Why did I get this Notice? The Court authorized this Notice because you have a right to know about a proposed Settlement, and your rights and options, before the Court decides whether to approve the Settlement. This Notice explains the lawsuit, the Settlement, and your legal rights. It also describes the available benefits, who is eligible to receive them, and how to get them. Your legal rights are affected whether you act or not. Judge Beth Labson Freeman, of the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, is in charge of this case and will decide whether to approve the Settlement. This lawsuit is known as In re Google Assistant Privacy Litigation, No. 4:19-cv-04286. The people who sued are called the “Plaintiffs.” Google is the “Defendant.” If you have questions, you can visit the website www.GoogleAssistantPrivacyLitigation.com, call toll-free 1-877-411-4704, or write to the Claims Administrator at the address below for more information. Google Assistant Privacy Settlement c/o A.B. Data, Ltd. P.O. Box 170500 Milwaukee, WI 53217 info@GoogleAssistantPrivacyLitigation.com 2. What is this lawsuit about? The lawsuit alleges that Google Assistant can activate and record communications even when a user does not intentionally trigger Google Assistant with a Hot Word, like “Okay Google,” or manually activate Google Assistant on their device. Plaintiffs refer to such instances as “False Accepts” and allege that Google wrongfully collects, uses, and discloses user audio recordings from False Accepts, including to improve the speech recognition abilities of Google Assistant. Plaintiffs claim Google’s conduct violates individuals’ privacy rights, constitutes a breach of the privacy assurances that Google makes to users in its Privacy Policy, and is an unlawful practice. Google denies all of Plaintiffs’ allegations. The Court has not made any determination as to who is right or whether Google did anything wrong. This Notice is only a summary. More detail is provided in the Settlement Agreement, available at www.GoogleAssistantPrivacyLitigation.com. 3. What are Google-Made Devices and Google Assistant Enabled Devices? Google-Made Devices are devices manufactured and sold by Google either directly or through third-party retailers that come with Google Assistant pre-installed or on which Google Assistant can be downloaded, including Google’s smart home speakers (Google Home, Home Mini, and Home Max); smart displays (Google Nest Hub and Google Nest Hub Max); and Pixel smartphones. QUESTIONS? CALL 1-877-411-4704 OR VISIT WWW.GOOGLEASSISTANTPRIVACYLITIGATION.COM. 5 Google Assistant Enabled Devices include both Google-Made Devices and non-Google made devices that come with Google Assistant pre-installed or on which Google Assistant can be downloaded, such as smartphones, smart speakers, smart displays, or smart TVs with a microphone. Household devices, such as thermostats, vacuums, humidifiers, and other electronic tools and devices that are not equipped with a microphone or that do not have Google Assistant pre-installed and do not have the capability of having a Google Assistant application downloaded onto them are not considered Google Assistant Enabled Devices. 4. What is a class action? In a class action, one or more people called “class representatives” sue on behalf of themselves and other people who have similar claims. These people together are a “class” or “class members.” One court decides the issues for all class members, except for those people who exclude themselves from the class. In this case, Asif Kumandan is the class representative for the Purchaser Settlement Class and Asif Kumandan, Melissa Spurr, Lourdes Galvan, and Eleeanna Galvan are the class representatives for the Privacy Settlement Class. (See Question 6.) 5. Why is there a Settlement? The Court did not decide in favor of the Plaintiffs or Google. Instead, both sides agreed to a Settlement. That way, both sides avoid the costs and risks of a trial, and the Settlement Class Members will receive the benefits described in this Notice, whereas they might otherwise get nothing. The proposed Settlement does not mean that any law was broken or that Google did anything wrong. The class representatives and their attorneys think the Settlement is best for all Settlement Class Members. WHO IS IN THE SETTLEMENT? 6. Who is in the Settlement? You are included in this Settlement and are a Settlement Class Member if you are a member of one or both of the following Settlement Classes: ● You are a member of the Purchaser Settlement Class if you are a User who purchased a Google-Made Device in the United States or its territories between May 18, 2016 and March 19, 2026. ● You are a member of the Privacy Settlement Class if you are a User of Google Assistant or were a member of a User’s Household between May 18, 2016 and March 19, 2026, and your communications were recorded or otherwise obtained by Google Assistant as a result of a False Accept or disclosed to any third-party review vendor. ● “Users” are individuals who reside in the United States or its territories whose Google accounts were associated with at least one Google Assistant Enabled Device during the Class Period; ● “Household” is a group of individuals sharing a common abode; QUESTIONS?

