A major data breach discovered in January 2024 exposed personal information belonging to Parksite customers across the U.S. Now, a class action settlement is offering cash payments, reimbursement for documented losses, and free credit monitoring to those affected. If you received a Parksite breach notice, you may be eligible.
Below is a quick breakdown to help you understand your options and file your claim in just a few minutes.
Why is there a lawsuit?
A targeted cyberattack on Parksite’s systems between December 2023 and January 2024 allowed unauthorized access to files containing sensitive information — including names and Social Security numbers.
The lawsuit argued Parksite failed to safeguard this data, leading to risk of identity theft and fraud. Parksite denies wrongdoing but agreed to settle to avoid the cost and uncertainty of ongoing litigation.
Who qualifies?
You’re part of the settlement if:
You resided in the United States, and
Your personal information was compromised in the Parksite breach discovered in January 2024, and
You received a notice of the breach from Parksite.
This includes anyone who received an official notification letter or email.
How much can people get?
The settlement offers three types of benefits:
1. Documented Losses — Up to $4,600
- Out-of-pocket expenses up to $600
(credit monitoring fees, bank fees, replacement IDs, communication costs, etc.) - Identity theft or fraud losses up to $4,000
(as long as the loss is tied to the breach, not covered elsewhere, and you attempted to recover it) - Lost time reimbursement up to $75
(3 hours at $25/hr, counted under the $600 cap)
2. Alternative Cash Payment — $35
No documentation required. A simple option for those who don’t have receipts or losses.
3. Free Credit Monitoring
All class members get 1 year of credit monitoring with $1 million in identity protection insurance.
