The coffee and doughnut chain says the deal would see eligible app users receive a free hot beverage and baked good
Tim Hortons says in court documents it would also permanently delete any geolocation information it may have collected between April 1, 2019 and Sept. 30, 2020, and direct third-party service providers to do the same.
In a report released last month, privacy commissioners said people who downloaded the Tim Hortons app had their movements tracked and recorded every few minutes — even when the app was not open on their phones. In a statement, Tim Hortons said it’s pleased to have reached a proposed settlement in the four class action lawsuits filed in Quebec, British Columbia and Ontario.
“We are confident that pending the Quebec court’s approval of the settlement, the courts in British Columbia and Ontario will recognize the settlement.”
