The breaches compromised the personal information of millions of consumers nationwide. The coalition has also obtained a separate settlement with T-Mobile in connection with the 2015 Experian breach, which impacted more than 15 million individuals who submitted credit applications with T-Mobile. Under the signed settlements, the companies have agreed to improve their data security practices and to pay the states a combined amount of more than $16 million. Arkansas will receive a total of $139,146.62 from the settlements.
