After Roe v. Wade ruling, Houston women are deleting period tracking apps, citing privacy concerns
where users can remove their name, email address and other identifiers from their profile. But some users feel it’s too little, too late.
Martinez is thankful her period tracker helped her realize she was pregnant so she could consider her options. She’s upset others may not be able to do the same if they’re too scared to use an app. Givens said her organization is imploring tech companies to take every step possible to protect user data. Companies should demand a warrant for the information instead of freely providing it to any prosecutor who requests it by email.

At the same time, it’s difficult to gauge what will happen as more abortion laws take effect. Knowing the date of someone’s last missed period could be of interest to law enforcement, or “bounty hunters” in Texas, she said. “It is absolutely true that your data is only as safe as the company chooses to make it,” Quintin said. “In a lot of cases, companies are driven more by a profit motive than a motive to keep their customers’ data safe.”
“I think everything has to be a cost-benefit analysis because at the end of the day, it's not a workable solution to say that more than 50 percent of the population should have to opt out of the digital economy and live off the grid,” Fowler said. “That's not a real policy answer.”
