European Wax Center agrees to $5M class settlement. Do you qualify?
European Wax Center will pay $5 million to resolve a class-action lawsuit over alleged data tracking.Summary
European Wax Center has agreed to a multimillion-dollar settlement to resolve a class-action lawsuit alleging the company used tracking technologies to collect consumers' information without consent. The settlement website states that the company allegedly collected users' data via "pixels, cookies, code, and/or tracking or analytics tools" on its website and shared that information with third parties. Customers who visited www.WaxCenter.com, including those who booked an appointment online between June 30, 2023, and April 2, 2026, are eligible to file a settlement claim. European Wax Center is set to pay about $5 million in settlement payments to affected customers, but the company "denies that it violated any law." Instead, the company agreed to the settlement to avoid costs and operational disruptions. All settlement forms must be submitted either online or by mail by June 30, 2026. Customers who submit a valid, timely claim form may receive up to $10 from the settlement. Payments will begin to be distributed once the court grants final approval to the settlement, which is scheduled for July 15.
