OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Oklahoma will get only a tiny part of a $9.75 million settlement with the parent company of clothing retailer TJ Maxx that is related to the company's data security practices.
Oklahoma Attorney General Drew Edmondson made the announcement yesterday.
In 2007, TJX Companies announced a security breach of its computer system that allowed unauthorized access to customers' personal financial account information.
At the time, TJ Maxx had only a few stores in Oklahoma. Edmondson said the state will get $26,000 from the settlement, which will be used for consumer protection efforts.
