Submit a Claim - Claim Instructions

The Claim Form should be filled out online or submitted by mail if you had documented out-of-pocket expenses, or wish to receive a pro rata Cash Payment and Dark Web Monitoring. Checks will be mailed, or electronic payments will be made, to eligible Settlement Class Members if the Settlement is approved by the Court.

Complete information about the Settlement and settlement benefits are available in the Notice and on the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page of this website.

Claim Forms must be submitted online or postmarked (if mailed) no later than August 29, 2025. Claims submitted after the deadline will be deemed untimely and may not be accepted.

As a Brightline Settlement Subclass member, you may file a Claim Form for the below Settlement Class Member Benefits only to the extent that you have not been fully compensated under the prior Brightline Settlement. The Brightline Settlement was a settlement involving some of the claims in this case arising out of the Data Incident. The Brightline Settlement was approved by the Court, and you were previously given an opportunity to submit a claim for benefits.

If you are a Brightline Subclass Settlement member who submitted a claim in the Brightline Settlement, and you received benefits from that settlement, you may only Claim benefits from this Settlement to the extent you were not fully compensated for your injuries in the Brightline Settlement. This means that you either selected Cash Payment A in the Brightline Settlement and your documented losses since filing the Claim in that settlement exceed the compensation received from the Settlement, or you elected to receive Cash Payment B (flat payment) under the Brightline Settlement, but you have incurred additional Documented Losses after the date your claim was filed in the Brightline Settlement. Either way, the most you can recover between the Brightline Settlement and this Settlement for Documented Losses is $5,000.
