Themis VPPA Settlement

A Settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit claiming that Defendant, Themis Bar Review, LLC, disclosed its subscribers’ personally identifiable information (“PII”) to Facebook via the Facebook Tracking Pixel without consent in violation of the Video Privacy Protection Act (the “VPPA”). The VPPA defines PII to include information which identifies a person as having requested or obtained specific video materials or services from a video tape service provider. Defendant denies that it violated any law but has agreed to the Settlement to avoid the uncertainties and expenses associated with continuing the case.

You are included if you are a person in the United States who, from March 12, 2022, to and through August 22, 2024, had a Facebook account, a digital subscription to Themis Bar Review, and viewed videos on Themis’s website while your Facebook account was active.

Persons included in the Settlement will be eligible to receive a pro rata (meaning equal) portion of the Settlement Fund, which Class Counsel anticipates being approximately $263-$526.
