If you filed a claim in Facebook’s $725 million privacy settlement, you could get a payment within weeks, according to the settlement’s administrator.

Millions of consumers who used Facebook over a 15-year period were eligible to file a claim back in 2023, with the settlement stemming from multiple lawsuits filed against the social media platform by users who claimed the company improperly shared their information with third-party sources such as advertisers and data brokers.

The litigation was sparked by Facebook’s privacy scandal in 2018 with Cambridge Analytica, which scraped user data from the site as part of an effort to profile voters. Meta, the parent company of Facebook, has denied any liability or wrongdoing under the settlement.

Here’s what to know about the payments.
