Our Commitment to Privacy

At WingWoman, your privacy and empowerment are at the heart of what we do. We harness innovative technology and data insights to help you manage PMDD and gain a deeper understanding of your health. While our app empowers you with personalised tracking and actionable insights, we also recognise the immense responsibility that comes with handling your data.

Our commitment is twofold:

  • Empowerment Through Insight:
    We believe that technology offers a groundbreaking opportunity for PMDD management and support. WingWoman provides tools for self-insight and self-advocacy, helping you understand the nuances of your wellbeing through detailed, personalised data tracking.

  • Privacy and Security as Core Priorities:
    Your privacy is our utmost priority. We employ advanced security measures and adhere to the highest standards of data protection to ensure that your information is handled responsibly. We are committed to being transparent about how your data is processed and safeguarded.

We encourage you to read our complete Privacy Policy to get a full understanding of how we collect, process, and use your data. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to us at hello@getwingwoman.com.

2. What Data We Collect

To provide our services, we collect three main types of data:

  • Account Data: Your username, telephone number, and email address to set up and manage your account and send WingWoman notifications. 

  • Health Data: Information you choose to upload to the app, like period dates, symptoms, or other personal health details.

  • Usage Data: Information about how you interact with the app to improve our services.

3. How We Use Your Data

We process your data to:

  • Provide the core features of the WingWoman app, such as health tracking and insights.

  • Improve the app and create new features.

  • Respond to your questions and provide support.

  • Conduct de-identified research to advance understanding of PMDD, menstrual and reproductive health.

Advancing PMDD Research Studies

When you track your data in WingWoman, you unlock valuable insights that can deepen our collective understanding of PMDD, menstrual, and reproductive health. Women and people with cycles are underrepresented in health research, and we believe your data can help change that. By partnering with trusted research institutions, we aim to advance studies and pave the way for better healthcare and support for PMDD.

We take your privacy seriously. We only share data that is directly relevant to a research study, following strict protocols to protect your anonymity. Through a de-identification process, all personal details - such as your name and email address - are removed and replaced with a random ID, ensuring that your information cannot be traced back to you.

Additionally, we are committed to making our research findings publicly available through our platform, so that the insights gained benefit everyone and contribute to meaningful advances in PMDD care.
