Restaurant Brands International Inc. (“RBI”) is one of the world’s largest quick service restaurant companies and owns several chains including Tim Hortons. The Tim Hortons mobile application was purported to be tracking some users’ geolocation at all hours of the day as users went about their regular activities. Some of those users may have unknowingly agreed to the location tracking in their mobile device’s settings.
Users of the Tim Hortons mobile application had reasonable expectations that the Defendants of the proposed action did not intrude on their private lives, did not track and record their movements or location data, and did not try to profile their personalities and analyze their behaviours. The Defendants violated these expectations.

As data breaches have become more common with the increasing reliance on technology, class actions are a powerful tool to protect privacy rights and obtain compensation when those rights are violated.
If you have downloaded the Tim Hortons mobile application and have concerns that your personal information may have been compromised, you may be able to secure compensation.
A class action is a lawsuit which provides a method for a large group of people with common claims to come together to advance one claim on behalf of the group. Class actions are more efficient and cost-effective and allow for groups of people with common claims to gain access to the legal system and seek justice on their behalves.
Class actions are typically handled on a contingency fee basis. This means that the class counsel are only paid if the class action is successful at trial or settled. In the event that it is successful, class counsel fees may be paid by the Defendants owners and operators or out of either the settlement or judgment proceeds, as approved by the court.
