Experts had said the hacking, which was revealed by the social networking platform on Friday, would have exposed third-party apps of users that accept Facebook logins.
“Facebook has been in touch with us and as far as we understand, there is no impact to Zomato users and their usage of Zomato as a result of this breach at Facebook,” a Zomato spokesperson said. The online food delivery and restaurant discovery company has about 120,000 users across Zomato Treats and about 160,000 across Zomato Gold.
Facebook had about 270 million users in India at the end of July, according to the Statista website. Some companies allow users to access their apps through Facebook logins.
A TripAdvisor spokesperson told ET that at this time, there is no evidence that any of its user information has been affected or compromised. Hotstar<\/a> and BookMyShow didn’t respond to emails seeking comment till the time of going to press.
Rahul Kumar, cofounder of dating app Truly Madly, which requires a Facebook login, said his users were not impacted by the data breach. Aditya Gupta, cofounder of iGenero, said dating apps that are solely dependent on Facebook logins for access could be the most affected by the hack.
“People use Facebook logins to avoid creating other new accounts on apps and they think it’s convenient. Going forward, this will be a big issue for third-party apps and they might be figuring how to reduce dependency on the platform,” Gupta said.
Globally, dating app Tinder has asked Facebook to share more information on the breach.
Facebook said on Friday that hackers had exploited a bug in a feature that lets users see their Facebook page as others would. The hackers were able to take over the accounts and use them as if they were the account holders. That included posting or viewing information shared by friends on those accounts. Facebook said no credit card information stored with the company was accessed.
More than 90 million users were forcibly logged out of their accounts by Facebook and had to log back in on Friday for security reasons.
