Key facts
- Who may qualify You may qualify if ACEN mailed you a notice around July 2023 saying your personal information was involved in their data breach (which occurred on February 6, 2023). If you got that letter, you're in the class.
- Estimated payoutUp to $1,500.00 per Settlement Class Member
- Proof requiredYes
- What you needYou'll need to submit a Valid Claim Form (available at acensettlement.com) signed under penalty of perjury. For out-of-pocket expense reimbursement, include receipts, statements, or other reasonable documentation showing the costs were tied to the breach. For time spent, a written description of what you did is required instead of receipts.

What the form asks
- — Description of how lost time was spent (Your own records of time you spent dealing with the data breach fallout)
Documents you'll need
Watch out for
- The claim deadline was August 7, 2025 — if you're reading this after that date, you've likely missed the window to file
- Losses must be 'fairly traceable to the Data Incident' — unrelated expenses won't qualify
- Ordinary and extraordinary losses both require documentation; time spent is the only category where a written description alone is enough
- The exclusion deadline was July 8, 2025 — if you wanted to opt out and sue on your own, that window has closed
- Final approval hearing was scheduled for August 13, 2025 — the settlement isn't final until the court approves it
