A Settlement has been reached with Benefit Profiles, Inc. (“Benefit Profiles” or “Defendant”) in a class action lawsuit. This case is about the cybersecurity incident affecting Defendant which occurred on or around April 2024 (the “Data Security Incident”). Certain files that contained personal information were potentially accessed. These files may have contained personal information such as Social Security numbers and health insurance information.
The lawsuit is called Barrington v. Benefit Profiles Inc., Case No. 24-11543-NZ. It is pending in the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit in Kent County, Michigan (the “Action”). Benefit Profiles denies that it did anything wrong, and the Court has not decided who is right. The parties have agreed to settle the lawsuit (the “Settlement”) to avoid the costs and risks, disruptions, and uncertainties of continuing the Action.
