A fresh lawsuit proposal accuses JPMorgan Chase of unlawfully sharing private customer data with Facebook.
In a legal filing at the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, plaintiff Daniel Onn claims that JPMorgan has breached the California Invasion of Privacy Act on a significant scale.
The lawsuit alleges that JPMorgan embedded a Facebook tracking pixel on Chase.com, which collected and sent social security numbers, names, dates of birth, phone numbers, addresses, and confidential financial details from customers who completed credit card and home loan applications.
The complaint states, “The defendant collaborated with Facebook to intercept communications sent and received by the plaintiff and other members of the class, including communications containing sensitive financial data…
During all relevant periods, through its Business Tools, Facebook intentionally and without the consent of all parties involved in the communication, or in an unauthorized manner, accessed, attempted to access, and/or grasped the content or significance of electronic communications between the plaintiff, class members, and the defendant, while the communications were in transit within California.”
The lawsuit alleges that Chase.com includes the coding for at least ten separate Facebook cookies to transfer the information.
Onn is seeking statutory damages, punitive damages, and prejudgment interest on behalf of the class members, along with other forms of relief from the court.
JPMorgan has not yet responded to the accusations.
