Colorado women have rushed to delete period tracking apps after overturn of Roe v. Wade.

When Lisa Vallejos’ 13-year-old daughter and 15-year-old son woke up the morning of the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling overturning Roe v. Wade, she called them into the living room.“I sat them down and said here’s what just happened and here’s what I need from y’all to really make sure that I can keep you safe,” Vallejos said.

“We’ve talked about the internet is never private and we use private browsers like Duck, Duck, Go to provide an element of safety and protection,” Vallejos said of talking to her kids. “But the Roe v. Wade ruling really raised my alarms about that because where we’re heading right now as a country, I really wouldn’t be surprised if there was something like a department of ‘protecting the unborn’ that comes up whose entire job is to find people who are potentially seeking abortion care.

That’s what Englewood resident Shannon Steele has also been recommending to people. She has seen discussions about which apps are safer, including those based in Europe, and which ones promise to keep data safe. But for Steele, that’s not enough. Planned Parenthood has its own period tracking app, which allows users the option to be anonymous when submitting data, but Steele said she would even be cautious with that, knowing that even the right to privacy is being threatened.
