Who Is Flo Health and Why Are They Being Sued for Data Privacy Violations?

Flo Health makes the Flo app, one of the most downloaded period and ovulation trackers in the world. Because Flo asks users to log intimate details — sex, symptoms, pregnancy status — it sits on a pile of data that advertisers want badly. That’s exactly the position plaintiffs say Flo exploited. The lawsuit claims Flo built Google’s and Flurry’s tracking code directly into the app, so every logged period or pregnancy entry could be routed to outside companies.

What Did Flo Do to App Users Between 2016 and 2019?

Plaintiffs say that between November 2016 and February 2019, Flo embedded software development kits from Flurry, Meta, and Google inside the app. Those kits allegedly let the companies see when a user logged menstrual or pregnancy information — turning a private health entry into an advertising data point. The suit argues this violated the California Invasion of Privacy Act, which bars intercepting someone’s communications without consent, and the California Confidentiality of Medical Information Act, which protects health records specifically.

This isn’t an isolated case. Health and wellness apps keep getting caught running the same playbook — <a href=”https://allaboutlawyer.com/mychart-epic-systems-lawsuit/”>other health platforms are facing similar pixel tracking settlements</a> right now, and mental health platform LifeStance recently agreed to <a href=”https://allaboutlawyer.com/lifestance-3027874-pixel-tracking-settlement/”>its own pixel tracking settlement</a> over nearly identical claims. If you’re a Flo user, that pattern matters — it’s the reason courts keep taking these cases seriously instead of dismissing them.

Flo, Google, and Flurry deny doing anything wrong. Flo settled mid-trial, while a separate jury did find co-defendant Meta liable under the California Invasion of Privacy Act on August 1, 2025 — but that verdict is a completely different pot of money. If you’re eligible for anything from the Meta verdict, you’ll be contacted separately. Don’t confuse it with this claim form.

That’s the part most people miss: filing this claim form does not touch your rights in the Meta case. You can — and should — do both if you qualify for both.

Who Qualifies for the Flo App Data Privacy Settlement?

Here’s exactly how to know if this case includes you.

  • Anyone who used the Flo app in the United States between November 1, 2016 and February 28, 2019, and entered menstruation or pregnancy information during that window
  • Californians who did the same while living in California qualify for the California Subclass, which receives a larger pro-rata share
  • People who already excluded themselves from the class by July 20, 2025 do not qualify for a payment
  • Judges, court staff, and Flo/Google/Flurry employees are excluded by definition

Flo App Users Outside California — Are You Still Covered?

Yes. This is a federally certified nationwide class, not a state-only settlement. If you used Flo anywhere in the U.S. during the class period, you’re covered by the nationwide fund. Living in California just adds a second, larger payment on top through the California Subclass.

How Much Can Flo App Settlement Class Members Get? Up to a Pro-Rata Share of $59,500,000

There’s no fixed per-person number here, and no reliable site can honestly give you one yet. The $59,500,000 fund gets split among everyone who files a valid claim, after attorneys’ fees, administration costs, and service awards come out. Attorneys are asking for up to one-third of the fund plus expenses — normal for a case this size, but worth knowing before you decide the payout is worth the five minutes it takes to file.

More filers means smaller individual checks. Fewer filers means bigger ones. At a hearing on the settlement, U.S. District Judge James Donato pushed back on the administrator’s own estimate that only about 6% of the roughly 12–13 million eligible people would actually file — calling it far from “a triumph.” That’s useful information for you: if the actual claims rate stays that low, the people who do file end up splitting a bigger share of the fund. Payments over $600 may show up on a 1099. Check with a tax professional if that applies to you.

How to File Your Flo App Settlement Claim — Step by Step

  1. Go to the official claim site: PeriodTrackerDataPrivacyLitigation.com
  2. Click “File a Claim” and go to the online claim form
  3. Enter your name, email, and confirm you used the Flo app during the class period
  4. Indicate if you lived in California during that window, to claim the subclass share
  5. Submit and save your confirmation number
  6. Watch your email — A.B. Data, the settlement administrator, will reach out if anything else is needed

Takes about 5 minutes. You have until October 15, 2026 — that’s roughly three months from today, and there’s no good reason to let it slip your mind.

Should Flo Settlement Class Members Opt Out or Object Before October 8, 2026?

What Opting Out Actually Means

The exclusion deadline already passed on July 20, 2025. If you didn’t request exclusion by then, you can no longer opt out of this settlement — you’re in the class whether you file a claim or not. Filing a claim is now your only path to a payment.

How to Object to the Settlement

You can still object if you disagree with the terms. Objections must be filed in writing with the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California by October 8, 2026, following the format described in the official notice. Objecting doesn’t remove you from the class or stop you from also filing a claim.

Talk to a class action lawsuit attorney before October 8, 2026 if you’re considering objecting.

Flo App Data Privacy Settlement — Frequently Asked Questions, No. 3:21-cv-00757

Do I need a lawyer to file a Flo app settlement claim?

No. Filing through the official site takes a few minutes and doesn’t require legal help. A lawyer is only useful if you’re weighing whether to object or if you have a much larger individual claim.

Is the Flo app settlement legitimate?

Yes. It stems from a real federal case, Frasco v. Flo Health Inc., No. 3:21-cv-00757, and is administered by A.B. Data on a court-authorized site. Real settlements never ask you to pay a fee to file.

When will Flo settlement payments be sent?

The administrator hasn’t set a payment date. Payments go out only after the October 29, 2026 final approval hearing and after any appeals of that approval are resolved.

What if I missed the Flo app claim deadline

? Once October 15, 2026 passes without a submitted claim, you generally lose the right to a payment from this fund, even though you remain a class member bound by the settlement’s terms.

Will my Flo settlement payment go on a 1099?

Possibly. Payments over $600 may be reported. Talk to a tax professional about how a settlement payment affects your filing.

Is the Meta verdict part of this Flo settlement?

No. Meta went to trial separately and a jury found it liable in August 2025. That’s a different payment process, and eligible people will be contacted about it on its own timeline.

Do I have to prove I used Flo during the class period?

No documentation is required. You self-certify your eligibility on the claim form.
