The court’s exact words
The Settlement includes all living individuals in the United States whose Private Information was potentially compromised in the Data Security Incident.
Quoted from the official notice. Read the notice for the full definition.
Our notes: The settlement concerns unauthorized activity in Park Dental employee accounts that Park Dental (PDG, P.A. d/b/a Park Dental) became aware of on or around January 23, 2024; it sent notice to impacted people in August 2024. Information potentially affected included names, medical information, Social Security numbers, driver's license numbers, dates of birth and financial account or payment card information, but for the vast majority of people only an internal Park Dental identification number was exposed. The class is all living individuals in the United States whose Private Information was potentially compromised. Excluded: Park Dental's directors, officers and agents; governmental entities; and the judge assigned to the case, the judge's immediate family and court staff; plus people who opt out. The $60 Lost Time Payment is only for people whose Social Security number and driver's license number were impacted according to Park Dental's records.
