Who Was Eligible?

Who the settlement covered:

  • You received a data breach notification letter from KYB Americas informing you that your personal information may have been compromised
  • Your personal information was stored in KYB Americas' systems and was potentially exposed during the breach
  • You are a U.S. resident who was affected by the KYB Americas data security incident
  • You experienced out-of-pocket losses, lost time, or other harm related to the data breach

How Much Did It Pay?

Eligible claimants may receive up to $5,400 as part of this settlement. The exact amount you can receive will likely depend on the type of harm you experienced and what documentation you can provide. Typically in data breach settlements like this one, there are multiple tiers of compensation: a base payment for all valid claimants (often a smaller flat amount), reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses directly related to the breach (such as credit monitoring costs, bank fees, or identity theft-related losses), and higher compensation for those who experienced documented extraordinary harm like identity theft or significant financial fraud. Keep in mind that final individual payouts may vary depending on the total number of valid claims submitted. Even if you didn't experience direct financial harm, you may still qualify for a base payment simply by submitting a valid claim.
