This website is to tell you about the settlement of a class action lawsuit, IN RE: SEQUOIA BENEFITS AND INSURANCE DATA BREACH LITIGATION brought on behalf of people whose personal information was stored on a cloud storage system that may have been accessed by an unauthorized third party between September 22 and October 6, 2022.  

Beginning in late 2022, a series of class action lawsuits were filed against Sequoia Benefits & Insurance Services, LLC and Sequoia One PEO, LLC (collectively, “Sequoia”) on behalf of people whose personal information was stored on a cloud storage system that may have been accessed by an unauthorized third party between September 22 and October 6, 2022. The lawsuits claim that Sequoia failed to employ reasonable security to protect personal information and, as a result, these individuals’ data had been compromised.

Sequoia denies that it did anything wrong.

In 2025, the parties agreed to settle, which means they have reached an agreement to resolve the lawsuit. Both sides want to avoid the risk and expense of further litigation. 

The settlement is on behalf of the individuals who brought the case and all members of the settlement class, which includes individuals whose personal information may have been accessed by an unauthorized third party. The Court has not decided this case in favor of either side.
