If you were impacted by the 2019 LifeLabs cyberattack, you may be eligible to receive up to $150 in a $9.8 million settlement.

Around 8.6 million people had their information stolen by hackers in the cyberattack on LifeLabs' database of customers' personal health information.

A settlement was approved by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, and those who submit a valid claim before the deadline of April 6, 2024, could receive $50 to a maximum of $150.

If you're wondering how to submit your application, here's what you need to know.
