What happened
Nottingham Village, a senior-living and continuing care community headquartered in Northumberland, Pennsylvania, detected suspicious activity on its network on November 9, 2025. A forensic investigation confirmed that an unauthorized party accessed or removed files during a two-day window between November 8 and November 9, 2025. The incident was reported to the Maine Attorney General on May 22, 2026.
Nottingham Village completed its review of the affected files on May 12, 2026, approximately six months after the breach was discovered, and determined that those files contained resident personal information. The public notice lists first and last names as the data elements involved. No additional categories such as Social Security numbers, financial account details, or medical information were identified in the public filing. The company is offering complimentary credit monitoring and identity-protection services through Iris Identity Protection to affected individuals.
The approximately six-month gap between discovery and notification may be relevant under state data breach laws, which generally require prompt notice. Individuals who received a notice letter should review it carefully, enroll in the offered services, and consider consulting a data breach attorney about their legal options.
