The $227,000 Bray International class action settlement received preliminary approval from the court on April 1, 2026. The settlement covers all United States residents whose personal information was potentially accessible in the data breach discovered by Bray International in April 2024, including all who received notice of the incident.

The court-approved website for the Bray International data breach settlement can be found at BrayInternationalDataIncident.com.

According to the website, Bray International settlement class members who file a valid, timely claim form can receive up to $3,000 for “extraordinary” losses incurred between April 13, 2024 and July 30, 2026 due to the data breach. This benefit covers losses related to identity theft or fraud likely caused by the incident.

Class members must submit proof, such as receipts, to receive an extraordinary-loss payment.

Additionally, class members can file a claim to receive up to $400 for “ordinary” losses incurred between April 13, 2024 and July 30, 2026 due to the breach. This benefit covers the costs of professional fees, credit repair services, freezing or unfreezing credit, credit monitoring services, replacement IDs, and miscellaneous expenses, such as postage and travel.

Class members must submit proof, such as receipts, to receive an ordinary-loss payment.

Class members who submit a claim for an ordinary-loss payment can also claim up to four hours of lost time spent responding to the Bray International data breach, at a rate of $20 per hour. This benefit is subject to the $400 ordinary-loss cap and covers time spent changing passwords, investigating suspicious account activity and researching the breach.

In addition to monetary benefits, settlement class members may file a claim to receive two years of CyEx Financial Shield Complete, which includes one-bureau credit monitoring and financial fraud insurance.

In lieu of an ordinary- or extraordinary-loss payment, class members can instead file a claim form to receive a $45 cash payment, with no proof required.
