What happened

This appears to be a proposed class action against Paycor, Inc. under the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act, apparently alleging that Paycor collected or used biometric information without proper consent in connection with payroll or HR services. The docket reflects a dispute over whether individual issues of consent predominate, and notes that summary judgment will address whether employer-obtained consents could discharge Paycor’s obligations under the Act.

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.
