Security Taken Seriously
At Comma, we believe your health information should be handled with the utmost care. This is why we commit to never sharing your health data with advertisers or third parties. In fact, our team has employed security protocols that go above and beyond industry standard to ensure your data is protected and will never be used in any way beyond what you agree to. Sara has been designed and developed with security at the forefront.
Active Security Protocols
For too long, periods have been an afterthought. We believe menstrual care is healthcare. That means we do period care differently--including how we handle your data. Sara follows the highest healthcare industry security protocols in line every step of the way. This includes:

Encryption that is intended to protect data from being changed, stolen, or compromised by not only scrambling it into unreadable ciphertext , but also locking it with a unique encryption key.
2
The use of hyper -protective security groups around our network and subnetworks.
3
A browser security feature called cross-origin resource sharing that allows a server to authorize cross-origin requests while still restricting others, meaning that no one can call Comma’s application program interfacing (API) except known applications.
4
A safety switch that allows you to be able to immediately erase all of your data at any time for any reason.
Your Data, Your Consent
Sara is the most secure way to track your cycle online. At Comma, your data is just that: yours. Here, you always have control over how we use your health data, or if we use it at all. We believe period data should be private, so we use standards from the healthcare field in our data management practices. We follow the highest industry security protocols, including data encryption, the use of security groups around our networks, a safety switch that allows you to immediately erase all your data at any time, and more.
We commit to never sharing your health data with advertisers or third parties. With your consent, we can share it with healthcare providers and medical testing facilities for more personalized care. Opting into research and integration can help demystify your body, but you—and only you—are given that capability (and you’re always welcome to change your mind).
Leading with Security and Privacy
Hospitals and healthcare systems spend lots of time and resources protecting data and keeping it private. Comma believes that period data should be handled with the same level of care as laboratory test results or clinical trial findings.
Historically, this hasn’t been the case for other period tracking technologies, but we think it should be. This is why we’ve elected to follow HIPAA-based best practices to keep your data as safe as possible. We are the only period technology to benchmark with HIPAA standards to form our protocols and practice around data.
Co-Creation and Innovation
What if your cycle tracker could help you predict how many tampons you need per month? What if it could help you plan a pregnancy, or understand why you skip cycles, or illuminate your increased risk for a disease?
We believe Sara can help you do all of these things, but we can’t do any of it without you. If you’re interested in piloting new functionalities and products, please join our catalyst program. Together, we can bring reproductive health into the 21st century.
