Plaintiffs in the class-action lawsuit claim that unintentional Siri sessions were recorded and sold to advertisers. While Apple strongly denied the claim, it's agreed to a $95 million settlement that you might be eligible for.

Apple has agreed to pay $95 million to settle a lawsuit that accused the company of turning its virtual assistant Siri into a snoop that eavesdropped on the users of iPhones and other trendy devices in a betrayal to its long-standing commitment to personal privacy.

Apple has affirmed its Siri privacy policies following a lawsuit settlement that revived rumors that the voice assistant was spying on users. "Apple has never used Siri data to build marketing profiles, never made it available for advertising, and never sold it to anyone for any purpose," said a statement published on Wednesday.

The tech giant, which has a reputation for prizing user privacy, denied that its voice assistant app collected information and used it to create marketing profiles.

Apple Inc., the tech giant headquartered in Cupertino, California, is under scrutiny following a $95 million settlement in a class action lawsuit accusing it of unauthorised recordings and data sharing through its Siri voice assistant.

Apple claims it doesn't record Siri interactions unless users voluntarily opt-in to improve the voice assistant.

The company said it has never sold data collected by Siri or used it for advertising purposes.
