Terms of use.

You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract to use the Site. The Site is offered only to individuals in jurisdictions where it is lawful to access consumer legal information. You are responsible for compliance with local laws that apply to you.

Class Action Newsletter publishes an independent directory of open consumer class action settlements, along with guides, tools, and email alerts. We summarize publicly available court notices and link to official claim administrators. We may add, change, or remove features at any time.

The Site includes optional tools such as Smart Scan (eligibility quiz), Claim Wallet (local claim tracking), community payout reports, Fast Alert sharing, and agent/MCP integrations. Some tools store data only in your browser; others require an email subscription as described in our Privacy Policy.

Nothing on the Site is legal advice, tax advice, or financial advice. Class Action Newsletter is not a law firm and does not provide legal representation. No attorney-client relationship is created by your use of the Site, subscription to our newsletter, or communication with our team.

Settlement eligibility, deadlines, proof requirements, and payout amounts are determined by courts, class counsel, and settlement administrators — not by us. You should read the official notice for any case before filing and consult a licensed attorney in your jurisdiction for legal questions about your rights.

We do not guarantee that any listing is complete, current, or accurate at the time you view it. We do not guarantee that you qualify for any settlement, that a claim you file will be approved, or that you will receive any payment. Payout estimates on the Site are illustrative only.

Missing a deadline, filing incorrectly, or relying on a summary instead of the official notice may cause you to lose your rights. You assume all risk associated with decisions you make based on information found here.

Every "File a claim" or similar outbound link on the Site is intended to point to the official settlement administrator or court-approved portal. When you leave https://classactionnewsletter.com, you are subject to that third party's terms, privacy policy, and filing requirements.

We do not file claims on your behalf, collect claim forms for administrators, or charge fees for access to official claim links. If a link appears broken or suspicious, report it to [email protected] before submitting personal information to a third party.

We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or acting on behalf of any defendant, plaintiff's counsel, settlement administrator, or government agency listed in the directory. Company names, logos, and trademarks belong to their respective owners and are used on the Site for identification and informational purposes only.

The Site and its original content — including text, design, graphics, data compilations, and software — are owned by Class Action Newsletter or its licensors and protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Site for personal, non-commercial purposes. Except as expressly permitted, you may not copy, reproduce, distribute, publicly display, create derivative works from, or exploit our content without prior written permission.

You agree not to:

• Scrape, crawl, harvest, or systematically download Site content or subscriber data for commercial use without a written data license from us.
• Mirror, frame, or republish substantial portions of the directory in a competing product.
• Use the Site to transmit malware, spam, or unlawful content; attempt unauthorized access to our systems; or interfere with Site operation.
• Misrepresent your affiliation with Class Action Newsletter, impersonate another person, or submit false community reports or tips.
• Use automated means (bots, scripts) to create accounts, vote in community features, or circumvent rate limits except via documented APIs we expressly authorize.
• Use the Site in any manner that violates applicable law or third-party rights.

Personal, non-commercial sharing of individual settlement pages with friends and family is encouraged. News organizations and researchers may quote brief excerpts with attribution and a link to the canonical page on classactionnewsletter.com.

By subscribing to our newsletter, you consent to receive recurring emails about settlements and Site updates at the address you provide. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email or through our unsubscribe page. Message frequency depends on your selected settings.

We may also send transactional messages related to your account or requests (for example, subscription confirmations). See our Privacy Policy for how we handle subscriber data.

Features such as Claim Wallet, community votes, Fast Alert, and investigation intakes may store information locally in your browser or display information you choose to enter. You are solely responsible for the accuracy of that information and for maintaining backups if needed.

Community payout reports are crowdsourced and unverified. They do not constitute proof of payment status and should not be relied on for financial or legal decisions.

The Site may offer configuration for AI agents and MCP-compatible tools. API keys, if provided, are personal credentials and must be kept confidential. You are responsible for actions taken by agents you connect using our tools. We may revoke API access for abuse or security reasons without notice.

The Site contains links to third-party websites, including official claim portals, court records, and sister properties in our network. We do not control and are not responsible for third-party content, availability, or practices. Your use of third-party services is at your own risk and subject to their terms.

THE SITE AND ALL CONTENT ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

We do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or free of viruses or other harmful components.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, CLASS ACTION NEWSLETTER AND ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AND AFFILIATES WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF (OR INABILITY TO USE) THE SITE — INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION MISSED DEADLINES, DENIED CLAIMS, INCORRECT ELIGIBILITY INFORMATION, OR RELIANCE ON COMMUNITY REPORTS — EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF THESE TERMS OR THE SITE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100) OR (B) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US, IF ANY, IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability; in those jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Class Action Newsletter and its officers, directors, employees, and contractors from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of your use of the Site, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any law or third-party right.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Subject to applicable law, you agree that the state and federal courts located in Delaware will have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising from these Terms or the Site, and you consent to personal jurisdiction in those courts.

Before filing a formal legal claim, you agree to contact us at [email protected] and attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute informally for at least thirty (30) days. Nothing in this section limits either party's right to seek injunctive relief for intellectual property misuse or unauthorized access.

We may modify these Terms at any time. The "Last updated" date reflects the latest revision. Material changes will be posted on this page. Your continued use of the Site after changes become effective constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not agree to the new Terms, you must stop using the Site.

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Site at any time, with or without notice, for conduct we believe violates these Terms or harms other users, us, or third parties. Upon termination, sections that by their nature should survive (including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and governing law) will survive.

• Entire agreement. These Terms and our Privacy Policy constitute the entire agreement between you and Class Action Newsletter regarding the Site.
• Severability. If any provision is held invalid, the remaining provisions remain in full force.
• No waiver. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of our right to do so later.
• Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our consent. We may assign our rights and obligations without restriction.
