"Although Dunkin' did not experience a data security breach involving its internal systems, we've been informed that third-parties obtained usernames and passwords through other companies' security breaches and used this information to log into some Dunkin' DD Perks accounts," said the company in a statement.
Dunkin' Donuts said the security breach was discovered on Oct. 31.
Officials said the information that could have been disclosed depends on what information a customer had in their account.
