Your cycle. Your device. Nobody else’s business.
After the Dobbs decision, law enforcement agencies began subpoenaing period tracker data. Cara was built so there’s nothing to subpoena — because there’s no server, no account, and nowhere for your data to go but your phone.
Menstrual tracking apps promised privacy. Then Dobbs happened.
The apps millions of women trusted stored everything in the cloud. And cloud storage means subpoenas. It means breach risks. It means a database of your most intimate health data sitting on someone else’s server, waiting.
Women across America started deleting their period trackers. Not because they didn’t need them. Because they couldn’t trust them. That deletion was a signal. Cara is the answer.
There is no server.
Why Cara Exists
Tracking your cycle should feel like writing in a diary that only you can read. Cara is that diary — it runs entirely on your iPhone, computes everything locally, and stores nothing anywhere but your device.
Not to our servers. Not to Apple’s cloud. Not anywhere. There is no account. There is nothing to subpoena. And unlike cloud-based apps, there’s nothing to breach — because there’s no database of your intimate health data waiting to become the next headline.
You can’t hack data that doesn’t exist outside your phone.
Privacy-as-promise failed women. The apps said “we care about your data” while building servers to store it. Cara is the repair — privacy by architecture, not policy, not promise. There is simply no mechanism by which your data can leave your device. There is nothing to send.
The Technical Version (For People Who Want It)
- •On-device computation. Cycle predictions run entirely within the app’s sandboxed environment.
- •Local storage only. Data is stored exclusively in encrypted containers on your device.
- •No internet required. Every feature works fully offline.
- •No account. No registration. No identity tied to your health data.
The architecture is the privacy policy. We do not need a long one because there is nothing to govern. There is no server. There is nothing to send.
What Cara Tracks
Everything a period tracker should — and nothing leaves your device:
