Is this settlement real?

We checked it on its official website, cbizdatabreachsettlement.com, on 28 October 2026, and quote that site’s own words for the deadline above. The official website is the one named in the court-approved notice; if a letter or email about this settlement points you to a different address, do not use it. Filing is always free: never pay a fee, never give a bank password, and never reply to a message that urges you to “claim now” through another link.

How to file

  1. Open the official site: use the link above, or type the address from your notice.
  2. If you got a notice by letter or email, have it to hand: it usually carries a claim or class member ID that speeds things up. No notice? The site usually says how to check whether you are included.
  3. Pick the benefit you want (a cash payment, reimbursement of losses with receipts, or credit monitoring, as the settlement offers) and submit before the deadline.
  4. Keep the confirmation. Payments come after the court’s final approval and any appeals, often months later, and the amount per person can depend on how many people file.
