A settlement (the “Settlement”) has been reached with Adena Health System (“Adena” or “Defendant”) in a class action lawsuit (the “Litigation”). The Litigation concerned Adena’s alleged use of third-party tracking technologies, called “tracking pixels,” on its web pages. The plaintiff claims that using tracking pixels violated certain privacy laws.
The Litigation is called Jarrell v. Adena Health System, Case No. 25CI000419. It is pending in the Court of Common Pleas for Ross County, Ohio. Adena denies that it did anything wrong, and the Court has not decided who is right. The parties have agreed to the Settlement to avoid the costs and risks, disruptions, and uncertainties of continuing the Litigation.
