Facebook / AARP Class Action Settlement FAQs

Common questions about this class action settlement.

Who was covered?

People in the United States who requested or obtained video content on AARP.org from September 27, 2020 through the preliminary approval date, at a time when they had a Facebook account and were either an AARP member or a registered user of the site. All three conditions had to hold at once.

Why did the Facebook account matter?

The claim was brought under the Video Privacy Protection Act, which restricts a video provider from disclosing what its subscribers watch. Cases of this kind concern tracking code that reports viewing to an advertising platform using an identifier the platform can match, and without an account there is nothing to match.
