Case overview
What this settlement is about
TCL Smart TVs come equipped with Automatic Content Recognition (ACR), technology that tracks what owners watch — whether through streaming apps, cable, or devices like gaming consoles and Blu-ray players plugged into the TV. If you bought a TCL Smart TV within the last three years, and the model was originally released in 2017 or later, you may be able to bring an individual arbitration claim alleging violations of state data-privacy and consumer-protection laws. Depending on where you live, that claim could seek statutory damages of $500 or more. Eligible states include Alaska, California, Colorado, the District of Columbia, Hawaii, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Montana, New Hampshire, New York, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, Utah, and Virginia.
