A recent proposed lawsuit targets JPMorgan Chase for allegedly unlawfully sharing sensitive personal data of its customers with Facebook.

Plaintiff Daniel Onn filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, claiming that JPMorgan has violated the California Invasion of Privacy Act on a large scale.

The lawsuit alleges that JPMorgan embedded a Facebook tracking pixel on Chase.com, which collected and sent social security numbers, names, dates of birth, phone numbers, addresses, and confidential financial details from customers who completed credit card and home loan applications.

The complaint states, “The defendant collaborated with Facebook to intercept communications containing sensitive financial information sent and received by the plaintiff and class members without their consent.”

According to the lawsuit, Chase.com includes the code for at least ten different Facebook cookies to transfer this information.

Onn is seeking statutory damages, punitive damages, and prejudgment interest on behalf of the class members.

JPMorgan has not responded to the accusations yet.
