If you are a living individual residing in the United States and were sent a notice of the Data Incident indicating your Private Information may have been impacted in the March 2025 cyber incident, then you may be a Settlement Class Member. Excluded from the Settlement Class are: (1) all persons who are directors, officers, and agents of WaterStreet, or its respective subsidiaries and affiliated companies; (2) governmental entities; (3) the Judge assigned to the Action, that Judge’s immediate family, and Court staff; and (4) any Settlement Class Member who timely opt outs of the Settlement Class as instructed in the Settlement Agreement; (5) the attorneys representing the Plaintiffs and WaterStreet in the lawsuit; and (6) any person found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be guilty under criminal law of initiating, causing, aiding, or abetting the Data Incident, or who pleads nolo contendere to any such charge.
If you are a Settlement Class Member and wish to receive Settlement Benefits then you must submit a Claim Form by August 19, 2026.
All Settlement Class Members may claim Credit Monitoring and one of two Cash Payment options. There is a cap of $500,000.00 on Cash Payments. This means that if the total value of benefits claimed is over $500,000.00, everyone’s payments will be reduced pro rata so that they add up to $500,000.00. The benefits are explained in more detail below.
Credit Monitoring. All Settlement Class Members are eligible to enroll in three (3) years of CyEx Financial Shield Complete. Enrollment codes will be sent by a Postcard mailed to you. Visit http://app.financialshield.com/enrollment/activate/waterstreet to enroll. Your CyEx Financial Shield Complete subscription will become active once the Court grants Final Approval to this Settlement (i.e. approves the Settlement). If you no longer have your enrollment code, please contact the Settlement Administrator. This comprehensive service comes with $1 million of financial fraud insurance, and includes monitoring for:
If anything suspicious happens, you will be able to talk to a fraud resolution agent to help fix any problems.
Cash Payment A - Documented Losses. If you incurred actual, documented out-of-pocket losses due to the Data Incident, you can get back up to $3,000.00. The losses must have occurred between March 17, 2025, and August 19, 2026. You must have also made reasonable efforts to avoid, or seek reimbursement for, the loss. This payment may be smaller depending on the total claims filed. This benefit covers out-of-pocket expenses like:
losses because of identity theft or fraud
fees for credit reports, credit monitoring, or freezing and unfreezing your credit
cost to replace your IDs
postage to contact banks by mail
You need to submit third-party proof, like bank statements or receipts, to show how much you spent or lost. You can also provide notes or papers you made yourself to explain or support other proof, but those notes or papers alone are not enough to make a valid claim. Your proof should show that your expenses were because of the Data Incident or more likely than not caused by the Data Incident. Again, personal certifications, declarations, or affidavits do not constitute reasonable documentation to make a valid claim, but may be used to provide clarification, context, or support for other reasonable documentation.
You cannot claim payment for expenses that have already been reimbursed by a third party. This includes reimbursement in connection with the credit monitoring and identity theft protection product offered as part of the notification letter provided by WaterStreet or otherwise. There will also be no payments for emotional distress, personal/bodily injury, or to punish WaterStreet.
Cash Payment B - Alternative Cash. Instead of Cash Payment A, you may claim a one-time cash payment. This payment is expected to be $55.00 but may be larger or smaller depending on the total claims filed.
