Kaiser Permanente Data Leak: Millions Exposed

Kaiser Permanente is beginning to distribute payments as part of a $46 million settlement addressing allegations of exposed member data. Lawsuits claim that tracking code used on Kaiser's websites and mobile applications from November 2017 to May 2024 transmitted confidential personal and health information to third-party companies, including Google and Meta.

The exposed data reportedly includes IP addresses, names, search terms, and medical details. Kaiser Permanente denies the claims of misuse and states no indication of data compromise exists. The health giant agreed to the settlement to conclude the litigation, which it deemed burdensome and uncertain.

Approximately 13 million current and former members in California, Colorado, Georgia, Hawaii, Maryland, Oregon, Virginia, Washington, and Washington D.C. are eligible to file claims. The deadline to submit a claim is March 12, 2026, with payments to commence after the final court hearing on May 7. This tracking code has since been removed, and security measures enhanced.
