Patients who booked an appointment online at www.aspendental.com between Feb. 20, 2022, and Jan. 1, 2025, may be eligible to claim a cash payment from a class action settlement.
Aspen Dental Management Inc. agreed to pay $18 million to settle a class action lawsuit alleging it disclosed users’ personal information to third parties, including Meta and Google, through tracking pixels and similar technologies on its website.
Who can file an Aspen Dental claim?
The class includes anyone who booked an appointment online directly through www.aspendental.com during specific periods. There are two groups of class members, each with different eligibility dates and compensation structures:
- Group 1 settlement class members: Booked an appointment on the website between Feb. 20, 2022, and June 1, 2023.
- Group 2 settlement class members: Booked an appointment on the website between June 2, 2023, and Jan. 1, 2025.
How much can class members get?
The amount class members may receive depends on which group they belong to and the total number of valid claims submitted.
- Group 1 settlement class members: There is approximately $2.7 million available for valid claims from this group. After deducting notice and administration costs, attorneys’ fees and service awards, the remaining funds will be distributed on a pro rata basis among all valid claimants in Group 1. The exact payment per person will depend on the total number of valid claims.
- Group 2 settlement class members: There is up to $16 million available for valid claims from this group. Each valid claim is eligible for up to $15. However, if the total number of valid claims exceeds the available funds, the payment per person will be reduced proportionally.
