• QUICK ANSWER

Why are California med spas being sued over website tracking?

Lawsuits under the California Invasion of Privacy Act target pixels, chat tools, session replay and other scripts that send visitor data to third parties, with up to $5,000 per violation. Risk is highest when tracking fires on booking or patient pages, or before consent. YellowHorns runs ads and follow-up with server-side tracking and keeps pixels off sensitive pages.

• RULES TO KNOW IN CALIFORNIA

What changes how you follow up here.

Plain-language notes, not legal advice. We build your follow-up to fit them and you confirm with your own counsel.

CALIFORNIA / CIPA
Website trackers are a lawsuit target
Claims target pixels, SDKs, chat widgets, session replay and site search tools that send visitor data to third parties.
What we do: We audit every script on your site and remove what you do not need.
SOURCE: LATHROP GPM; WIPFLI, 2025
CALIFORNIA / CIPA
Consent before tracking fires
In California, timing matters as much as disclosure. Tracking that fires before consent creates exposure.
What we do: Consent first, then server-side conversion tracking that sends only what ads need.
SOURCE: WIPFLI, 2025
HIPAA / TRACKING
Keep ad pixels off booking and patient pages
Tracking that fires on scheduling or portal pages can send health-related data to ad platforms.
What we do: Server-side tracking, no pixels on sensitive pages, and a BAA with every vendor that touches patient data.
