Online Threat Alerts (OTA) - Alerting you to scams and frauds.
Oracle America, Inc. has reached a $115 million class-action settlement to resolve a long-running data privacy lawsuit (Katz-Lacabe et al v. Oracle America, Inc.). The lawsuit alleged that Oracle's advertising division improperly tracked, compiled, and sold the personal online and offline data of hundreds of millions of people without their consent.
No. The deadline to file a valid claim was October 17, 2024, and it has long since passed. If you filed a claim back in 2024 and it was approved, you should have already received a claim-approval confirmation email from the settlement administrator. Approved claimants do not need to take any further action to receive their money.
Core Allegations & Non-Monetary Terms
The suit focused on Oracle Advertising tools like ID Graph and Data Marketplace, which plaintiffs argued built a "virtual panopticon" by recording real-time web browsing, electronic in-store purchases, and geolocation data. While Oracle denied all wrongdoing, the settlement dictates they must implement an audit program to monitor consumer privacy compliance and cease capturing text entered by users in online web forms.
