Woodloch Pines Data Breach Settlement

The class covers living people in the United States whose private information was implicated in the May 2024 Woodloch data incident. Woodloch’s records may have been used to send notices to affected people.

• Woodloch and certain related people or companies are excluded.
• Government entities, the judge and the judge’s family and staff, and anyone who opts out are also excluded.

A Class Member may request two years of credit monitoring and choose one cash option. The choices are documented-loss reimbursement or a $60 alternative payment.

• The monitoring includes $1 million in identity theft insurance.
• The two cash options cannot be combined.

The notice allows up to $3,500 for actual out-of-pocket losses caused by the data incident. The losses must have occurred from May 4, 2024 through January 13, 2027.

• Examples include identity theft or fraud losses, certain credit-related fees, replacement identification costs and postage used to contact banks.
• You cannot claim expenses that another party has already reimbursed.

A documented-loss claim needs records such as bank statements or receipts that show what you spent or lost and connect the expense to the incident. Notes you prepared yourself can explain other records but cannot be the only support.

• The $60 alternative payment needs no proof or explanation.

Submit a valid Claim Form online by January 13, 2027. A mailed form, with any required supporting records, must be postmarked by the same date.

• The settlement website provides the online form and a printable form.
• The administrator can also provide a paper form by phone, email or mail.

The notice does not give a fixed payment date. Benefits will be distributed only if the court grants final approval and after any appeals are resolved.

Opting out means leaving the settlement. You would receive no settlement benefits, but you would keep any right you may have to pursue your own case over the released claims.

• A valid exclusion request must be postmarked by December 14, 2026.
• The notice lists the identifying information and signature required in the request.

You will not receive credit monitoring or a cash benefit. Unless you opted out, you will also give up the rights covered by the settlement’s release.
