A Court authorized this website.

A settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit claiming that Defendant, The University of Phoenix, Inc., disclosed its students’ personally identifiable information (“PII”) to Meta Platforms, Inc. and other third parties without consent in violation of the Video Privacy Protection Act, 18 U.S.C. § 2710, et seq., the Electronic Communications and Privacy Act, 18 U.S.C. § 2510, et seq., and the Illinois Eavesdropping Act, 720 Ill. Comp. Stat. 5/14-1, et seq. Defendant denies that it violated any law but has agreed to the settlement to avoid the uncertainties and expenses associated with continuing the case.

If approved by the Court, Defendant will pay $25.00 to all valid Claimants (subject to pro rata reduction should the Gross Maximum Funding amount of $8,750,000 be reached). Defendant has agreed to pay all approved claims to the Settlement Class, together with notice and administrative expenses, approved attorneys’ fees and costs to Class Counsel, and a service award to each of the Class Representatives. Additionally, Defendant agrees that it will provide notice to individuals in the United States who enroll at The University of Phoenix on the website (www.phoenix.edu) that the website uses cookies and similar tools via a banner and through Defendant’s privacy policy.
