South Korean streaming platform Tving has extended the application deadline for compensation related to its personal data breach until October 30, according to reporting by News Daily. Affected users now have additional time to submit their claims for redress following the leak.
Tving, the streaming service operated jointly by CJ ENM and Naver, disclosed a personal data breach that raised concerns among its subscriber base. In response, the company opened a compensation application process for users whose information was exposed.
The application period, which had been set to close earlier, has now been extended to October 30, giving affected subscribers more time to file claims through the company's designated channels.
The data leak affected users of the streaming platform, prompting scrutiny of how personal information is handled by major domestic online services. Details on the exact scope of the breach and the form of compensation were not specified in the available reporting, and the original News Daily article could not be directly reviewed as the full text was not retrieved.
Subscribers who believe their personal information was compromised in the incident are advised to check the compensation eligibility requirements and submission procedures announced by Tving before the new deadline.
With the deadline pushed to October 30, Tving is expected to continue processing compensation claims from affected users. The company has not announced whether further extensions will be considered beyond the revised date.
The claim that Tving extended the compensation application period for the personal data breach to October 30 is True.
