Oakland data breach settlement

Oakland settled a data breach claim. The claim window closed on May 6, 2025, so this one can no longer be claimed — but new settlements open all the time, and some are paying out right now. The free check tells you in seconds whether your email is in a breach that still pays.

Who was covered

Individuals whose personal information was stored, possessed or controlled by the city of Oakland and who were notified of a data breach in March 2023.

Where to claim

The administrator’s site is OaklandDataBreachSettlement.com. The window is closed, so it is there for the record, not to file.

Being in the breach is not the same as being in the class. Class membership usually turns on having received the company’s own notice letter, and only the settlement administrator can confirm it. We are not lawyers, we take no fee from any claim, and we never file on anyone’s behalf.

Check your own exposure

Free, no account, and we do not store your address. If a company that leaked your data ends up paying, that is how you find out in time.
