About This Breach
The nine classes are dates of birth, emails, parents’ names, gender, IP addresses, names, Hashed passwords, physical addresses, and usernames. “Family members’ names” means parents’ names in this record. The measures do not mean unique children, parents, people, active players, or profiles containing every field together.
Payment and government-ID data are not reported classes. A record does not establish identity, child or parent status, an Animal Jam account, a family relationship, age, address, IP or location, game activity, password ownership or currentness, field co-occurrence, account takeover, or misuse.
PBKDF2 is not plaintext; if the old password genuinely belonged to the person and was reused elsewhere, it should be replaced. Reward, gift, account-recovery, or parental-consent messages should be verified through an independent official channel, and child or family relationships must remain private.
Verification and editorial method
