Kueppers et al. v. Zumba Fitness, LLC
Summary
Plaintiffs allege Zumba transmitted URLs exposing purchasers’ names and video-course purchases to advertisers. The court certified a class and three subclasses, excluding NextRoll; TradeDesk subclass claims had already been abandoned. This was a certification ruling, not a final merits judgment.

Reported Holding
The court granted Rule 23(b)(3) certification of a nationwide class and Meta, Pinterest, and MNTN subclasses. ([law.justia.com](https://law.justia.com/cases/federal/district-courts/florida/flsdce/0%3A2024cv61983/677430/85/))
What the Court Decided
Rule 23 requirements were satisfied; individualized standing inquiries did not defeat predominance. NextRoll was excluded because named plaintiffs lacked evidence of disclosures to it. ([law.justia.com](https://law.justia.com/cases/federal/district-courts/florida/flsdce/0%3A2024cv61983/677430/85/))
