What Is the Barefoot Dreams Privacy Settlement About?
Did you buy a robe, blanket, or anything else from barefootdreams.com between
October 2023 and June 2026? You may be eligible for a flat $8.00 cash payment from
a class action settlement that alleges Barefoot Dreams, Inc. shared its online
customers' personal information with third parties through website tracking tools
without consent. The claim deadline is July 31, 2026.
The case is captioned Grubor, et al. v. Barefoot Dreams, Inc., Case No.
CACE26003507, and is pending in the Circuit Court of the Seventeenth Judicial
Circuit in and for Broward County, Florida, before Judge Michele Towbin Singer.
Named plaintiffs Abby Grubor and Juliette Blatt allege that Barefoot Dreams used
the Meta Pixel, Attentive Mobile, and other tracking, analytics, and advertising
technologies on its website that disclosed customers' personally identifiable
information to third parties without permission.
Barefoot Dreams denies all of the allegations and maintains that it did nothing
wrong. It agreed to the settlement to avoid the expense, burden, and uncertainty
of continued litigation. The Court has not decided in favor of either side, and the
settlement is not an admission of wrongdoing. The official Settlement Website is at
BarefootDreamsClassSettlement.com.
Who Qualifies for the Barefoot Dreams Settlement?
The Settlement Class is defined as all United States residents who purchased a
product from barefootdreams.com or any of Barefoot Dreams' associated URLs from
October 14, 2023 through June 1, 2026.
If you bought a Barefoot Dreams item online during that roughly 32-month window and
live in the U.S., you are within the class. There is no minimum purchase amount and
no requirement that you bought any particular product. The settlement covers
purchases made directly on the brand's own website, not items bought from
third-party retailers or department stores.
Excluded from the Settlement Class are the judge and magistrate presiding over the
case and their families; Barefoot Dreams, its parents, subsidiaries, and their
officers, directors, agents, attorneys, and employees; anyone who timely and
properly excludes themselves from the class; anyone who already released claims
relating to the action; and the legal representatives, successors, or assigns of
any excluded person.
What Did Barefoot Dreams Allegedly Do?
The lawsuit follows a pattern seen across a wave of website privacy cases targeting
online retailers that embed third-party tracking code on their checkout and
browsing pages.
The tracking tools. The complaint specifically names the Meta Platforms
(Facebook) tracking pixel and Attentive Mobile's technology, along with other
tracking, analytics, and advertising tools. These are snippets of code that load on
a website and transmit data about what a visitor does (pages viewed, items added to
a cart, information entered) back to the third party that supplies the code, often
for advertising and analytics.
The allegation. Plaintiffs claim that when customers shopped on
barefootdreams.com, these technologies disclosed their personally identifiable
information to third parties without consent. The complaint asserts violations of
the Florida Security of Communications Act (Fla. Stat. § 934.03), the federal
Electronic Communications Privacy Act (18 U.S.C. § 2511), the California Invasion of
Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 631–632), the California Comprehensive Computer Data
Access and Fraud Act (Cal. Penal Code § 502), and the California Constitution.
Barefoot Dreams denies each of these claims and maintains that it did nothing
wrong. The Court has not ruled that Barefoot Dreams violated any law. The parties
reached the settlement, dated April 10, 2026, to resolve the dispute without a
trial.
How Much Can You Get?
Each Settlement Class Member who submits a valid and timely Claim Form will receive
a flat $8.00 cash payment, subject to Court approval. Unlike a pro rata settlement,
the payment is a fixed amount rather than a share of a larger fund, so it does not
shrink based on how many people file.
Payments are made electronically by PayPal, Venmo, or Zelle. If you cannot receive
an electronic payment, you may elect to receive your payment by paper check. All
checks expire and become void 180 days after they are issued, so cash any check
promptly.
In addition to class member payments, Barefoot Dreams has agreed to pay the costs
of notice and settlement administration, Court-approved attorneys' fees and costs to
Class Counsel (who may seek up to one-third of the Settlement Fund), and service
awards of up to $5,000 each to Class Representatives Abby Grubor and Juliette Blatt.
The Court may award less than these amounts.
Do I Need Proof to File a Barefoot Dreams Claim?
You do not need receipts, order confirmations, or any purchase documentation. You
do, however, need the unique identifiers from your notice.
• Unique ID and PIN. To file online, you must enter the Unique ID and
PIN printed on the email notice you received about the settlement. These codes are
usually located in the top-left area of the email. They tie your claim to the
class list, so they function as proof of class membership.
• Can't find your notice? Check your spam or junk folder, and search
your inbox for "Barefoot Dreams" or the settlement name. If you believe you are a
class member but did not receive (or kept) the email notice, the official
Settlement Website explains how to verify your membership and request a Claim Form.
• Filing by mail. You may also download a paper Claim Form from the
settlement's documents page, complete and sign it, and mail it to the Settlement
Administrator. Mailed claims must be postmarked by the deadline.

you want to be excluded from the Grubor, et al. v. Barefoot Dreams, Inc.,
Case No. CACE26003507 settlement. Include your name, address, signature, the case
name and number, and a clear statement that you wish to be excluded. Your request
must be mailed to the Settlement Administrator and received by July 31, 2026. You
cannot opt out by phone or email. If you exclude yourself, you get no payment but
keep your right to sue Barefoot Dreams on your own.
Object. If you stay in the class, you can object to the settlement by filing
a written objection with the Court and mailing copies to Class Counsel and
Defendant's Counsel, all by July 31, 2026. Your objection must include your name,
the basis for your class membership, your reasons (with any supporting materials),
the contact information of any attorney assisting you, and your signature. See the
official notice for the full requirements.
Watch Out for Settlement Scams
Settlement-related scams tend to spike around well-known consumer brands. A few
common-sense rules:
• Use the official Settlement Website only:BarefootDreamsClassSettlement.com. Be
cautious of any email or text linking to a "Barefoot Dreams Settlement" page from a
different domain.
• Never pay a fee to receive your payment. Legitimate settlements never
require an activation fee, release fee, or payment to release your benefit.
• Guard your Unique ID and PIN. Only enter them on the official
Settlement Website. The administrator will not ask for your bank login, Social
Security number, or other sensitive account credentials to pay an $8 claim.
