Credit Card Numbers, Expiration Dates and Security Codes of Thousands of Consumers Compromised.

The order against Life is good, Inc. and Life is good Retail, Inc. bars deceptive claims about privacy and security policies and requires that the companies implement a comprehensive information-security program and obtain audits by an independent third-party security professional every other year for 20 years.
