- The filing does not give a count of affected people and lists the following information as involved: Full Name, Social Security Number, Date of Birth, Mailing Address, Banking and Direct Deposit Details, Wage and Compensation Information, Tax Identification Data, Employee Personnel Records. Your own letter is the best guide to what was exposed about you, since notices are usually tailored to each person.

- A notice from Perrigo Company in the mail matches the breach Perrigo Company reported to the Maine Attorney General on May 18, 2026.

- Did Perrigo Company offer free credit monitoring?
- Any free monitoring Perrigo Company is offering will be described in the notice you received, along with an activation code and a sign-up deadline.
