April 16 (Reuters) - Zara owner Inditex ITX.MC said it had identified unauthorised access to databases hosted by a third party containing information on transactions with customers. The databases do not contain customer data, addresses, passwords, or bank card details, Inditex said in a statement late on Wednesday, adding that it immediately applied security protocols and started notifying relevant authorities. The breach "stems from a security incident that affected a former technology provider and has impacted several companies operating internationally", the company said. A spokesperson declined to give any further information. (Reporting by Helen Reid, Editing by Louise Heavens) ((helen.reid@thomsonreuters.com))
