Formula 1 has agreed to a $5.5 million class action settlement over allegations it illegally shared user viewing data without consent — a violation of the Video Privacy Protection Act (VPPA).

💡 What Happened?

The lawsuit claims that Formula 1 shared user data — specifically, information about what videos were watched — with third parties, without notifying or getting permission from users. While F1 denies wrongdoing, they’ve agreed to settle.

👥 Who's Eligible?

You can file a claim if all of the following are true:

• You had a Formula 1 account

💸 How Much Will You Get?
