What happened
Plaintiffs Jason Cumor and Sydney Dunn filed this class action against European Wax Center, Inc. alleging that the company disclosed information about visitors to its website, www.waxcenter.com, to third parties via pixels, cookies, code, and tracking or analytics tools without permission. The complaint asserts claims under the federal Electronic Communications Privacy Act (18 U.S.C. § 2511, et seq.), the Florida Security of Communications Act (Fla. Stat. § 934.03, et seq.), the California Invasion of Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 631), and for invasion of privacy. The case is pending before the Honorable Melissa Polo in the Circuit Court for the 13th Judicial Circuit, Hillsborough County, Florida.
European Wax Center denies any wrongdoing and denies that it violated any law. The parties agreed to settle to avoid the cost, disruption to business operations, and uncertainty associated with continuing the litigation, and the Court has not decided who is right. Under the Settlement, European Wax Center will establish a Settlement Fund of up to $5 million to pay valid claims, notice and administration costs, attorneys' fees and expenses, and Service Awards to the Class Representatives.

Where the money is going
This is a Settlement Fund of up to $5 million. Notice and administration expenses, attorneys' fees and expenses, Service Awards to the Class Representatives, and Cash Payments to Settlement Class Members are all paid from this fund. If the total value of all approved Claims exceeds the funds available for distribution to Settlement Class Members, the Cash Payment will be reduced on a pro rata basis.
All amounts listed above are pending and subject to final court approval at the July 15, 2026 Final Approval Hearing. The Court may award less than the amounts requested. If the total value of all approved Claims exceeds the funds available for distribution to Settlement Class Members, the Cash Payment will be reduced on a pro rata basis, so actual payments may be less than $10.00 per claimant depending on claim volume.
