How Much Can You Get?
The settlement offers two main compensation options depending on your situation. If you experienced documented out-of-pocket losses as a result of the data breach — such as fraudulent charges, credit monitoring costs, or time spent dealing with identity theft — you may be able to claim up to $5,000 in reimbursement. You'll need to provide documentation to support these losses. If you didn't suffer direct financial harm but were still affected by the breach, you can claim an approximate cash payment of around $100.
