On April 12, 2018, a major rideshare company agreed to an expanded settlement with the FTC
over claims that the company failed to disclose a data breach that
occurred in 2016. At the time of the 2016 data breach, the FTC was
investigating the company for an earlier 2014 breach. The new
settlement requires the company to disclose future breaches to the
FTC and provide copies of third-party audits of its privacy program
to the FTC.
