To exclude yourself, you must submit an exclusion request online or by mail, postmarked by August 10, 2022.
If you do so, you will not receive any payment, but you will keep any rights to pursue your own lawsuit against Google or any of the Released Parties (defined in the Class Notice (Long Form)) for the claims made in this case and released by this Settlement. You may exclude yourself from (or “opt-out” of) the Settlement. You must submit a Claim Form by September 24, 2022. If you submit a Claim Form, you will give up the right to sue Google or any Released Parties in a separate lawsuit about the claims released by the Settlement, including the claims made in this case. The only way to get a payment is if you submit a Claim Form. You are a Class Member in this Settlement if, at any time between and April 25, 2022, you appeared in a photograph in Google Photos while you were an Illinois resident. The actual cash amount that an individual will receive will depend on the number of valid claims and deductions for Court-approved notice and settlement administration expenses, attorneys’ fees, litigation costs and expenses, and service payments to the Class Representatives. The lawsuit alleges that Google violated Illinois law by collecting and storing biometric data of individuals who, while residing in Illinois, appeared in a photograph in the photograph sharing and storage service known as Google Photos (“Google Photos”), without proper notice and consent.Ĭlass Members who file valid claims will be eligible to receive a pro rata portion of the $100,000,000 Settlement Fund after deduction of Court approved fees, costs, and expenses. A Settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit against Google LLC (“Defendant” or “Google”).
