PER CURIAM
Carol Mosca appeals the district court's order dismissing her civil action as frivolous and for failure to state a claim. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. As the district court has repeatedly explained to Mosca, her allegations do not satisfy the requirements for Article III standing, which is necessary to support the district court's jurisdiction over her action. See, e.g., Spokeo, Inc v. Robins, 578 U.S. 330, 338 (2016) (discussing standing requirements); Md. Shall Issue, Inc. v. Hogan, 971 F.3d 199, 212-13 (4th Cir. 2020) (same). Accordingly, we affirm the district court's judgment, as modified to reflect a dismissal without prejudice. See S. Walk at Broadlands Homeowner's Ass'n, Inc. v. OpenBand at Broadlands, LLC, 713 F.3d 175, 185 (4th Cir. 2013) ("A dismissal for lack of standing . . . must be one without prejudice, because a court that lacks jurisdiction has no power to adjudicate and dispose of a claim on the merits."). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
