UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT, NORTHERN DISTRICT OF OHIO
Case No. 1:22-cv-00835-DAP
If You Were Subject to the Parker-Hannifin Corporation
Data Incident and Previously Received a Notice Letter Notifying You of the Data
Incident, You Could be Eligible for a Payment from a Class Action Settlement
You may be eligible to receive a payment from a proposed $1,750,000 non-reversionary class action settlement (the “Settlement Fund”).
The class action lawsuit concerns the March 2022 Data Incident involving Parker-Hannifin Corporation (“Parker” or “Defendant”) in which it was determined that an unauthorized third party gained access to certain Parker files containing current and former employees’ sensitive personal information including names, Social Security numbers, dates of birth, driver’s license numbers, U.S. passport numbers, financial account information, online account usernames and passwords, health insurance plan member ID numbers, and health insurance dates of coverage. Parker denies any wrongdoing and denies that Parker has any liability but has agreed to settle the lawsuit on a classwide basis.
To be eligible to make a claim, you must have received a notice letter of the Parker Data Incident that occurred in March 2022.
Eligible claimants under the Settlement Agreement will be eligible to receive:
Reimbursement for the actual amount of unreimbursed out-of-pocket expenses up to $5,000, with supporting documentation of the monetary losses;
Compensation of up to $100 for time spent dealing with fraud, identity theft, or other alleged misuse of your personal information that is fairly traceable to the Data Incident;
Compensation for incidents of verified fraud of up to $5,000, with supporting documentation, including $250 per documented incident of identity fraud or fraudulent activity on an account;
Compensation of up to $100 for eligible California residents; and
$50 cash payment from the Settlement Fund that will be increased or decreased pro rata depending on the amount remaining in the Settlement Fund after allocation of the Settlement Fund for reimbursement of documented out-of-pocket expenses, payments for lost time, payments to certain California residents, payments for documented incidents of fraud, attorneys’ fees and expenses, Class Representative Service Awards, and Settlement Administration Costs.
