The NBA Top Shot, Forbes, and Viki video-privacy settlements are no longer accepting claims. NBA payments were distributed in March 2026; the other official sites should be used for case-specific updates.
Are Any of These VPPA Claims Still Open?
No. The filing deadlines for all three settlements covered in this roundup passed in 2025. A consumer cannot create a late claim through OpenClassActions, and a website promising a new filing opportunity for one of these closed programs should be verified against the official administrator site.

The Forbes settlement claim deadline was November 4, 2025. The official document archive includes the final approval order, but it does not advertise a new or reopened claim window. The earlier version of this page linked to an outdated domain; the source link below now points to the current official settlement site.Viki Video Privacy Settlement
The Viki settlement claim deadline was September 22, 2025. The official FAQ remains the controlling source for eligibility and deadlines. The claim period is closed, and this page does not provide a substitute claim form.What Is the VPPA?
The Video Privacy Protection Act is a federal privacy law that limits disclosure of personally identifiable video-viewing information. Recent cases have tested how the law applies to websites, streaming services, pixels, cookies, and other tracking technology. A lawsuit or settlement involving the VPPA does not automatically make every visitor eligible; the court-approved class definition controls.Sources
