Last verified September 19, 2026Source: courtlistener-litigationHow ClaimWatch verifies cases

This case was recently filed and is being litigated — the claims below are allegations, not proven facts, and there is no settlement, claim form, or payout yet. Watch the case (right) and we'll email you when it moves, including if it settles and a claim process opens.

What happened

This proposed class action against Betterment, LLC alleges contract and consumer-related claims, apparently concerning a data breach or privacy violation affecting users of the financial services platform. The case was filed in federal court in New York and asserts claims under contract law, suggesting potential harm to ordinary account holders.

Do you qualify?

No settlement exists yet, so there is nothing to file and no class definition to check. If the case settles, the settlement will define exactly who qualifies — watch this case and we'll let you know.

How to file

There is no claim to file yet. If this case reaches a settlement, a claim process will open — usually with an official settlement website and a filing deadline.

Common questions

Can I file a claim in the Daley v. Betterment Data Breach Class Action case?
No. This case has been filed and is still being litigated — there is no settlement, no claim form, and no payout. Many class actions are dismissed or never certified, so a case being filed does not mean anyone will be paid. If it settles and a claim process opens, that will be announced by a court-appointed settlement administrator.
Where is the Daley v. Betterment Data Breach Class Action case being heard?
The case is before the District Court, S.D. New York, case number 1:26-cv-01058. Everything alleged in the complaint is an allegation, not a proven fact.
