Settlement Summary
HireVue uses an automated video interview platform that may analyze or store biometric identifiers like facial geometry and voice characteristics to help evaluate candidates. Under Illinois’ Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA), companies generally must follow strict rules before collecting such data, including providing specific written disclosures and obtaining written consent. This class action was filed because the lawsuit claimed HireVue collected biometric information from people physically located in Illinois between Jan. 27, 2017, and June 25, 2026 without those required disclosures or written consent. The settlement offers an estimated payout of $150 per eligible claimant, with the actual amount depending on how many valid claims are submitted and deductions for administration, attorneys’ fees, and service awards. By resolving allegations rather than continuing to litigate, HireVue agreed to pay $3.75 million and the case becomes significant as part of a wider wave of BIPA claims targeting “biometric-first” technology used in hiring, background screening, and remote assessment. Similar lawsuits have focused on whether companies properly disclosed and secured consent for biometric processing, and regulators and courts continue to shape how BIPA applies to automated tools, consent practices, and the handling of biometric identifiers in everyday employment workflows.