Who is not included? You are not included in this Settlement if you are: ● Any judge or magistrate presiding over this lawsuit, or any members of their families or staff; ● Google, Google’s subsidiaries, successors, predecessors, and any entity in which Google or its parent has a controlling interest, and their current or former employees, officers, and directors; ● A person who properly executes and files a timely Request for Exclusion from the Settlement Classes (see Question 21); ● A person whose claims in this matter have been finally adjudicated on the merits or otherwise released; ● Any individual who previously opted out of the certified Purchaser Class, as identified at ECF No. 440-4, unless you choose to rejoin the Settlement Classes (see Question 26); ● Any individual who, no later than August 27, 2026, both (A) file or serve a written arbitration demand, or provide written notice to Google of their intent to pursue arbitration against Google relating to the Released Claims, and (B) execute an individual release of their claims; ● Any legal representatives, successors, and assigns of any excluded persons; and ● Plaintiffs’ Counsel and Defendants’ Counsel. 8.

CALL 1-877-411-4704 OR VISIT WWW.GOOGLEASSISTANTPRIVACYLITIGATION.COM. 7 THE SETTLEMENT BENEFITS 9. What does the Settlement provide? If the Settlement is approved and becomes final, money will be provided to eligible Settlement Class Members. Google will pay $68 million into a Settlement Fund. The Settlement Fund will be used to pay: ● Notice and administration costs; ● Escrow fees; ● Taxes (and tax expenses); ● Attorneys’ fees and expenses authorized by the Court; ● Service awards for each named Plaintiff authorized by the Court; and ● Timely and valid Claims made by eligible Settlement Class Members. The Settlement Agreement, available at www.GoogleAssistantPrivacyLitigation.com, has more information. 10. How much will my payment be? At this time, it is unknown how much each Settlement Class Member who files a timely and valid claim will receive. The Net Settlement Fund (that is, the Settlement fund minus notice and administration costs, escrow fees, taxes and taxes expenses, and any Court-approved attorneys’ fees and expenses and service awards to the named Plaintiffs) will be used to pay eligible Settlement Class Members based on a Plan of Allocation. The Plan of Allocation has been filed with the Court and is available for review at www.GoogleAssistantPrivacyLitigation.com. The Net Settlement Fund will be divided proportionally among members of the Purchaser Settlement Class and Privacy Settlement Class who file timely and valid Claim Forms based on the number of points allocated per timely and valid Claim Form. Claimants who are members of the Purchaser Settlement Class will be assigned four (4) points for every eligible Google-Made Device included in their Claim, up to a cap of three (3) Google-Made Devices. Claimants who are members of the Privacy Settlement Class will be assigned one (1) point. Money will be paid proportionally based on the total number of points for each Claimant. Each Settlement Class Member must submit an individual Claim, except that parents or legal guardians must submit a Claim Form for a member of the Settlement Classes who is under the age of 18 as of August 27, 2026. The final payment amounts will not be known until the Claims Administrator determines the total number of eligible Claimants and the total number of points reflected by their Claim Forms. QUESTIONS? CALL 1-877-411-4704 OR VISIT WWW.GOOGLEASSISTANTPRIVACYLITIGATION.COM. 8 11. What happens if there are funds remaining after distribution? If there are any funds remaining after all Settlement distributions are made, to the extent feasible, the Claims Administrator will send a second distribution to Authorized Claimants who cashed their initial distribution from the Net Settlement Fund. If it is not feasible to distribute the remaining funds among such Authorized Claimants, the remaining funds will be distributed to a non-profit organization approved by the Court. No remaining funds will be returned to Google. 12. What am I giving up if I stay in the Settlement? Unless you exclude yourself (or excluded yourself from the previously certified purchaser class and do not elect to rejoin the Settlement Classes) (see Questions 21-26), you cannot sue, continue to sue, or be part of any other legal proceeding against Google about the claims in this lawsuit. All of the Court’s decisions will bind you. The “Releases” section in the Settlement Agreement describes the legal claims that you give up if you remain in the Settlement. The Settlement Agreement can be viewed at www.GoogleAssistantPrivacyLitigation.com. If you have any questions, you can talk to the lawyers listed in Question 18 for free, or you can talk to your own lawyer if you have questions about what this means. HOW TO GET A PAYMENT 13. How can I get a payment? To ask for a payment, you must complete and submit a valid Claim Form by August 27, 2026. You can