$20.5M CVS Digital Privacy Settlement

Who Is Eligible?

You may be eligible to file a claim if you:

• The class is every living person who accessed a CVS digital property in the United States before 27 July 2026. That is the court's wording, and it is deliberately wide — the CVS App, the CVS website and www.cvshealth.com are all named.
• You do not need to have bought anything. Accessing the app or the site is the test. No purchase, no account, no prescription required.
• You must have been a US resident at the time. The attestation on the claim form asks you to declare that specifically, separately from declaring that you used the site.
• One claim per household, and the rest are denied. The settlement defines a household as everyone residing at the same mailing address. If two people at your address both file, the later one is rejected rather than reduced — so agree who is claiming before anyone starts.
• Proof, if you want the larger payment, means something showing you were there before 27 July 2026: browser history, a dated screenshot, or an email receipt from an online CVS order.
• You do not need an ID from a letter. The form has a "Login ID" box marked if known, so it is optional. Nobody is shut out for never having received a notice.
• Claims can be audited. The form states they may be subject to audit, verification and review by the court, and you sign under penalty of perjury. Only claim the no-proof option if you did in fact use the app or the site.

How Much Can You Get?

CVS is making up to $20.5 million available, and the claim form is explicit about the order things come out of it: court-approved attorneys' fees and costs first, then service awards to the named plaintiffs, then the cost of administering the settlement. What is left funds the payments.

There are two options and you pick exactly one.

• Payment A — up to $10, with proof. You attach something showing you used a CVS digital property before 27 July 2026.
• Payment B — up to $5, no proof at all. No documentation, no explanation.

Never claim both. The form offers them as a single choice, and Payment B is written for people who cannot document Payment A.

Both figures are ceilings, and both are pro-rata. The form says either amount "may be reduced proportionately depending on the number of valid claims submitted". The class is effectively anyone in the country who opened the CVS app or website, so the number of claims could be very large and the realistic payment is likely to be under the cap. No per-person figure has been published, and anyone quoting you one is guessing.

How you get paid depends on how you file. A mailed claim is paid by check to the address on the form. PayPal, Venmo and Zelle are available only if you file online.

How to File Your Claim

File with the administrator:

• Decide first whether you can document it. A CVS email receipt, your browser history, or a dated screenshot showing you used CVS.com or the app before 27 July 2026 puts Payment A in reach, up to $10. Without any of that, Payment B needs nothing and is capped at $5.
• File it through Class Action Buddy if you would rather not do the paperwork. The app files either payment and you pick which. Choose the no-proof one and there is nothing to attach; choose the with-proof one and you add the receipt, history or screenshot in the app. Adding proof in the app is part of Class Action Buddy Pro; the no-proof payment does not require it. It fills the official form from your saved profile, you sign it on your phone, and your proof is printed with the claim and posted with it.
• Filing through the app is a mailed claim, so it pays by check. PayPal, Venmo and Zelle exist only on the administrator’s own website. If a digital payment matters more to you than the paperwork, file online yourself instead.
• Or file it yourself, online or by post. Online at CVSDigitalPrivacySettlement.com closes at 11:59 p.m. Eastern on 16 November 2026. By mail, send the form to CVS Digital Privacy Settlement, PO Box 1110, Costa Mesa, CA 92628, postmarked by 16 November 2026.
• Whichever route you take, file once. A claim filed in the app and another filed online are two claims from one person, and this settlement allows one per household — everyone at the same mailing address counts as one. The second is denied outright, not merged into the first.
• Fill in name, address, email and phone. The Login ID box says if known and can be left empty.
• Tick one payment box only — A with proof attached, or B without. The app ticks exactly one for you and never both.
• Read the attestation before signing. You are declaring, under penalty of perjury, that you accessed a CVS digital property in the United States before 27 July 2026, that you were a US resident at the time, and that any documents you attached are your own.
• You also confirm you have read CVS’s privacy disclosures at the CVS Health Privacy Center, which the form links directly.
• Questions go to the administrator, not to CVS or the court: 1-888-654-1271 or info@CVSDigitalPrivacySettlement.com.
