Privacy Policy
Effective Date of this Document: May 2, 2023
Document Last Updated: February 11, 2026
Submitting content on OpenClassActions.com or via the online forms hosted on this site in relation to a law firm or an attorney does not establish an attorney-client relationship between you and them. It is crucial to understand that hiring a lawyer is a significant decision and should not be solely based on advertisements.
At OpenClassActions.com, we help connect people with potential class action settlements and legal claims — but it's important to understand what we do and don't do.
This site shares information about lawsuits, settlements, and legal opportunities that may be available to you based on your situation. It's not legal advice, and visiting or filling out any forms on this site doesn't automatically mean you are agreeing to hire any lawyers that advertise or are linked to by OpenClassActions.com. OpenClassActions.com is not a law firm, and we do not provide legal advice. We simply help you find information about class action lawsuits and settlements that may be relevant to you.
If it looks like you qualify for a case, one of the law firms we work with may in some cases offer to represent you. But that only happens if both sides agree in writing.
We don't guarantee results. Every case is different, and just because other lawsuits have paid out doesn't mean yours will. If a law firm does take your case, the agreement is between you and the law firm, and OpenClassActions.com is not a party in any way to any agreements.
OpenClassActions.com (OCA) values its users' privacy. This Privacy Policy ("Policy") will help you understand how we collect
and use personal information from those who visit our website or make use of our online facilities and services, and what we
will and will not do with the information we collect. Our Policy has been designed and created to ensure those affiliated with
OpenClassActions.com of our commitment and realization of our obligation not only to meet, but to exceed, most existing
privacy standards.
We reserve the right to make changes to this Policy at any given time. If you want to make sure that you are up to date with
the latest changes, we advise you to frequently visit this page. If at any point in time OpenClassActions.com decides to make
use of any personally identifiable information on file, in a manner vastly different from that which was stated when this
information was initially collected, the user or users shall be promptly notified by email. Users at that time shall have the
option as to whether to permit the use of their information in this separate manner.
This Policy applies to OpenClassActions.com, and it governs any and all data collection and usage by us. Through the use of
openclassactions.com, you are therefore consenting to the data collection procedures expressed in this Policy.
Please note that this Policy does not govern the collection and use of information by companies that
OpenClassActions.com does not control, nor by individuals not employed or managed by us. If you visit a website that we
mention or link to, be sure to review its privacy policy before providing the site with information. It is highly recommended and
suggested that you review the privacy policies and statements of any website you choose to use or frequent to better
understand the way in which websites garner, make use of and share the information collected.
Specifically, this Policy will inform you of the following:
1. What personally identifiable information is collected from you through our website;
2. Why we collect personally identifiable information and the legal basis for such collection;
3. How we use the collected information and with whom it may be shared;
4. What choices are available to you regarding the use of your data; and

Please rest assured that this site will only collect personal information that you knowingly and willingly provide to us by way of
surveys, completed membership forms, and emails. It is the intent of this site to use personal information only for the purpose
for which it was requested, and any additional uses specifically provided for on this Policy.
