If you reside in the United States, and your Personal Information was potentially accessible in the Data Security Incident experienced by Four Hands which began on or around December 27, 2023, including all those who received notice of the Data Security Incident, then you may be a Settlement Class Member and eligible for benefits. Excluded from the Settlement Class are: (1) the Judge in this case, and the Judge’s family and staff, (2) Four Hands and its officers and directors; (3) anyone who validly excludes themselves from the Settlement; and (4) anyone who perpetrated the Data Security Incident.

If you are a Class Member and wish to receive Settlement Benefits then you must submit a claim form by January 28, 2026.

The Settlement provides a number of different benefits available to Settlement Class Members who submit valid claims. All Class Members can enroll in two years of Credit Monitoring Services by a credit agency. In addition to Credit Monitoring Services, Class Members may choose between two payment options. More information about each of these benefits is below.

Credit Monitoring Services: All Class Members can enroll in two (2) years of Credit Monitoring Services by a credit agency. This benefit includes $1 million of identity theft protection insurance. A unique redemption code allowing Settlement Class Members to enroll in these services will be sent to each Settlement Class Member who submits an Approved Claim for such services.

Payment Option 1:

  • Reimbursement for Lost Time: Class Members who spent time responding to the Data Security Incident may claim up to four (4) hours, at $20.00 per hour, for a maximum of $80.00. This benefit counts toward the $300.00 cap for Out-of-Pocket Expenses as described below. Class Members must have spent the time on tasks related to the Data Security Incident. Some examples include things like changing your passwords, investigating suspicious activity in accounts, and researching the Data Security Incident.

  • Out-of-Pocket Expenses: Class Members who incurred actual, documented out-of-pocket expenses due to the Data Security Incident, can get back up to $300.00 (combined with claims for Lost Time as described above) upon submission of an Approved Claim and supporting documentation. The losses must have occurred between December 27, 2023, and January 28, 2026. This benefit covers out-of- pocket expenses like:

    • fees for credit reports, credit monitoring, or freezing and unfreezing your credit

    • cost to replace your IDs

    • postage to contact banks by mail

  • Losses for Identity Theft or Fraud: If you lost money because of identity theft or fraud, you can get back up to $3,000.00. The losses must have occurred between December 27, 2023, and January 28, 2026, and you will need to show that:

    • the theft or fraud was probably caused by the Data Security Incident

    • the losses are not already covered by Out-of-Pocket Expenses or Reimbursement for Lost Time

    • you tried to prevent the loss or get your money back, such as by using insurance you already have

Class Members who are claiming for Out-of-Pocket Expenses and/or Losses for Identity Theft or Fraud, need to send proof, like receipts, to show how much you spent or lost. “Self-prepared” documents, such as handwritten receipts are, by themselves, insufficient to receive reimbursement, but can be considered to add clarity or support to other submitted documentation If claiming for Losses for Identity Theft or Fraud, then two forms of proof, like bank statements or police reports, to show how much was spent or lost is required.

Payment Option 2: Alternative Cash Payment. Instead of the benefits in Cash Payment Option 1, Class Members may claim a one-time $15.00 cash payment.
