Settlement Information

A settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit against Emanate Health Medical Center (“Emanate” or “Defendant”) relating to the alleged disclosure of personal information of Plaintiffs and members of the Settlement Class to third parties, like Facebook, as a result of Emanate’s use of website analytics tools, like the Meta Pixel, on its website (“Pixel Disclosure”). Plaintiffs allege that the information shared to third parties through the use of the analytics tools may have contained personal identifying information and/or protected health information of certain individuals. Plaintiffs claim that Defendant was responsible for the Pixel Disclosure and assert claims for violation of privacy rights. Defendant denies the claims and Plaintiffs’ allegations in the Lawsuit.
