PGA TOUR may be violating the privacy rights of its users by tracking them and disclosing their personally identifiable information and information about the videos they watched to third parties without their written consent. If you have an account on PGATOUR.COM, and if you watched videos and videoclips on the PGATOUR.COM website, you may qualify for a claim under video privacy laws of up to $2,500. The claim alleges that PGATOUR.COM users who watched prerecorded videos under the Watch & Listen tab on the PGATOUR.COM website such as interviews, highlights, extended highlights, player highlights, PGA TOUR – The CUT, Shots of the Week, Round Recaps, Shot of the Day, Best Of, Features, Rocket Drives, and Golfbet roundtable videos had their video watching history shared with Facebook without written consent.
This is a case about data privacy.
We allege that PGA TOUR is violating the privacy rights of its users that watch PGATOUR.COM videos by disclosing its users’ personally identifiable information, including the videos they watch, to third parties without obtaining separate consent from users. We allege that this combination of information can be used to identify individual subscribers and their entire viewing history. We are representing clients in individual arbitration claims against PGA TOUR for violating the Video Privacy Protection Act, which awards damages of up to $2,500 per violation, as well as additional state consumer protection and privacy laws.
