Breach advisory

I received the following message today from breach-alerts@mozilla.com: "'On August 23, 2015, ClearVoice Surveys was breached. Once the breach was discovered and verified, it was added to our database . . . " This breach occurred on August 23, 2015, some six years ago, according to the advisory. The advisory lists "Passwords, IP addresses, Phone numbers, Email addresses, Dates of birth, Physical addresses, Additional information, including Genders, Names" as compromised data.

The advisory then says to "change your password" without saying to what site. I am left to assume that means the password to "ClearVoice Surveys." I have no account there nor have I ever had one. How, then, is it possible for all those data points listed above to be compromised? Even if I answered some survey it published, how would it know any of my passwords if I never entered any of them on that site (which I would never do)? Frankly, this advisory posits such an implausible scenario, and an equally implausible solution, as to be useless.

There is no explanation as to how any of the hazards alleged to accompany this "breach" will affect my accounts. If there is a way, then please explain how it is possible for all that data to be accessible to anyone on account of that breach.
