The internet is all fun and games until someone falls victim to a data breach incident. Suppose you ever have any privacy concerns or concerns about cybersecurity threats. In that case, it’s better to be safe than sorry; ensure that you have taken all the measures to safeguard your data. If not, you might become one of the parties in a class action lawsuit, just like the one that is paying out $5,000 to all qualifying class members. If you are a class member, remember to file your claim by the deadline.

The new data breach class action lawsuit

A Pennsylvanian health insurance company called Imagine360 has been making headlines, and not for the reasons you might think. The company, offering services such as telemedicine and health plan administration, fell victim to a data breach incident on January 30, 2023. Many users were affected by the incident, and a class action settlement followed.

According to the plaintiffs, the defendant, Imagine360, failed to implement necessary cybersecurity measures. As a result, hackers were able to breach personal employee health plan information in the company’s Citrix file-sharing solution, including:

  • Social Security numbers
  • Medical information
  • Health insurance data

The company denied all wrongdoing, but agreed to a $475,000 settlement to resolve allegations made against them. According to the terms of the settlement, qualifying citizens will be eligible to claim monetary reimbursements, as well as non-monetary benefits.

Only these citizens will qualify to claim from the settlement

Not just anyone can claim from a settlement. While each class action settlement differs in the amount it can reimburse for losses experienced, they all have one thing in common: Only qualifying citizens (called class members) can claim from a settlement. To be deemed a class member for the Imagine360 data breach class action settlement, you must meet the following criteria:

  • You reside in the US
  • You received a notice from Imagine360 informing you that your data was potentially compromised in the January 30, 2023, data breach

If you meet the above criteria, you are officially deemed a class member. All class members can claim either documented losses or a flat cash payment, as well as non-monetary benefits.

This is what class members can claim:

  • Documented Losses:
    • Up to $5,000 for out-of-pocket losses purchased between January 30, 2023, and the claim deadline
    • Must provide supporting documentation
    • Out-of-pocket losses such as bank charges, long-distance phone expenses, cell phone charges (if charged by the minute), data expenses (if charged by usage), postage, gasoline for local travel, and fees for credit reports, credit monitoring, or identity theft insurance
  • Flat Cash Payment:
    • If you do not wish to provide documentation
    • Approximately $75
    • The final amount is to be determined by the number of claims submitted
  • Credit Monitoring:
    • All class members qualify
    • Up to three years of free credit monitoring.

All claims must be filed by the upcoming deadline

Claims can be submitted online, or class members may download a PDF hard copy and mail it to the settlement administrator. The mailing address is: Imagine360 Data Breach Litigation Settlement Administrator, P.O. Box 2440, Portland, OR 97208-2440. All claims must be submitted by the deadline, July 31, 2025.

Required supporting documentation

  • Unique ID from the notice
  • Telephone records
  • Receipts
  • Bank or credit card statements
  • Service invoices
  • Other proof detailing expenses and fraud related to the data breach incident

A final approval hearing is scheduled for August 15, 2025. According to the settlement, class members can expect payouts no later than 75 days after the settlement has received final approval from the court. As you await the hearing, have a look at other class action settlements for reimbursement opportunities.

Disclaimer: You should not submit false or inflated claims under penalty of perjury, as class‑action claim forms historically required declarations signed “under penalty of perjury” to ensure authenticity. Submitting a fraudulent claim not only carries legal exposure—including potential civil and criminal sanctions—but also harms other eligible class members by diluting the available settlement pool.
