The Olympic Club Data Breach Settlement

All individuals who received written notice of The Olympic Club data breach, which occurred on or about June 17, 2022.

Claimants must provide documentation of losses, such as bank statements, credit card statements, or police reports, to receive compensation for ordinary or extraordinary losses.

The Olympic Club, a private athletic and social club in San Francisco, Calif., has agreed to settle a class action lawsuit over claims it failed to prevent a 2022 data breach. The breach, reportedly discovered on June 17, 2022, allegedly compromised the personal information of affected individuals.

Plaintiffs in the lawsuit argue that The Olympic Club was negligent in protecting sensitive data, breached implied contracts with its members, and violated California’s Unfair Business Practices Act. They further allege the company delayed notifying affected individuals until March 10, 2023, nearly eight months after discovering the breach.

While The Olympic Club denies any wrongdoing, it agreed to resolve the claims to avoid further litigation

Under the terms of the settlement, class members may be eligible to receive:

1. Reimbursement for Ordinary Losses:

   • Compensation for out-of-pocket expenses, such as bank fees or credit monitoring costs.
   • Up to four hours of lost time compensated at $22.50 per hour (maximum $500 per person).

2. Reimbursement for Extraordinary Losses:

   • Up to $5,500 per person for losses directly caused by the misuse of personal information.

3. Credit Monitoring:

   • Two years of one-bureau credit monitoring services.

Class members who do not opt out will automatically receive credit monitoring services but must submit a claim form to receive monetary benefits.
