5 credit unions land on problem list
Five local credit unions landed on Bauer Financial’s problem list for the fourth quarter. They are Beaver Avenue federal credit union on the North Side, which earned two stars out of five; Central Valley federal credit union, Arnold, one star; Hill District federal credit union, Hill District, two stars; Pittsburgh federal credit union, Mount Oliver, two stars; and Teamsters Local 30, Jeannette, zero stars. Making the list does not signal that an institution is about to fail, but customers should make sure their deposits do not exceed
federal insurance limits, BauerFinancial has said. No area banks made the problem list.
Pa. attorney general sues over Uber data breach
Uber has violated Pennsylvania’s data breach notification law, according to state Attorney General Josh Shapiro. On Monday, the Bureau of Consumer Protection filed a civil suit against the San Francisco-based ride-hailing company. At least 13,500 Pennsylvania Uber drivers were impacted by a 2016 data breach, Mr. Shapiro’s office said, and the company knew about the hack for more than a year before notifying impacted users last November. That flies against the Pennsylvania Breach of Personal Information Notification Act, enacted in 2006 to promote transparency in business organizations that maintain, store or manage computerized personal data.
