Law/Patents - Law (general)
English term or phrase: class action
"Class action requires a number of individual plaintiffs joining together to bring compensation claim arising from the same event or similar circumstances"

Dies wird der "collective action" gegenübergestellt:
"Collective action is an action to obtain remedy by a person or a group in the name of the general public where an identified victim is not necessary"

Gruppenklage


Explanation:
Siehe EU-Seiten

Amazon.com, das große Online-Einzelhandelsunternehmen, ist Ziel einer Gruppenklage, in der die Kläger geltend machen, dass sie über die Erhebung personenbezogener Informationen über sie nicht unterrichtet wurden und hierzu nicht zugestimmt haben, als sie ein Softwareprogramm namens "Alexa", das Eigentum von Amazon ist, verwendeten.


2d 357, ging es beispielsweise um eine Gruppenklage, im Rahmen deren geltend gemacht wurde, dass die Beklagte "die von den Einlegern bei der Bank angelegten Gelder ausnutzte, indem sie vertrauliche Informationen über die Anleger und deren Konten weitergab", um es einer angeschlossenen Bank zu ermöglichen, offene Investmentfonds und sonstige Wertpapiere zu verkaufen.
