Individuals who accessed GameSpot’s website or any of its subdomains while in California between Jan. 5, 2023, and Dec. 16, 2025, may be eligible to claim a cash payment from a class action settlement.
Fandom Inc. agreed to pay $1.2 million to resolve a class action lawsuit alleging it installed and used three online trackers—the GumGum Tracker, Audiencerate Tracker and TripleLift Tracker—on visitors’ browsers without their consent. The plaintiffs claimed this violated the California Invasion of Privacy Act.
The settlement class includes all individuals who meet the following criteria:
Each class member is allowed to submit only one claim regardless of how many times they accessed the website during the class period.
The total settlement fund is $1.2 million. After deductions for attorneys’ fees, administration costs and service awards, each class member who files a valid claim will receive an equal share of the net settlement fund. The exact amount each claimant receives will depend on the number of valid claims submitted but will not exceed $5,000.
Class members can submit the online claim form or download, print, complete and mail the PDF claim form to the settlement administrator. The claim deadline is April 16, 2026.

The settlement administrator will issue payments to approved claimants approximately 100 days after the court resolves any appeals and grants final approval to the settlement.
The class action lawsuit alleged Fandom Inc. installed and used three third-party trackers on GameSpot website visitors’ browsers without their consent in violation of Section 638.51(a) of the California Invasion of Privacy Act.
Fandom Inc. denies any wrongdoing or liability. Both sides agreed to settle to avoid the uncertainty and expense of ongoing litigation and to provide compensation to affected users sooner.
