• Abstract: There is an abundance of digital sexual and reproductive health technologies that presents a concern regarding their potential sensitive data breaches. We analyzed 15 Internet of Things (IoT) devices with sexual and reproductive tracking services and found this ever-extending collection of data implicates many beyond the individual including partner, child, and family. Results suggest that digital sexual and reproductive health data privacy is both an individual and collective endeavor.