get a Claim Form at www.GoogleAssistantPrivacyLitigation.com or by calling 1-877- 411-4704. If you received an email about this Settlement that included a Unique ID and PIN number, you should use these codes when you submit your Claim Form. If you did not receive an email and do not have a Unique ID and PIN number, you can still submit a Claim Form if you are a Settlement Class Member. You must submit your Claim Form online at www.GoogleAssistantPrivacyLitigation.com or by mail postmarked no later than August 27, 2026. Claims submitted by mail should be sent to: Google Assistant Privacy Settlement c/o A.B. Data, Ltd. P.O. Box 170500 Milwaukee, WI 53217 Each Claim Form must be personally signed under penalty of perjury and must be supported by the information or documents specified in the instructions contained in the Claim Form or otherwise given by the Claims Administrator. The bulk submission of Claim Forms by any claims aggregator or person or entity who claims to be an assignee of rights associated with any of the claims that were or could have been alleged in the Action will not be permitted. QUESTIONS? CALL 1-877-411-4704 OR VISIT WWW.GOOGLEASSISTANTPRIVACYLITIGATION.COM. 9 14. How do Settlement Class Members who are minors (under the age of 18) file a claim? If a Settlement Class Member is a minor, their Claim must be submitted and signed by their parent or legal guardian. A minor is defined as a person who is under the age of 18 as of August 27, 2026. 15. When will I get my payment? Authorized Claimants will receive their payments if the Court grants final approval to the Settlement and after any appeals are resolved. If there are appeals, resolving them can take time. Please be patient. 16. How can I verify or update my contact information? If you change your mailing address or email address after you submit a Claim Form, it is your responsibility to give your updated contact information to the Claims Administrator. You can tell the Claims Administrator about changes to your contact information by calling 1-877-411-4704, emailing info@GoogleAssistantPrivacyLitigation.com, or writing to: Google Assistant Privacy Settlement c/o A.B. Data, Ltd. P.O. Box 170500 Milwaukee, WI 53217 17. Can I file a claim if I excluded myself previously? It depends. If you excluded yourself from the previously certified purchaser class but now wish to file a claim as part of this Settlement, you must rejoin the Settlement Classes. If you do not rejoin the Settlement Classes, you are not included and cannot file a claim in this Settlement. To rejoin the Settlement Classes, please submit a Claim Form as directed in Question 13. Submission of a Claim Form will withdraw your prior request for exclusion and cause you to rejoin the Settlement Classes. THE LAWYERS REPRESENTING YOU 18. Do I have a lawyer in the case? Yes. The Court has appointed lawyers to represent you and the other Settlement Class Members. These lawyers are called Class Counsel. The following lawyers are lead counsel in representing the Settlement Classes: Erin Green Comite Christian Levis Scott+Scott Attorneys at Law LLP Lowey Dannenberg 156 South Main Street 44 South Broadway, Suite 1100 P.O. Box 192 White Plains, NY 10601 Colchester, CT 06415 You will not be charged for contacting these lawyers. If you want to be represented by your own lawyer, you may hire one at your own expense. QUESTIONS? CALL 1-877-411-4704 OR VISIT WWW.GOOGLEASSISTANTPRIVACYLITIGATION.COM. 10 19. Should I get my own lawyer? You do not need to hire your own lawyer because Class Counsel is working on your behalf. You may, however, hire your own lawyer to represent you if you wish. For example, you can ask your own lawyer to appear in Court if you want someone other than Class Counsel to speak for you. You may also appear for yourself without a lawyer. If you hire your own lawyer, you will have to pay for that lawyer on your own. 20. How will the lawyers be paid? Plaintiffs’ Counsel will ask the Court for an award of attorneys’ fees of up to one-third of the Settlement Fund, expenses of up to $1,600,000, and up to $10,000 in service awards for each class representative for their work on behalf of the Settlement Classes. The Court will determine these amounts. Any attorneys’ fees, expenses, notice and administration costs, and service awards approved by the Court will be paid out of the Settlement Fund. A copy of Plaintiffs’ Counsel’s Motion for Attorneys’ Fees and Expenses and for Plaintiffs’ Service Awards will be available at www.GoogleAssistantPrivacyLitigation.com within three business days after filing the motion with the Court on July 23, 2026. EXCLUDING YOURSELF FROM THE SETTLEMENT If you do not want a payment from the Settlement and you want to keep your right, if any, to sue Google on your own about the claims in this lawsuit, then you must take steps to get out of the Settlement. This is called excluding yourself from – or “opting out” of – the Settlement. 