Azle Cube Smiles Data Breach Lawsuit Investigation
Were you affected by the Azle Cube Smiles data breach?
Dapeer Law, P.A. is investigating a potential class action involving Azle Cube Smiles PLLC, which reported a data breach to the Texas Attorney General on September 11, 2026. The filing states that 2,940 Texas residents were affected and identifies Social Security numbers, driver's license numbers, financial account and payment card information, and medical and health insurance information among the categories of data involved.
Who may qualify
You may be eligible to participate in a class action if any of the following applies:
- You had personal information held by Azle Cube Smiles PLLC as a current or former patient, or as an employee.
- You were notified by mail that your information was involved. The filing states notice was provided to consumers by U.S. Mail.
- A notice letter is helpful but not required. The Texas filing does not state when letters were mailed, so if you have not received one, or no longer have the one you got, we can still review your situation.
- No proof of harm required to consult with counsel. You do not need to have already suffered identity theft to explore your legal options.
- Excluded: individuals who did not receive a breach notice and whose information was not involved in the incident.

What happened
Azle Cube Smiles PLLC, located at 224 Park Place in Azle, Texas, reported a data breach to the Texas Attorney General. The report was published on the Attorney General's public breach listing on September 11, 2026. The filing states that 2,940 Texas residents were affected.
According to the Texas filing, the categories of information involved were: name, address, Social Security number, driver's license number, government-issued ID number, financial information including account and payment card numbers, medical information, health insurance information, and date of birth. The filing indicates that notice was provided to affected consumers by U.S. Mail.
The Texas filing does not state when the breach occurred, when it was discovered, how it happened, or whether identity protection services were offered. It also does not state a nationwide total, because Texas requires reporting only the number of Texas residents affected. The true number of people affected may be higher. Whether the company's data security practices met applicable legal standards, and whether affected individuals received adequate and timely notice, are among the issues being evaluated.
What to do if you were affected
Keep your notice letter if you received one
Do not discard it. Your notice letter is important evidence if you decide to participate in a lawsuit, and it should identify the specific categories of your information that were involved. If no letter has reached you, the steps below still apply.
Check your letter for identity protection services
The Texas filing does not state whether identity protection or credit monitoring services were offered. If a letter reaches you and it includes an enrollment code, enroll before the stated deadline. Accepting this benefit does not waive your right to pursue legal action.
Place a fraud alert or credit freeze
Contact Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion to place a fraud alert or freeze on your file. Request a free weekly credit report from AnnualCreditReport.com, and use the FTC's IdentityTheft.gov recovery guide. Because Social Security numbers are reported to be involved, consider placing a security freeze with all three credit bureaus rather than a fraud alert alone, and watch for tax returns or government benefits filed in your name. Driver's license and government ID numbers were also reported, so it is worth contacting your state motor vehicle agency if you see signs of misuse.

Common questions
What should I do if my information was involved? +
If you received a notice letter, keep it, since it should identify the specific categories of your information that were involved. If no letter has reached you, the Texas filing does not state when notices were mailed, so the steps below are still worth taking. Review your credit reports and account statements for unfamiliar activity. Because Social Security numbers are reported to be involved, a security freeze with all three credit bureaus gives more protection than a fraud alert alone, and it is worth watching for tax returns or government benefits filed in your name. Document any time or money you spend dealing with the breach. Contact a data breach attorney for a free consultation to understand your legal options.
Am I eligible to join a class action against Azle Cube Smiles? +
If your information was held by Azle Cube Smiles PLLC, you are likely eligible for a free case evaluation, whether or not a notice letter has reached you yet. Eligibility depends on your state of residence, the categories of your data that were involved, and any losses or harm you have experienced. Dapeer Law will review your situation at no cost.
What personal information was involved in the breach? +
The Texas Attorney General filing identifies the following categories: name, address, Social Security number, driver's license number, government-issued ID number, financial information including account and payment card numbers, medical information, health insurance information, and date of birth. The filing reports the categories involved across the incident as a whole. Your individual letter should identify which categories applied to you.
Did Azle Cube Smiles offer free credit monitoring? +
The Texas Attorney General filing does not indicate whether identity protection or credit monitoring services were offered. Check your notice letter, which would contain an enrollment code and deadline if services were provided. This page will be updated if that information becomes available.
How many people were affected by the Azle Cube Smiles breach? +
The Texas Attorney General filing reports 2,940 Texas residents affected. Texas requires reporting only the number of Texas residents, so the nationwide total is not disclosed in this filing and may be higher. This page will be updated as additional information becomes available.
What if I did not receive the notice letter, or no longer have it? +
The Texas filing states that notice was provided to affected consumers by U.S. Mail, but it does not state when letters were mailed. The Texas Attorney General's public breach listing publishes a summary of each report rather than the notice letter itself. You do not need the letter to speak with us. Dapeer Law can review your situation at no cost and can assist you in obtaining a copy of your notice during your free consultation.
Is there a deadline to take legal action? +
Yes. Statutes of limitations for data breach claims vary by state and legal theory, typically ranging from one to six years. Waiting can permanently bar your claim. Contact us as soon as possible for a free evaluation.
