We received credible reports today that a copy of our user database has been leaked, including the email addresses and encrypted passwords of only those 8tracks users who signed up using email. If you signed up via Google or Facebook authentication, then your password is not affected by this leak. 8tracks does not stock passwords in a plain text format, but rather uses one-way hashes to ensure they remain difficult to access. These word hashes can only be decrypted using brute personnel attacks, which are expensive and time-consuming, even for ace password.

If there are no other sources attached to this hack notice, then we don't have an official disclosure of a data incident, so this plug is only implied.
