A settlement has been reached with Bayhealth Medical Center Inc., d/b/a Bayhealth (“Bayhealth” or “Defendant”) in a class action lawsuit. This lawsuit concerned Bayhealth’s use of third-party tracking technologies, called “tracking pixels,” on its web pages. The plaintiff claims that using tracking pixels allegedly violated certain privacy laws.
The lawsuit is called Doe et al. v. Bayhealth Medical Center Inc., d/b/a Bayhealth, Case No. N24C-09-002 FJJ. It is pending in the Superior Court of Georgetown County, Delaware (the “Litigation”). Bayhealth denies that it did anything wrong, and the Court has not decided who is right. The parties have agreed to settle the lawsuit (the “Settlement”) to avoid the costs and risks, disruptions, and uncertainties of continuing the Litigation.
If you received notice, Bayhealth's records have identified Class Members that are entitled to benefits under the Settlement.
Your rights are affected whether you act or don’t act.
