Possible leak of SmartNews partner emails and internal user IDs

Resumen

Reported groups are 1,582 publisher-contact email records, 207 advertiser-contact email records and 1,033 internal IDs. Their overlap is unknown, so no combined total is calculated. IDs alone cannot identify a person. Passwords and cards were excluded, and no secondary harm was confirmed.
