Third-party mobile apps developed using the Amazon Ads Software Development Kit (SDK) may be unlawfully collecting and sending your personal private information to Amazon, which in turn sells that data for profit. Keller Rohrback is investigating allegations that Amazon provided app developers with its Amazon Ads SDK, which granted the company access to users' mobile phones when the app was downloaded. The SDK was used to collect extensive, timestamped geolocation data, revealing a wide range of sensitive information about users, including:

Home and work locations
Shopping habits
Religious affiliations
Sexual orientations
Health concerns

Thousands of apps may have been developed using the Amazon Ads SDK, including the following popular applications for Apple and Android devices, among many others:

Weather (The Weather Channel)
Speedtest by Ookla
Truecaller: Caller ID Blocker
Zedge Wallpapers & Ringtones
Rakuten Viber Messenger
My Talking Angela
My Talking Tom

Why are lawsuits being filed?
Consumers have the right to know how their personal data is being used and sold. Consumers did not consent to and were not made aware that Amazon was collecting and selling their sensitive personal data for profit.

How do I know if I qualify for a class action lawsuit?
If you’ve ever used mobile applications, you might qualify. Reach out to our experienced data privacy attorneys today.
