In July 2024, data scraped from a misconfigured Life360 API was posted online after being obtained several months earlier. The records included 443k unique email addresses and in most cases, corresponding names and phone numbers (some records were null or obfuscated). Life360 promptly notified impacted users after the incident was discovered.

What was exposed

  • Email addresses: The email address you used to register or log in. It is the most common field in breaches because it doubles as your username on most sites.
  • Names: Your first name, surname and sometimes middle name or initials, as you gave them when you signed up. It appears in almost every breach because nearly every account asks for it.
  • Phone numbers: Your mobile or landline number, collected at signup for contact, delivery updates, marketing and two-factor codes.
