DATA MANAGEMENT The data services facility offers

services: class member location; address standardization; data manipulation; database
management; data entry; and list merge and deduplication.
THIRD-PARTY NOTICE Third-party notice reaches class
members that are hard to identify and target by mailed or media notice. By contacting
a network of relevant organizations, A.B. Data mobilizes those organizations to
reach out to their members regarding a class action. Such third-party outreach programs
enhance the notice effort by locating class members who are not reachable by other
notice methods, significantly improving response rates.
