The software glitch, which Honda said was fixed “within a few hours after its discovery,” affected about 775 Honda users in Ohio, the company said.
Participants access the internal Honda web site through business or personal computers, a Honda spokesman said.
Only Ohio employees were affected, the company said. A Honda spokesman did not make anyone available for an interview.
“Examples of tracked activities that could have been viewed by other participants include the number of steps tracked in a day, hours slept, or completion of a dental appointment,” the automaker said in a statement. “While a participant’s username could have been viewed by other participants, no other personally identifiable information, such as a mailing address or Social Security number, was viewable. All affected participants have been notified.”
