A proposed Settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit known as Goins v. Brown Integrated Logistics, Inc., Case No. 25CV4659, (“Action”), filed in the Superior Court of DeKalb County, Georgia.
This Action against Brown Integrated Logistics, Inc. (“Defendant”) is based on an unauthorized access to Defendant’s computer network that occurred on or around November 13-15, 2023, and about which Defendant notified affected individuals on or about September 23, 2024 (the “Data Breach”). The claims asserted are based on allegations that files accessed or acquired during the Data Breach contained personally identifiable information about certain individuals, including name, address, date of birth, Social Security number, taxpayer identification number, financial account information, medical information, and health insurance information. Defendant disagrees with Plaintiffs’ claims and denies any wrongdoing.
Settlement Class Members can receive the following benefits from the Settlement: (1) two (2) years of free, triple-bureau Credit Monitoring Services and reimbursement for Attested Time (up to $100), Out-of-Pocket Costs (up to $750), and/or Financial Losses (up to $4,000); or (2) an Alternate Cash Payment of $75.
You are included in this Settlement as a Settlement Class Member if you are an individual to whom Defendant mailed written notification that their Personal Information was compromised in the Data Breach.
Your legal rights are affected regardless of whether you do or do not act. Read this Notice carefully.
