I agree with the article and the public health bodies that period tracker apps should be secure and keep your data private. That's why I'm creating one which is unhackable and keeps your data on your phone.
Get in touch if you want to be an early user or if you want to be a supporter.
The world needs this app. We need this app.
Stay safe 💛 💚 💜

"Dr Stefanie Felsberger, lead author of the report, said: 'Menstrual cycle tracking apps are presented as empowering women and addressing the gender health gap.
'Yet the business model behind their services rests on commercial use, selling user data and insights to third parties for profit.'"

We go over the security features of the period tracker that make it unhackable: AES-256 encryption of the database, encryption of the app on the phone and if that's not enough: the data stays on your phone and your phone only.
If you have questions, get in touch.
Stay safe ❤️

There are many myths around menstruation which end up harming those who menstruate.
Please, if you, or someone you know, menstruates, read up on the facts and stick with science when it comes to reproductive healthcare. ❤️

"he had to bury his wife after he took her to a Texas hospital for a miscarriage when she was 11 weeks pregnant."
Not only did he loose his wife, now "he's doing the best he can as a single dad of two boys."
We must stand up to this suppression and fight for our healthcare rights (reproductive, women, LGBTQIA+)❤️

Two doctors in Indiana, USA, are fighting to keep post abortion information private:
“I’m concerned about my patients’ privacy and the release of my patients’ protected health information to the public for, as far as I can tell, no real good reason except to essentially make public citizens vigilantes,” Bernard said.
Stay safe. We are in this together ❤️

The rights to equal quality research benefiting anyone menstruating is being curtailed.

On this fine #InternationalWomensDay , the #UN reminds us all that there is more work to be done towards #equality
"It will take 286 years to close gender gaps in legal protection and remove discriminatory laws against women, 140 years for equal representation in positions of power and at least 40 years to achieve gender parity in national parliaments. These numbers are truly alarming and calls for the world’s urgent action."

Why Health #DataPrivacy Matters
"When individuals seek reproductive health care or #Gender_affirming_care , they leave behind a digital trail. Whether through search histories, email exchanges, travel itineraries, or data from #periodtracker apps, every click, every action, every step is tracked, with no consent. This kind of data has already been used to criminalize individuals"

From the news cycle:
"Influencer’s ‘menstruation day’ toilet set-up slammed"
I like the initiative 🙂
I also spend a lot of time on the bathroom when I have my period and having a "cozy" space makes all the difference sometimes. ❤️
