A settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit filed against the magazine publisher Bonnier Corporation (“Bonnier”) based upon Bonnier’s alleged disclosure of subscriber information to third-parties in violation of Michigan law.
You may be eligible to participate in the Settlement if you were a Michigan resident who received a subscription to a magazine published by Bonnier between July 28, 2010 and June 25, 2019, if your subscription was purchased directly from Bonnier.
If you are eligible and choose to participate in the Settlement, you can submit a claim form to seek a one-time monetary payment of approximately $43 to $86, based on class counsel’s estimate in view of historical claims rates for settlements of this type. If you are eligible to participate, but choose not to submit a claim form, you will automatically receive a voucher or purchase code for a free, one-year subscription to a Bonnier magazine.
YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS WILL BE AFFECTED WHETHER OR NOT YOU ACT. PLEASE READ THE NOTICE CAREFULLY.
