What Happened? On December 15, 2023, Loge detected irregular activity within our email environment.

What Information Was Involved? Following this determination, Loge began a thorough review of the relevant data to identify individuals with personal information in emails, attachments, or items. The review process recently concluded, and Loge determined the following information of certain individuals was potentially accessed and/or acquired by an unknown, unauthorized actor: name, Social Security number, financial account information, payment card information, driver's license, Passport number, medical information, health information, electronic signature, and/or date of birth. The information varies by individual and again, Loge is currently unaware of any actual or attempted misuse of anyone's information in connection with this incident.

What We Are Doing. Loge takes this incident and information security very seriously. Upon discovery of this incident, we moved quickly to investigate the incident and assess the security of our email environment. As part of our ongoing commitment to information security, we are reviewing our policies and procedures and implementing additional security measures to further protect against similar incidents going forward. We reported the incident to law enforcement and notified state regulators, as required.

Steps You Can Take To Help Protect Personal Information

Under U.S. law, a consumer is entitled to one free credit report annually from each of the three major credit reporting bureaus, Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. To order a free credit report, visit www.annualcreditreport.com or call, toll-free, 1-877-322-8228. Individuals may also directly contact the three major credit reporting bureaus listed below to request a free copy of their credit report.

Consumers have the right to place an initial or extended "fraud alert" on a credit file at no cost. An initial fraud alert is a one-year alert that is placed on a consumer's credit file. Upon seeing a fraud alert display on a consumer's credit file, a business is required to take steps to verify the consumer's identity before extending new credit. If an individual is the victim of identity theft, they are entitled to an extended fraud alert, which is a fraud alert lasting seven years. Should they wish to place a fraud alert, they may contact any one of the three major credit reporting bureaus listed below.

As an alternative to a fraud alert, consumers have the right to place a "credit freeze" on a credit report, which will prohibit a credit bureau from releasing information in the credit report without the consumer's express authorization. The credit freeze is designed to prevent credit, loans, and services from being approved in an individual's name without their consent. However, individuals should be aware that using a credit freeze to take control over who gets access to the personal and financial information in their credit report may delay, interfere with, or prohibit the timely approval of any subsequent request or application they make regarding a new loan, credit, mortgage, or any other account involving the extension of credit. Pursuant to federal law, an individual cannot be charged to place or lift a credit freeze on their credit report. To request a security freeze, individuals will need to provide the following information:

  1. full name (including middle initial as well as Jr., Sr., II, III, etc.);
  2. Social Security number;
  3. date of birth;
  4. addresses for the prior two to five years;
  5. proof of current address, such as a current utility bill or telephone bill;
  6. a legible photocopy of a government-issued identification card (state driver's license or ID card, military identification, etc.); and
  7. a copy of either the police report, investigative report, or complaint to a law enforcement agency concerning identity theft if they are a victim of identity theft.

Should individuals wish to place a fraud alert or credit freeze, they may contact the three major credit reporting bureaus listed below:
