Third-party services we use

Your health data and HIPAA

Hormone Harmony is a consumer wellness application and is not a covered entity under HIPAA. We are not a medical provider and do not create a patient-provider relationship. All health information you enter is used solely to personalize your experience. We apply strong security standards regardless of formal HIPAA obligations because your health data deserves that protection.

Data security

All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Account passwords are hashed using bcrypt and never stored in plain text. We use row-level security in our database so each user can only access their own data. Access to production data is restricted to essential personnel only.

Data retention and deletion

Your data is retained as long as your account is active. To delete your account and all associated data, email privacy@hormoneharmony.app with the subject line "Delete my account." We will confirm deletion within 30 days. After deletion, data is purged from our systems within 90 days, and from backup systems within 180 days.

Children's privacy

Hormone Harmony is intended for users 18 years and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has created an account, contact us immediately at privacy@hormoneharmony.app.

Cookies and local storage

We use browser local storage to maintain your session and save preferences. We do not use third-party advertising cookies. We do not use tracking pixels. The only data stored locally is what is required for the app to function.

Your rights

Regardless of where you are located, you have the right to: access a copy of your data, correct inaccurate data, delete your data, export your data in a portable format, and withdraw consent for any processing. To exercise any of these rights, email privacy@hormoneharmony.app.

Changes to this policy

We will notify active users by email if we make material changes to this policy. Continued use of the app after notification constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
