Who was covered
The class action settlement benefits all current and former employees and their family members as well as current and former contractors who received notice from PCLS that their personal information may have been affected by the data incident.
Where to claim
The administrator’s site is PierceCountyLibraryDataSettlement.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.
