New Ruling on Punitive Damages and Attorney Fees in California Invasion of Privacy Act (CIPA) Case As Thompson Hine has previously reported, the recent surge of privacy claims under the California Invasion of Privacy Act (CIPA) related to using website cookies, pixels, and web beacons continues to impact a several sectors. It has been especially harmful to small businesses. On July 15, Judge Rolf Treu ruled on a preliminary motion in a CIPA lawsuit and concluded that the plaintiff could potentially recover punitive damages and attorney fees. Although this case does not address the merits of whether website tracking technologies are considered pen registers or trap and trace devices under CIPA, plaintiffs may rely on it to demand larger awards and settlements in their CIPA actions. Businesses that deploy these types of online tracking technologies should immediately reassess the legal terms governing the use of their websites and whether they contain favorable dispute resolution provisions, such as remedies available for claims arising from a consumer’s use of the website.
