You are included if you are a Settlement Class Member, which is defined as “all natural persons residing in the United States whose personal information, or data derived from their personal information, was acquired, captured, or otherwise collected by Oracle Advertising technologies or made available for use or sale by or through ID Graph, Data Marketplace, or any other Oracle Advertising product or service from August 19, 2018 to the date of final judgment in the Action.” What does the Settlement provide? Under the Settlement, Oracle will pay $115 million to establish a Settlement Fund. To submit your claim, go to: www.KatzPrivacySettlement.com/submit-claim.

After deducting any Court-approved attorneys’ fees and expenses and Service Awards for the Class Representatives, and the costs of the Settlement administration, the Settlement Fund will be distributed to Class Members on a pro rata basis.
