A federal court authorized this Settlement Website.
A settlement has been proposed with Continental Café Holdings, LLC (“Continental” or “Defendant”) in a class action lawsuit regarding a cybersecurity event impacting Continental, known as the “Data Incident.” The Settlement provides benefits as described in this notice. If you are a Settlement Class Member, there are benefits available to you from the proposed Settlement. The Settlement includes all individuals affected by the Data Incident, including those who received the November 12, 2024 notice of the Data Incident. To be a Settlement Class Member, you cannot be party to an arbitration agreement with Continental, implemented on March 14, 2019, and/or July 18, 2023.
Please read this website and the Notice carefully. They explain important rights you may have, including the possible receipt of cash and other Settlement benefits. If you are a member of the Settlement Class, your legal rights will be affected whether or not you act.
The Settlement provides payments and other benefits to people who submit valid claims for documented out-of-pocket losses, additional credit monitoring services, and/or an alternative cash payment. More specifically, the Settlement relief includes:
Credit Monitoring and Identity Theft Protection Services: Continental previously offered 12 months of credit monitoring services with its initial notice of the Data Incident. With this Settlement, you can Submit Claim for three additional years of free credit monitoring and identity theft services.
Compensation for Out-of-Pocket Losses: If you have incurred actual, unreimbursed losses as a result of the Data Incident, you can make a claim for reimbursement for up to $700.00. Examples of actual, unreimbursed losses include: (i) costs and expenses spent addressing identity theft or fraud; (ii) preventive costs including purchasing credit monitoring, placing security freezes on credit reports, or requesting copies of credit reports for review; and (iii) other documented losses that were not reimbursed. You must include documentation to support the fact that the out-of-pocket losses were the result of the Data Incident. Self-prepared documentation alone is not sufficient to support an Out-of-Pocket Losses claim.
Alternative Cash Payment: In lieu of submitting a claim for out-of-pocket losses, you may Submit a Claim for a cash payment of up to $50.00. Submitting a claim for an alternative cash payment does not prevent you from also submitting a claim for three additional years of credit monitoring and identity theft protection services.
