What Is the Life360 Lawsuit About?

Life360 markets itself as a family safety app. Parents download it, track their kids, monitor driving, and share locations in a family circle. Over 45 million Americans use it. What many of those users did not know — and what investigators, plaintiffs, and the federal government have since documented — is that for years, Life360 was also selling that same location data to outside companies for profit.

In December 2021, investigative outlet The Markup revealed that Life360 was one of the largest sources of precise location data in the industry, selling near-real-time location information on its users to approximately a dozen data brokers. In 2020 alone, location data sales generated $16 million for Life360 — nearly 20% of its annual revenue that year. Those brokers then sold the data to insurance companies, retailers, marketing firms, and anyone else willing to pay for it. Users had no idea their family safety app was functioning as a commercial surveillance tool.

The legal consequences have come from three directions at once: private class action lawsuits, federal regulatory enforcement, and state attorney general action. Each targets a different piece of the problem.

Are You Part of the Life360 Class Action Lawsuit?

This is not one case — it is four separate legal tracks. Here is how to know which one, if any, involves you.

You may be affected if you:

• Used the Life360 mobile app at any point since 2018, particularly if you had location sharing or driving features enabled — your data may have been collected and shared with Arity (an Allstate subsidiary) or other data brokers
• Used Life360 and later noticed unexplained increases in your car insurance premiums — the Texas Attorney General’s 2025 lawsuit alleges driving data collected through Life360 was used to build insurance risk profiles
• Had your email, phone number, or name exposed in the March 2024 data breach that affected 442,519 Life360 accounts — check HaveIBeenPwned.com to see if your email appears in that breach
• Were tracked without your consent using a Tile Bluetooth tracker — Tile is owned by Life360 and is the subject of a separate stalking-related class action
• Received a notice from Life360 about the 2024 data breach

You are likely NOT directly affected if you:

• Never created a Life360 or Tile account
• Used Life360 only briefly before the company announced it was scaling back data broker sales in January 2022
• Live outside the United States, where different privacy laws apply

If you are unsure about your exposure, visit HaveIBeenPwned.com, search your email address, and look for Life360 or Tile in the results. You can also contact one of the law firms currently investigating claims — initial consultations are free.

What Are Life360 Plaintiffs Seeking in This Lawsuit?

Each legal track is pursuing different relief, and it is important to understand what each one can and cannot deliver for affected users.

Track 1 — The Original Data Sales Class Action (Closed)

The first major case, E.S. et al. v. Life360, Inc., Case No. 3:23-cv-00168, was filed in January 2023 in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. It alleged that Life360 violated state and federal consumer laws by selling users’ precise location data — including children’s data — to data brokers without consent. In November 2023, plaintiffs voluntarily dismissed the case with prejudice. This case is closed and produced no compensation fund. Life360 had by then publicly committed to stopping the sale of precise location data to most brokers.

Track 2 — The Tile Stalking Class Action (Active — Stayed Pending Arbitration)

Ireland-Gordy v. Tile, Inc., Life360, Inc., Amazon.com, Inc., Case No. 3:23-cv-04119 (N.D. Cal.), was filed in August 2023. Plaintiffs — including women who were stalked by abusers using Tile trackers — allege that Tile’s product design is negligently engineered to enable covert tracking. One plaintiff found a Tile hidden in her car that had been used to track her over 16,000 times. The lawsuit targets Tile’s “Anti-Theft Mode,” which makes a tracker invisible to scanning apps — a feature plaintiffs say abusers exploit to prevent victims from detecting the device. In August 2025, the U.S. District Court dismissed some claims as time-barred but kept the core negligence and privacy claims alive. The Ninth Circuit then sent the remaining claims to arbitration in March 2026. This case is active but stayed — no settlement, no compensation yet.

Track 3 — The FTC Enforcement Order (In Effect)

In January 2025, the Federal Trade Commission took formal enforcement action against Life360, ordering the company to stop selling sensitive location data collected from its users. The FTC’s order was part of a broader agency campaign targeting the location data industry — the same campaign that also caught InMarket, X-Mode, Gravy Analytics, and Mobilewalla. The FTC found that Life360’s data practices posed real harm to consumers by enabling third parties to track users’ visits to sensitive locations. The FTC order does not create a compensation fund. It is a regulatory requirement that changes Life360’s business practices going forward, and it may strengthen future private litigation by establishing that a federal agency found the conduct harmful.

Track 4 — The Texas AG Lawsuit Against Allstate/Arity (Active)

In January 2025, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed the first enforcement action under the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act (TDPSA) — a lawsuit against Allstate and its subsidiary Arity. The complaint alleges that Arity embedded a software development kit (SDK) inside apps including Life360, GasBuddy, and others to silently harvest driving behavior data — speed, braking, acceleration, phone use — from over 45 million Americans without their knowledge or consent. That data was used to build what Arity called the “world’s largest driving behavior database” and was sold to insurers, which plaintiffs say raised premiums for affected users. Life360 is not a direct defendant in this case, but it is explicitly named as one of the apps through which data was collected. This case is active and ongoing — no resolution has been reported.

