Common questions
- Is the AARP Video Privacy Protection Act Settlement notice real, or a scam?
- Claims are filed at aarpsettlement.com. Filing a class action claim is always free — no legitimate settlement charges you to claim, and no administrator will ask for payment, a gift card, or your full Social Security number by email or text. If a notice asks for any of those, it is not from the administrator. When in doubt, ignore the link you were sent and go to the official settlement website directly.
- When will payments from the AARP Video Privacy Protection Act Settlement be sent?
- Class action payouts typically take 12 to 24 months after the claim deadline, and longer if the settlement is appealed. The final approval hearing for this case is set for February 10, 2026; no payments can be issued before a settlement receives final approval.
