What happens after I submit my information?

Accepted Answer

You may be contacted by an intake specialist to discuss your experience in more detail.

Question 5

Can I get money from the $18 billion Meta settlement?

Accepted Answer

No. The August 2026 multistate settlement is paid to state governments over ten years to fund youth online safety and mental health programs, not to individuals. It also requires product changes for minors on Instagram and Facebook, including a combined two-hour daily limit, scrolling pauses, and nighttime access blocks. Individual personal injury claims are handled separately in the ongoing litigation.

What about the $725 million Facebook privacy settlement?

Accepted Answer

That was a separate data-privacy case related to Cambridge Analytica and it is closed. The claim deadline was August 25, 2023 and payments finished distributing by summer 2026. No new claims are accepted, and it is unrelated to social media harm claims.

Question 7

Is there a cost?

Accepted Answer

No. The initial evaluation is free and carries no obligation.
