The email did not mention order history. Do you know if our personal order history was among the items compromised?

There really is no good news in this type of situation, but only the data items mentioned by Tony in the email above were compromised.
i'm picturing the blackmail note:
"dear bestnameever, i know about those high heels you bought, and i happen to know you don't have a girlfriend. $1000 in unmarked bills or we tell your father you're a cross-dresser."
Or the incredibly geeky wife who suspects her husband is showering the hot secretary with shoes and handbags, and confirms it by poring over the breached data.
