Case overview
What is the Papa John’s International Inc. case about?
Three customers filed a proposed class action against Papa John's International Inc. on April 24, 2026, in a California federal court. The complaint alleges that even when users click through the website's cookie banner to opt out of non-essential cookies, Papa John's continues letting third-party companies, including Facebook, Google, and Amazon, plant tracking cookies on their devices anyway. According to the lawsuit, this violates California's Invasion of Privacy Act. The data allegedly swept up through these cookies includes browsing and visit history, website interactions, user input, demographic details, interests and preferences, shopping behavior, device information, referring URLs, session data, user identifiers, and geolocation. The plaintiffs argue this practice is misleading and robs consumers of the ability to make informed choices about their own privacy.
