Canadian Tire has disclosed a data breach affecting its online shopping database, exposing customer information tied to Canadian Tire, SportChek, Mark’s/L’Équipeur, and Party City accounts.

The company said on October 14 the breach was detected on October 2, 2025, when it found “unauthorized activity” in an e-commerce database. According to Canadian Tire, the hack was limited to that system and did not impact Canadian Tire Bank or Triangle Rewards data.

The exposed data includes names, addresses, emails, and years of birth, along with encrypted passwords and partial credit card numbers — the kind that appear on a store receipt. The retailer says the partial credit card info and encrypted passwords cannot be used to log into accounts or make purchases.

Fun. So this isn’t just Canadian Tire, it’s the e-commerce platform for the entire Triangle network that was breached.

It specifically says Triangle Rewards wasn’t affected; that’s separate from Triangle e-commerce, which includes the web stores for the listed companies.
