Reported by CALIFORNIA AG filing
Auto Pride Car Wash (Redwood City, CA) notified the California AG of a data security incident involving its third-party point-of-sale system. Between February 11 and 27, 2017, malware was placed on the POS system, compromising customer payment card data (names, card numbers, security codes). The company worked with its provider to remove the malware and offered one year of credit monitoring via Kroll.
About this clustering
DisclosureLens links filings into incidents through layered matchers: deterministic rules (same source document, multistate filings of one breach, tight-window same-victim pairs), a weighted-similarity scorer for cross-source candidates, and an operator review queue for everything uncertain. Each link records its own method and confidence — shown per filing in the timeline below. The system defaults to NOT merging when uncertain, because a false merge (collapsing two unrelated breaches) is more harmful than a false split (showing related filings separately); uncertain pairs route to human review instead of auto-merging. Filing summaries shown in the timeline are AI-generated extracts — verify each against its linked source.
