Who can file a claim for a data breach payout?

Class members are individuals who received a mailed notice from Mizuno USA around January 2025 stating the data breach discovered in November 2024 potentially compromised their personal information.

How much can class members get?

Class members have the following benefit options:

Ordinary losses and lost time: Class members can claim up to $475 in ordinary losses and lost time related to the data breach.

Ordinary losses may include bank or credit card fees, costs for credit reports, credit monitoring or identity theft insurance purchased as a result of the breach and postage for communication with financial institutions.
Class members may claim up to four hours of time spent dealing with the data breach at $15 per hour for a maximum of $60. Lost time is part of the $475 ordinary losses cap.

Extraordinary losses: Class members can claim up to $5,000 for documented, unreimbursed losses that occurred due to identity theft or fraud related to the data breach. This includes professional fees, unreimbursed bank or card fees, overdraft charges, late fees and interest on payday loans due to card cancellations. The class member must have incurred the losses between Aug. 21, 2024 and March 23, 2026, and insurance must not have reimbursed them.
Alternative cash payment: Class members who do not submit a claim for ordinary losses, lost time or extraordinary losses can submit a claim to receive a $50 alternative cash payment.
Credit monitoring: All class members can elect to receive 24 months of one-bureau credit monitoring, which includes least $1 million in fraud protection

Why did this class action settlement happen?

The class action lawsuit alleged Mizuno USA Inc. discovered a cybersecurity incident in November 2024 that compromised sensitive personal information. The plaintiffs claimed that Mizuno failed to adequately protect this information.

Mizuno USA denies the allegations but agreed to settle to avoid the expense and uncertainty of continued litigation.
