VANCOUVER - A British Columbia Supreme Court judge says a class-action lawsuit can move forward over alleged privacy breaches against a company that made an app to track users’ menstrual and fertility cycles. The ruling published online Friday says the action against Flo Health Inc. alleges the company shared users’ highly personal health information with third-parties, including Facebook, Google and other companies.

Result: “sorry we shared your personal data, here’s a check for 38 cents. “
Damn man, my gf pays for this app. That’s how we track her days. Corpos even know when we’re probably having sex now D:.

TL;DW: The Nissan privacy policy states stated that they can collect and store information about your sexual activity for some reason.
Note: the page seems to have been updated to remove that wording, but you can see it archived on the Way Back Machine from when the video was released.
Edit: spelling
Stop paying for something that could easily be done with a pencil and a regular paper calendar.
Wow, my girlfriend uses this. Time to get her a FOSS-grown solution. Fuck the corpos!
Seems like they didn’t set www to redirect to the main site. If you go to https://dripapp.org it works fine.
Come on, it is the 21st century.
Nobody should assume any other reason to create such an app than to harvest and sell personal medical data.
Unless:
I am glad I finally got my wife use this Foss alternative instated of some garbage that sends your data to a proprietary server.
Do you know how well it works? Maybe I could suggest it to my girlfriend if she would be interested.
Unless:
The existence of this app should be spread far and wide for every woman to use, versus the privacy invading ones that are out there.
