Who may qualify

Common questions

Who may qualify for this settlement?

Do I need proof to claim?

Proof requirement: No. The settlement administrator determines what documentation, if any, is required.

What is the current payment status?

Current payment status: Unknown. Payments are issued by the administrator after the court process concludes.

When will Google Web App Activity Location History Privacy Settlement pay out?

Current payment status: Unknown. Class-action payouts typically begin only after final approval and any appeals. See our payout timeline guide.

Where is the official Google Web App Activity Location History Privacy Settlement claim form?

The official claim form is hosted by the settlement administrator, Epiq (Notice Administrator); No settlement administrator appointed yet. Use the 'Open official claim form' button on this page — never pay a fee to file.

Do I need to file a claim or submit proof?

Not yet. No claim form currently exists. Once the appeal is resolved and a claims period opens, eligible class members will be automatically identified using Google account records—no proof submission is required.

When can I expect to receive my payout?

Not before late 2026 at the earliest. Google is appealing the $425.7 million verdict. Class members will be notified by email or mail once a final judgment is approved and a claims administrator is appointed. Actual payments depend on how quickly appeals are resolved.

Who qualifies for this settlement?

Anyone with a personal Google account who turned off 'Web & App Activity' settings between July 2016 and September 2024, used non-Google apps on iOS or other non-Android devices, and had that app activity still sent to Google without consent.

Can I opt out or exclude myself?

The deadline to exclude yourself was February 20, 2025, and that deadline has passed. You are now bound by the court's judgment unless the case is overturned on appeal.

Why haven't I seen the settlement administrator's website yet?

Because the case is still under appeal. No settlement has been finalized, and no claims administrator has been appointed. Once Google's appeals conclude, the court will approve settlement terms and appoint an administrator.
