Apple will compensate certain users of its Cloud service after the company agreed to resolve a class-action lawsuit for $14.8 million
According to a news site, the complaint was filed in reaction to Apple allegedly violating its cloud service terms and conditions by hosting its cloud service’s customer data on 3rd party servers. Apple rejected the claim or violation of trust but has opted to negotiate regardless. The length of time you’ve been a user determines whether you’re entitled to compensation.
The case, filed in August of 2019, also claimed that Apple breached the state of California’s Unfair Competition Law and False Advertising Law.
Now it seems that Apple has decided to pay out of court for $14.8 million “for violation of the iCloud Services that Apple offers to its subscribers.”
Anybody who subscribed for an iCloud membership from September 16, 2015, and January 31, 2016, and has a US mailing address linked with their iCloud account will be refunded. The only exception is if the email account you used to register for iCloud at the moment is no longer valid, in which case you will not get the notification verifying your status as a “class member.”
The amount of your refund will be determined by how much you were enrolled for throughout the above-mentioned period of time, and also the membership tier you possessed. The Williams v. Apple Inc. lawsuit site includes complete information on the class action, and also what to anticipate if you are a class member.
