All of these retailers (and banks) are claiming only name and email were obtained. I think they are being misleading though. Each of those companies likely has preferences stored with your email address, whether it is the type of product/service you have bought or have indicated you are interested in.

If the database was breached, surely this data was visible also. It may not be as sensitive as credit card info or financial info but it is more than they are claiming.
