Crypto.com Privacy Case Dismissed, Plaintiffs Get Second Chance

In an order issued Oct. 6, 2026, U.S. District Judge Edward Chen granted the defendant’s motion to dismiss the plaintiffs’ First Amended Complaint (FAC), but granted the plaintiffs 30 days to amend their claims. Judge Chen rejected these arguments, emphasizing that Article III standing requires an actual, concrete injury resulting from the collection of sensitive personal information . Addressing the plaintiffs’ profiling claims, the court acknowledged that data disclosures enabling “cradle-to-grave” tracking can establish standing under Ninth Circuit precedent, such as In re Facebook, Inc. Internet Tracking Litigation.
