Planned Parenthood has been hit with a
\nlawsuit for allegedly transmitting website visitors’ sensitive health data to outside companies including Google, via analytics tools.<\/p>\n

“Americans expect privacy when it comes
\nto their reproductive health information,” four individuals who visited Planned Parenthood’s website allege in a class-action complaint brought late last week in federal court in New York.<\/p>\n

“That expectation is especially strong where disclosure could reveal a person\u2019s sexual preferences, sexual orientation, or pregnancy status — and it has only intensified since
\nthe U.S. Supreme Court ended the constitutional right to abortion,” the plaintiffs add in their complaint.<\/p>\n

The plaintiffs, identified in court papers only by their initials, allege that that
\nPlanned Parenthood’s website automatically transmits a host of information about users who attempt to book appointments online — including the services patients searched for, their ZIP codes and on a
\npage regarding abortion, a patient’s age and first day of their last menstrual period.<\/p>\n

The complaint also alleges that the website’s “consent banner” — which asks consumers to
\neither accept or reject cookies — is misleading.<\/p>\n

According to the complaint, people who attempted to reject tracking were “subjected to precisely the same conduct” as users who accepted
\ncookies.<\/p>\n

The complaint includes claims that Planned Parenthood violates the federal wiretap law and a New York consumer-protection law.<\/p>\n

\nParenthood has not yet responded to MediaPost’s request for comment.<\/p>\n
