Google Web App Activity Location History Privacy Settlement
Court case: Rodriguez et al v. Google LLC
Google was found to have collected location and activity data even after users turned off the relevant privacy settings, and a $425.7 million verdict was reached. There's no claim form open yet, so there's nothing to file right now — but check back once a deadline is announced.
Official eligibility wordingIndividuals with non-enterprise Google accounts who turned off 'Web & App Activity' or 'supplemental Web & App Activity' setting between July 1, 2016 and September 23, 2024, and whose activity on non-Google-branded apps was still transmitted to Google from non-Android mobile devices due to Firebase SDK and/or Google Mobile Ads SDK.
