Facebook has agreed to settle a class action lawsuit that alleged the social media giant improperly obtained and collected data from users who visited non-Facebook websites displaying the Facebook “Like” button.

If you were a Facebook user between April 22, 2010 and September 26, 2011 and you visited external websites displaying the Facebook “Like” button, you may be able to file a claim with the settlement.

Each person who submits a valid claim will receive an equal share of the $90 million settlement fund, less expenses.

Ultimately, the amount distributed to claimants will depend on a number of factors, including how many people submit claims and what it costs to administer the settlement.
