Who was covered
Consumers who received a data breach notification letter from Purpose Financial informing them that their information may have been compromised in a data breach that occurred in February 2023, and whose names and Social Security numbers appeared in Purpose Financial’s impacted files.
Where to claim
The administrator’s site is PurposeFinancialSettlement.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.
