YOU MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR CREDIT MONITORING AND/OR A CASH PAYMENT.

A proposed class action settlement has been reached in McHugh v. Equinox, Inc., Index No. 911677-24, and Carter v. Equinox, Inc., Index No. 901198-25, pending in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, Albany County.

This is not a solicitation from a lawyer. The Supreme Court of the State of New York, Albany County authorized notice of the proposed Settlement.

The Settlement relates to a Data Incident involving potential unauthorized access to and acquisition of Private Information from on or about April 29, 2024. Impacted Private Information may have included names, addresses, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, driver's license numbers, health insurance information, medical treatment or diagnosis information, medication-related information, financial information, provider name, and MRN/patient ID.

Equinox denies the claims alleged in the Litigation and denies that it did anything wrong. The Court has not decided in favor of Plaintiffs or Equinox. No court or other judicial entity has made any judgment or determination that Equinox did anything wrong. No Settlement Class Member Benefits will be provided unless the Court approves the Settlement and it becomes final.

WHO MAY BE INCLUDED
The Settlement Class includes all living individuals residing in the United States who were sent a notice by Equinox that their Private Information may have been impacted in the Data Incident. Certain persons and entities are excluded from the Settlement Class, as explained in the Long Notice.

Up to $5,000.00 for documented monetary losses related to the Data Incident;
