I received a notice about this and checked it against classaction.org, so I think it's valid.

Visit www.KaiserPrivacySettlement.com to submit a claim.

Their website is god-awful slow to bring up a Next button when you enter your settlement number, to the point where I had tried it in two other browsers and called the phone number (no human available) before I went back and saw it had finally showed up.

The parties in the lawsuit John Doe, et al. v. Kaiser Foundation Health Plan, Inc., et al., Case No. 3:23-cv-02865-EMC (N.D. Cal.) (“Action”) have reached a proposed settlement of claims (“Settlement”) in a pending class action against Kaiser Foundation Health Plan, Inc. (“Defendant”) and certain related entities. If approved, the Settlement will resolve this Action wherein Plaintiffs allege that Defendant’s websites and mobile applications disclosed their confidential personal information due to third-party software code. Plaintiffs allege that this code was embedded across Defendant’s platforms, including the secure patient portal, and transmitted information to third parties when users navigated these platforms. Defendant firmly denies the allegations, denying any liability or wrongdoing, and denies that Plaintiffs are entitled to any relief arising from this Action. Defendant also maintains that Plaintiffs have not suffered any damages arising from this Action.

One would hope that a health care org would, at least, be more circumspect when it comes to sharing personally identifiable information.

One would be wrong.

outsourced some data siloing to a company which didn't keep its firewall software up to date.

&&&^%$#@#$%^&*

Yeah, they're offering one year free of privacy protection from a company called CyEx, which probably outsources their data siloing.

It's empty-headed rabbits all the way down.
