Good Smile Company Partially Reopens Online Store After Data Breach
Good Smile Company has partially reopened its online store on November 6 following a significant data breach discovered on October 23. The website is currently accessible for browsing product information only, while critical functions such as account registration, new orders, cart additions, and Watchlist features remain disabled until security investigations conclude.
The retailer restored the site from a backup prior to unauthorized access and patched administrative vulnerabilities. An independent security team confirmed that browsing poses no virus risk. However, the company estimates that up to 2,800 customers who used the credit card payment page between October 21 and 23 may have had full card details exposed. Additionally, approximately 402,466 registered cards may have partial information compromised, and order data for 7,673 transactions on October 22 could be affected. Good Smile has notified the Personal Information Protection Commission and contacted affected users.
