Stitch Connect, Inc. (“Stitch Connect”), a San Francisco-based online community for older adults, has announced a data breach that may have exposed sensitive personal and medical information belonging to certain individuals. The company began notifying affected individuals on October 16, 2026.

What Happened in the Stitch Connect Data Breach?

Stitch Connect is headquartered in San Francisco, California, and operates Stitch, an online social and companionship community for adults aged 50 and older. Members can browse profiles, join interest groups, and take part in local activities, events, and group travel.

The breach was reported to the Texas Attorney General on October 16, 2026, and the filing lists 4,062 people affected. That figure is reported as a count of Texas residents, so the total number of people affected across all states has not been publicly confirmed. Stitch Connect notified affected individuals by email.
