The Venture Logistics class action settlement received preliminary court approval on May 15, 2025 and covers anyone who received a notice from Venture Logistics that their information may have been compromised during the May 2023 data breach.
The court-approved website for the Venture Logistics data breach settlement can be found at VentureLogisticsClassAction.com.
Venture settlement class members who submit a timely, valid claim form are eligible to receive at least three years of credit monitoring services, reimbursement for out-of-pocket losses and attested time, and a cash payment, the settlement website shares.
The credit monitoring services available to eligible claimants include:
- Daily credit monitoring from TransUnion, Equifax and Experian;
- Identity theft insurance with coverage of up to $1 million;
- Identity restoration services covering identity theft and identity fraud incidents; and
- Dashlane Password Manager password protection.
Class members who submit a valid claim for extraordinary out-of-pocket losses may receive up to $5,000 for documented identity fraud or theft resulting from the Venture Logistics data breach, the settlement site says. Documented ordinary out-of-pocket losses, meaning losses related to efforts meant to mitigate against data breach-related identity theft, may be compensated for up to $500, the website shares.
Class members may also submit a claim for reimbursement for up to five hours of time spent dealing with or mitigating the effects of the data breach, at a rate of $25 per hour. Claims for attested time must include descriptions of the actions taken during that time and their relation to the data breach, the class action settlement website specifies.
Class members will be limited to a maximum of $5,000 in total compensation for all out-of-pocket losses and attested time, the settlement website states.
Following the payment of legal fees, lead plaintiff awards, credit monitoring service costs and out-of-pocket loss and attested time costs, the remainder of the $932,800 settlement fund will be distributed to settlement class members in the form of cash payments on a pro-rata, or equal share, basis, the settlement site states. Class members do not need to file a claim form to receive this cash payment, the website relays.
To submit a claim form online, Venture Logistics class members can head to this page and log in with the unique class member ID found in their settlement notice.
Alternatively, a PDF of the claim form is available to print, fill out and mail back to the address listed on the first page of the document.
All Venture Logistics settlement claim forms must be submitted online or postmarked by October 1, 2025.
A hearing is set for September 19, 2025 to determine whether the class action settlement will receive final approval from the court. Compensation from the Venture Logistics settlement will begin to be distributed only after final approval has been granted and any appeals have been resolved.
The Venture Logistics data breach class action lawsuit claimed that Venture customers’ sensitive personal data was illegally accessed by cybercriminals in a data breach incident occurring in May 2023.
