Rite Aid has reached a $6.8 million settlement resolving a data breach that exposed around 2.2 million people.

The settlement website isn't yet live, but victims of the data breach will be able to go to RiteAidDataSettlement.com to receive a payout of up to $10,000.

The settlement website should be live sometime after July 17, which is when a final approval hearing is scheduled to be held.
