses, names, genders, dates of birth, and phone numbers. HOW TO STAY SAFE 1. Change the password on your email account Since this leak exposed email addresses, updating your email password will reduce the risk of someone trying to access your inbox. This is especially important if you use the same password on other websites.  Follow one of our step-by-step guides depending on which email provider you use: How to Change Your Gmail Password [https://help.futureproof.app/article/1032-how-to-change-your-gmail-password] How to Change Your Yahoo Password [https://help.futureproof.app/article/1033-how-to-change-your-yahoo-password] How to Change Your AOL Password [https://help.futureproof.app/article/1034-how-to-change-your-aol-password] How to Change Your iCloud Password [https://help.futureproof.app/article/1035-how-to-change-your-icloud-password] How to Change Your Hotmail or Outlook Password [https://help.futureproof.app/article/1036-how-to-change-your-hotmail-or-outlook-password] How to Change Your Email Password (for other Email Accounts) [https://help.futureproof.app/article/1037-how-to-%D1%81hange-your-email-password-for-other-email-accounts] Then, turn on Two-Step Verification while you're there, so your account is harder to access even if your password is compromised again in the future.

Watch out for scam calls, texts, or emails This leak also included dates of birth, phone numbers, and home addresses, so scammers may try to use these details to sound convincing when pretending to be a trusted company or contact. WHY THIS BREACH MATTERS Even though this breach happened back in 2021, leaked data doesn't just expire. It keeps getting bought, sold, and reused by scammers.  And even if you've never used this exact site before, your email may have still ended up in it through a partner, data broker, or another service behind the scenes.  If you've ever reused this password anywhere else, it's worth taking a minute to secure it now.
