TiVo is reporting that an "unauthorized person" gained access to email addresses and the first names of its customers after a security breach into a database, according to Multichannel News.

TiVo said the security breach happened at a third-party marketing company called Epsilon, an email marketing vendor, the story says. Epsilon doesn’t have access to credit-card details or personally identifiable information, TiVo said.

The breach occurred on March 30 and Epsilon is conducting an investigation, with TiVo noting it is running its own internal investigation to verify the information from Epsilon, the story says.
