A massive breach has impacted up to 21 million users’ personal data and their social media “access tokens.”

The personal data of millions of Timehop customers has been compromised after a hacker gained access to its cloud-based backend computing environment.

Timehop, a service that plugs into users’ social media platforms and shows them memories from the past, disclosed the data breach on Sunday.  The company said that last week on July 4, a data breach resulted in hackers swiping the names, email addresses and phone numbers of millions of customers. The hackers also stole social media “access tokens,” provided to Timehop by social media services, for up to 21 million customers.
