A Settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit against ketamine therapy provider Joyous, PBC (“Joyous”). The class action lawsuit involves whether Joyous disclosed its customers’ confidential information to third parties, which is alleged to violate California privacy law.
While Joyous believes that its practices were in compliance with California law, Joyous chose to settle this case, without admitting liability, to focus time, effort and resources on continuing to provide valued treatment services to its patients, and not on additional legal fees and the uncertainty of litigation.
You are included if you between October 5, 2023 through January 2, 2025 reported to Defendant Joyous PBC that you: (1) located Defendant Joyous PBC by a method other than a web advertisement; and (2) booked an appointment to use the services provided by Defendant Joyous PBC, completed a screening questionnaire related to the booking process and subsequently received on or more web-directed advertisements relating to ketamine treatments.
Those included in the Settlement will be eligible to receive a pro rata (meaning equal) portion of the Settlement Fund, which Class Counsel anticipates to be approximately $37.00.
Read the Notice carefully. Your legal rights are affected whether you act, or don’t act.
