  • A proposed Settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit known as Cline v. Inline Network Integration LLC, Civil Action No.: 2023LA000402 (“Lawsuit”), filed in Illinois Circuit Court of the 18th Judicial Circuit, County of DuPage.
  • This Lawsuit arises out of the potential unauthorized access to Inline’s systems, which was discovered by Inline on or about March 12, 2022 (the “Data Security Incident”), and allegations concerning certain files allegedly accessed during the Data Security Incident that may have contained Private Information obtained and maintained by Inline. Allegedly, that Private Information included for some Persons full names, addresses, and Social Security Numbers. Inline disagrees with Plaintiffs’ claims and denies any wrongdoing.

  • Settlement Class Members can enroll in credit monitoring and identity theft protection with $1 million in insurance. Settlement Class Members who did not enroll in credit monitoring previously offered by Inline will be offered 2 years of credit monitoring. Settlement Class Members who did enroll in credit monitoring previously offered by Inline will be offered an extension of one additional year of credit monitoring. This is subject to confirmation that Inline has the ability to identify those Persons who previously enrolled and offer this extension.
  • Inline has or will also provide security improvements for the Private Information it maintains. 
  • You are included in this Settlement as a Settlement Class Member if you are a person residing in the United States to whom Inline sent its notice of a Data Security Incident that Inline discovered on or about March 12, 2022.
