Etsy is facing a lawsuit in California for allegedly allowing third-party companies to collect personal data from users through pixel trackers.
Pixel trackers are small bits of code embedded in websites that send information to outside companies without clear consent.
The plaintiff claims that Etsy's use of these trackers violates the California Invasion of Privacy Act.
The lawsuit seeks to stop Etsy from using the trackers, award damages to affected users, and could potentially become a class action case involving all California Etsy users.
