UnitedLex data breach settlement: you may be entitled to benefits including cash reimbursement and free credit monitoring.
- A class action settlement has been reached in a lawsuit against UnitedLex Corp. (“ULX”), arising out of a March 2023 Data Breach that may have resulted in the exposure of your personal information.
- Under the terms of the Settlement, ULX has agreed to establish a fund of $1,300,000.00 that will be used to pay for the following forms of relief:
- Reimbursement for Out-of-Pocket Expenses: The Settlement Fund will be used to reimburse Settlement Class Members for out-of-pocket expenses or losses fairly traceable to the Data Breach, up to $15,000.00 per individual (“Out-of-Pocket Expenses”).
- Reimbursement for Lost Time: The Settlement Fund will be used to reimburse Settlement Class Members who spent money addressing issues related to the Data Breach for up to twenty (20) hours at twenty-five dollars ($25.00) per hour, totaling $500.00 per individual (“Lost Time”).
- Additional Cash Payments: If there is money remaining after reimbursing Settlement Class Members for Out-of-Pocket Expenses, Lost Time, and other Settlement-related obligations, the remaining funds will be split pro rata among participating Settlement Class Members.
- Free Credit and Identity Restoration Services: ULX will separately pay for Credit Monitoring and Identity Restoration Services which will be offered to all Settlement Class Members who elect to enroll through July 11, 2027.
- Business Practice Commitments: ULX has agreed to implement and maintain certain business practice commitments relating to its information security program from the Effective date of Settlement through July 11, 2027, including providing proof of relevant security certifications (“Business Practice Commitments”).
