Hi there,
Arizona just sued L'Oreal over hair relaxer cancer claims. That is a state taking on a beauty giant, and it is the kind of move that can change how these cases go. This week we also have news about a student privacy settlement moving forward. Both stories are about accountability, and both could matter to you or someone you know.
Arizona sues L'Oreal over hair relaxer cancer claims
Arizona has filed a lawsuit against L'Oreal over alleged cancer risks tied to chemical hair relaxers. The state action comes as thousands of similar hair relaxer lawsuits move through the courts. The suits claim prolonged use of these straighteners may be linked to uterine cancer, ovarian cancer, endometriosis, and uterine fibroids.
If you used chemical hair relaxers or straighteners for several years and were diagnosed with any of those conditions, you may be eligible to file a claim. We track these cases so you do not have to. Visit claimscout to check your options and see what steps come next.
PowerSchool Naviance Student Privacy Settlement Moves Forward
PowerSchool and Chicago Public Schools have agreed to settle a student data privacy lawsuit for $17 million, according to court records. The case involves Naviance, a college-planning portal used by many schools. The settlement is still being litigated, so it is not final yet. No one is guaranteed payment at this stage.
If your child used Naviance at a US public or private school, they may be eligible for a small payment. The payout band is micro, meaning the amount per person is likely modest. To stay informed, visit claimscout for updates on when and how to file a claim. We will share official steps as they become available.
If either of these stories sounds like your situation, checking is free and takes a minute. We will be back next week with more. Until then, take care of yourself and the people you love.
Until next week,