21. How do I get out of the Settlement? To exclude yourself from the Settlement, you must send a request in writing by First-Class U.S. Mail, or electronically via the exclusion request portal on the Settlement Website. Your Request for Exclusion must include: ● Your full name, address, telephone number, and email address; ● The case name and number: In re Google Assistant Privacy Litigation, No. 4:19-cv-04286; ● Information or proof that shows that you are member of one or both of the Settlement Classes (e.g., the unique ID from your email notice or the email address associated with your or your Household member’s Google Assistant Enabled Devices); ● A statement that you would like to “opt out” or be excluded from the Settlement Classes; and ● Your handwritten signature in ink or signature submitted through the exclusion request portal on the Settlement Website and the date of your signature. Electronic signatures (including DocuSign signatures) will not be considered a personal signature and will be deemed invalid, except those submitted through the exclusion request portal on the Settlement Website. You must personally sign and date your Request for Exclusion; your lawyer (if applicable) may not sign on your behalf. However, a parent or legal guardian is allowed to sign on behalf of a minor who is opting out. QUESTIONS? CALL 1-877-411-4704 OR VISIT WWW.GOOGLEASSISTANTPRIVACYLITIGATION.COM. 11 Your Request for Exclusion must either be submitted electronically via the exclusion request portal on the Settlement Website no later than August 27, 2026, or be postmarked no later than August 27, 2026, and sent via First-Class U.S. Mail to: Google Assistant Privacy Settlement EXCLUSIONS c/o A.B. Data, Ltd. P.O. Box 173001 Milwaukee, WI 53217 Each Request for Exclusion must be submitted individually. Requests for Exclusion on behalf of groups, including “mass” or “class” opt outs, will not be permitted. Any Settlement Class Member who does not submit a timely and valid written request for exclusion will be bound by all Court proceedings, orders, and judgments, whether or not he, she, or it timely submits a Claim Form. 22. If I exclude myself from the Settlement, can I still get a payment? No. You will not get a payment if you exclude yourself. 23. If I don’t exclude myself, can I sue Google for the same thing later? No. Unless you exclude yourself, you give up the right to sue Google for the claims this Settlement resolves. You must exclude yourself from the Settlement if you want to try to pursue your own lawsuit. 24. What happens if I opt out? If you opt out of the Settlement or previously excluded yourself from the certified Purchaser Class and do not rejoin the Settlement Classes, you will not have any rights as a Settlement Class Member under this Settlement. You will not get a payment from the Settlement and will not be bound by any further orders or judgments in this case. Also, you will keep the right, if any, to sue Google on your own for claims in this lawsuit at your own expense. If a Settlement Class Member who did not previously exclude themselves from the certified Purchaser Class submits both a Claim Form and a timely Request for Exclusion, the Settlement Class Member will be excluded from the Settlement and their Claim Form will be void and invalid, unless they ask to cancel their exclusion request. 25. If I excluded myself earlier, do I need to exclude myself again? No. If you submitted a timely request to exclude yourself from the certified Purchaser Class in 2024, you will continue to be excluded from this Settlement unless you rejoin one or both of the Settlement Classes by submitting a valid and timely Claim Form. 26. How do I cancel my previous opt-out request? If you excluded yourself from the certified Purchaser Class in 2024 but want to rejoin one or both of the Settlement Classes now, you can cancel your previous opt-out (or exclusion) request. To do so, you may submit a valid and timely Claim Form by August 27, 2026, in accordance with the instructions in Question 13. QUESTIONS? CALL 1-877-411-4704 OR VISIT WWW.GOOGLEASSISTANTPRIVACYLITIGATION.COM. 12 OBJECTING TO THE SETTLEMENT 27. How do I tell the Court if I do not like the Settlement? If you are a Settlement Class Member, you have a right to object to or comment on any part of the proposed Settlement, Plan of Allocation, and/or the request for attorneys’ fees and expenses and service awards. The Court will consider your views. You cannot ask the Court to order a different Settlement; the Court can only approve or reject the Settlement. If the Court does not approve the Settlement, no Settlement payments will be made, and the lawsuit will continue. If that is what you want to happen, you must object. To object, you must send a letter to the Court saying that you object to the proposed Settlement in In re Google Assistant Privacy Litigation, No. 4:19-cv-04286. Your objection letter must include: ● Your full name, address, telephone number, and email address; ● If you have a lawyer, your lawyer’s full name, address, telephone number, and email address; ● The case name and number: In