If you received notice of the class action, you may be eligible for a payment and credit monitoring from a class action settlement.
A settlement has been proposed in a class action lawsuit against Rockhurst High School (“Rockhurst”) for the potential compromise in or about May 2020 of personally identifiable information of current and/or former students, their parents/guardians, faculty, and/or staff of Rockhurst maintained by Blackbaud, Inc. (the “Data Incident”). The information involved in the Data Incident potentially included names and Social Security numbers.
If you received notice of the class action, you may be included in this Settlement as a “Settlement Class Member.”
The Settlement provides payments to people who submit valid claims for lost time, out-of-pocket expenses, charges that were incurred and plausibly arose from the Data Incident, and for other extraordinary unreimbursed monetary losses. In addition, one year of credit monitoring will be provided to any Settlement Class Member who elects in a valid claim form to receive it. Your legal rights are affected regardless of whether you do or do not act.
