The lawsuit settlement solves allegations that the company has failed to protect consumers in a 2023 data breach.
The settlement benefits from individuals whose private information was leaked as a result of the data leakage discovered in September 2023.
During this breach, a third unauthorized third party was able to access sensitive information.
This can expose consumers to fraud or stealing identity.
Prosecutors of a data breach claim that Berry Dunn and reliable networks can stop this breach if they implement reasonable security measures.
Berry Dunn is an accounting and consultant company that provides services for a variety of industries.
This includes health care, government, non -profit and more organizations.
The reliable network is an information technology service provider that participates in Berry and Dunn.
Perry, Dunn, McKenil, Baker, and reliable networks did not recognize any violations, but agreed to a huge settlement worth millions of dollars.
Under the terms of settlement, separation members can obtain cash payment and credit monitoring services.
Those who have suffered from losses and have evidence of this as a result of the violation are qualified to receive up to $ 5,000 in payment.
These losses may include non -refundable fraudulent charges, identity theft losses and other documented expenses.
And the chapter members who have not experienced documented losses can get a fixed batch.
This smaller payment deserves up to $ 100.
But this amount may be modified up or down depending on the final number of claims to the settlement.
All separation members, whether they suffer from losses or not, can obtain up to three years of free credit monitoring services.
The value of these services is usually estimated at $ 90 annually, at a total value of $ 270.
Those who want to exclude them until May 7 to do so.
But be fast if you want to provide payment, as all chapter members must make a valid claim by May 22.