re Google Assistant Privacy Litigation, No. 4:19-cv-04286; ● Information or proof that shows that you are included in one or both of the Settlement Classes (e.g., the unique ID from your email notice or the email address associated with your or your Household member’s Google Assistant Enabled Device); ● The reasons you object to the proposed Settlement, Plan of Allocation, and/or the request for attorneys’ fees and expenses and service awards; ● Any documents or evidence that you think supports your objection; ● A statement saying if your objection applies only to you, part of the Settlement Classes, or all Settlement Classes; ● A list of all cases in which you or your lawyer filed an objection within the past five years; ● A statement of whether you and/or your lawyer intend to speak at the Final Approval Hearing; ● The identity of any witnesses you may call to testify at the Final Approval Hearing and all exhibits you intend to introduce at the Final Approval Hearing; and ● Your signature in ink and the date of your signature (electronic signatures, including but not limited to DocuSign, will not be considered personal signature and will be deemed invalid). You must personally sign and date your objection; your lawyer (if applicable) may not solely sign on your behalf. However, a parent or legal guardian is allowed to sign on behalf of a minor who is objecting. If you are approved to file electronically through the Court’s CM/ECF system, you can file the objection electronically at https://ecf.cand.uscourts.gov/. Otherwise, you can file the objection in person at any location of the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, or mail the objection by First-Class U.S. Mail, so that it is submitted electronically or postmarked no later than August 27, 2026, to the following address: QUESTIONS? CALL 1-877-411-4704 OR VISIT WWW.GOOGLEASSISTANTPRIVACYLITIGATION.COM. 13 Court Clerk of Court United States District Court Northern District of California 280 South 1st Street San Jose, CA 95113 28. If I object to the Settlement, can I still file a claim? Yes. If you are a Settlement Class Member, you may file a claim even if you object to, or comment on, the Settlement. 29. What is the difference between objecting and asking to be excluded? Objecting is simply telling the Court that you do not like something about the Settlement. You can only object if you stay in the Settlement Classes. If you object to the Settlement, you can still submit a Claim Form as a Settlement Class Member. Excluding yourself is telling the Court that you do not want to be a part of the Settlement. If you exclude yourself, you cannot receive a payment from the Settlement. If you exclude yourself, you cannot object to the Settlement, because it no longer affects you. THE COURT’S FINAL APPROVAL HEARING 30. When and where will the Court decide whether to approve the Settlement? The Court will hold a Final Approval Hearing on October 1, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. PT at the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, San Jose Courthouse, 280 South 1st Street, Courtroom 1 – 5th Floor, San Jose, CA 95113. At this hearing, the Court will consider whether the Settlement is fair, reasonable, and adequate. If there are objections, the Court will consider them and listen to Settlement Class Members who have asked to speak at the hearing. The Court may also decide whether and how much to award in attorneys’ fees and expenses and service awards to the class representatives. After the hearing, the Court will decide whether to approve the Settlement. We do not know how long these decisions will take. The Court may reschedule the Final Approval Hearing or change any of the deadlines described in this Notice. The Final Approval Hearing may be moved to a different date or time and may change without additional notice. Be sure to check the website, www.GoogleAssistantPrivacyLitigation.com, for updates. You can also access the case docket via the Court’s Public Access to Court Electronic Records (PACER) system at https://ecf.cand.uscourts.gov. QUESTIONS? CALL 1-877-411-4704 OR VISIT WWW.GOOGLEASSISTANTPRIVACYLITIGATION.COM. 14 31. Do I have to come to the Final Approval Hearing? No. Class Counsel will answer any questions the Court may have. You may attend at your own expense if you wish. If you send an objection, you do not have to come to the Final Approval Hearing to talk about it. As long as you mailed your written objection on time, the Court will consider it. You may also pay your own lawyer to attend, but it is not necessary. 32. May I speak at the Final Approval Hearing? Yes. You may ask the Court for permission to speak at the Final Approval Hearing, either in person or through your own lawyer. If you appear through your own lawyer, you are responsible for hiring and paying that lawyer. To do so, you (or your lawyer) must submit to the Court a notice that you intend to appear at the Final Approval Hearing in In re Google Assistant Privacy Litigation, No. 4:19-cv-04286.
