Proof Required?
HireVue, a company that provides AI-powered video interviewing technology, has agreed to a $3.75 million class action settlement to resolve claims that it violated the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA). The lawsuit alleged that HireVue collected and used facial geometry and other biometric data from job applicants during video interviews without properly obtaining consent or disclosing how that data would be stored and used. If you live in Illinois and completed a HireVue video interview as part of a job application process, you may be entitled to a cash payment from this settlement. You don't need to have been hired or even interviewed in person — simply participating in a HireVue video interview in Illinois could make you eligible. This settlement is a result of Illinois' strong biometric privacy law, which gives residents the right to control how their biometric identifiers — like facial scans — are collected and used by companies. HireVue has not admitted any wrongdoing as part of this agreement.

Who Is Eligible?

You may be eligible to file a claim if you:

  • You are an Illinois resident or completed a HireVue video interview while in Illinois
  • You participated in a HireVue AI-powered video interview as part of a job application
  • Your biometric data (such as facial geometry or expressions) was analyzed during the interview process
  • The interview took place during the relevant class period covered by the settlement (specific dates to be confirmed on the official claim form)

How Much Can You Get?

The total settlement fund is $3.75 million, which will be divided among all eligible class members who submit valid claims. The exact amount each person receives will depend on the total number of claims filed — the more people who file, the smaller each individual payment may be. Specific per-person payout amounts have not been publicly disclosed at this time. Under Illinois BIPA, statutory damages can range from $1,000 to $5,000 per violation, which is what drove this settlement. While individual payouts from the settlement fund are likely to be lower than the statutory maximum, filing a claim costs nothing and takes only a few minutes — making it well worth your time if you qualify.