For how a similar location-data selling scheme against a major automaker resolved, see our coverage of the GM OnStar California data privacy settlement, where GM agreed to pay $12.75 million and stop selling driving data after regulators found it violated the California Consumer Privacy Act.

What Should You Do If You Were Affected by Life360?

There is no claim form to file right now. But that does not mean you have no options. Here is what you can do today.

Check your data exposure. Go to HaveIBeenPwned.com and search your email address. If “Life360” or “Tile” appears in the results, your personal information — including your name, phone number, and email — was part of the 2024 data breach. Consider placing a free credit freeze with Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion to reduce your risk of identity theft.

Review your insurance history. If you used Life360 with location or driving features enabled and noticed unexplained car insurance premium increases between 2022 and 2025, document those changes. Pull your premium history and note the dates and amounts. This is the primary harm alleged in the Arity-related litigation, and law firms are actively looking for affected users.

Contact a law firm for a free consultation. Individual arbitration claims against Life360 are currently being pursued right now. Firms including Labaton Keller Sucharow, Keller Rohrback L.L.P., and Janove PLLC are investigating claims related to the Arity data sharing and are accepting inquiries from Life360 users. Initial consultations cost nothing. You pay only if they recover compensation for you.

Save your records. Screenshot your Life360 account settings, app permission history, and any privacy notices you received. Download your app store usage history showing when you installed and used the app. If you were tracked by a Tile device without consent, document everything — screenshots, photos, dates, and any communications with the person who placed it.

Monitor the case for updates. The Tile stalking case is in arbitration and the Texas AG case is ongoing. Both could produce settlements or rulings that create compensation opportunities for affected users. Visit CourtListener.com and search Ireland-Gordy v. Tile or the Texas Attorney General website for case developments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a class action lawsuit against Life360?

 Yes — multiple. The most active is Ireland-Gordy v. Tile, Life360, Amazon, Case No. 3:23-cv-04119, currently in arbitration proceedings in the Northern District of California. The Texas Attorney General’s lawsuit against Allstate and Arity also explicitly names Life360 as an app through which driving data was collected from over 45 million Americans. A separate data sales class action was dismissed in 2023 without a settlement.

Do I need to do anything right now to be included? 

Most potential class members do not need to act yet — no settlement exists and no claim form is open. However, if you want to pursue an individual arbitration claim related to insurance rate hikes or data sharing, you should contact one of the active law firms now. Statutes of limitations vary by state and can cut off your right to file if you wait too long.

When will a settlement be reached in the Life360 case? 

TBD — no settlement timeline has been publicly announced for any of the active Life360 legal tracks. The Tile stalking case is in arbitration. The Texas AG case against Allstate and Arity is ongoing with no resolution. Privacy class actions of this complexity typically take two to five years from filing to settlement or trial verdict.

Can I file my own lawsuit against Life360 instead of joining a class action?

Yes, but Life360’s terms of service contain a mandatory arbitration clause, which means most individual claims would need to go through arbitration rather than court. Law firms like Labaton Keller Sucharow and Keller Rohrback are currently pursuing individual arbitration claims on behalf of affected users and are accepting new inquiries. Contact a data privacy attorney for a free consultation before your state’s statute of limitations runs.

How will I know if the Life360 lawsuit settles?

 If a class action settlement is reached, the settlement administrator will mail notices to known class members and publish a settlement website. You can also monitor CourtListener (courtlistener.com) for filings in Ireland-Gordy v. Tile, Life360, Amazon, No. 3:23-cv-04119, and watch the AllAboutLawyer.com Life360 case page for updates. AllAboutLawyer.com will update this article when any settlement is announced.

Did Life360 stop selling my location data?

 Life360 publicly announced in January 2022 that it was stopping the sale of precise location data to most data brokers and limiting remaining data partnerships. The company retained an arrangement with Arity and Placer.ai. The FTC’s January 2025 enforcement order further restricted Life360’s ability to sell sensitive location data. However, the Texas AG lawsuit and private litigation allege the Arity driving data relationship continued to cause harm to users through insurance rate impacts even after 2022.

What happened in the 2024 Life360 data breach? 

In March 2024, a hacker exploited a vulnerability in Life360’s login API that allowed mass queries of user data. By July 2024, a database containing names, phone numbers, and email addresses for 442,519 Life360 users was posted publicly online. Life360 confirmed the breach after being contacted by journalists. No financial credentials or passwords were exposed, but the data is detailed enough to enable targeted phishing. Check HaveIBeenPwned.com to see if your email was included.
