Facebook class-action privacy settlement: 2nd payments set to distribute

Facebook is distributing a second round of payments to users who previously received funds from a $725 million privacy settlement.

Summary

Facebook is distributing a second round of payments to users who previously received funds from a $725 million privacy settlement. The court approved the redistribution of uncashed payments from the first round, which occurred in September 2025. These second payments are only being sent to class members with approved claims who successfully cashed a first payment. The distribution will occur in June in batches over four weeks, with users receiving an email notice approximately 3-4 days before each payment. The settlement stems from lawsuits alleging Meta shared user data without permission with third parties like app developers and advertisers. Meta has denied any liability or wrongdoing.
