Recent California Invasion of Privacy Act Cases on Pen Registers and Trap-and-Trace Devices
Fisher Phillips

The California Invasion of Privacy Act (CIPA) continues to be a source of litigation for claims related to websites across the country.

Previously, CIPA cases focused more on claims related to chatbots, chat features, social media pixels, and ad-trackers on websites. Although these remain subjects in active CIPA litigation, recent cases rely on claims that third-party cookies and IP tracking beacons act as pen registers or trap-and-trace devices.

CIPA prohibits using these devices without a court order. This resource provides a short summary of these recent cases divided into two categories: those favorable to businesses, and those unfavorable for businesses.
