If you previously received a notice letter notifying you of the data incident Hafetz discovered in October 2023, you are a Settlement Class Member and may be eligible for Settlement Benefits. The event that may have affected your data is referred to here as the “Data Incident.”
Complete a claim form if you are a Class Member and wish to receive one or more of the following Settlement Benefits by January 9, 2026
The Settlement establishes a $505,000.00 fund to compensate Settlement Class Members for their lost time and out-of-pocket losses or expenses as well as for the costs of notice and administration, and attorneys’ fees and expenses as awarded by the Court. As a Settlement Class Member, you are eligible for cash payments as reimbursement for your money spent in response to the Data Incident (such as money spent on credit monitoring or as a result of incidents of fraud or identity theft caused by the Data Incident), as well as for a pro rata cash payment. You must fill out a claim form to receive these benefits.
Credit Monitoring Services: All Settlement Class Members may claim two (2) years of Credit Monitoring Services to include credit monitoring through one national credit reporting bureau and with at least $1,000,000.00 in identity theft insurance.
Unreimbursed Economic Losses Expenses: You are eligible to receive reimbursement of actual, documented, Unreimbursed Economic Losses resulting from the Data Incident (up to $10,000.00 in total), upon submission of a claim and supporting documentation, for unreimbursed ordinary and/or extraordinary economic losses incurred as a result of the Data Incident, including, without limitation, unreimbursed losses relating to:
Fraud or identity theft;
Professional fees including attorneys’ fees, accountants’ fees, and fees for credit repair services;
Costs associated with freezing or unfreezing credit with any credit reporting agency;
Credit monitoring costs that were incurred on or after the Data Incident through the date of claim submission; and
Miscellaneous expenses such as notary, fax, postage, copying, mileage, and long-distance telephone charges.
These Unreimbursed Economic Losses must be documented; you must submit copies of documents supporting your claims, such as receipts or other documentation. “Self-prepared” documents, such as handwritten receipts, will not count as documentation, but you can submit them as clarification to other, official documents.
$50.00 pro rata Residual Cash Payment: After distributing funds for the claims payments set forth above to claimants, as well as attorneys’ fees, Class Counsel’s litigation expenses, and Administrative Fees, if there is any money left over, the remaining amount of the Settlement Fund will be distributed pro rata for each Settlement Class Member who submits a claim, which may increase or decrease the $50.00 cash payment amount.
