Access our digital handbook, Strategies for Safeguarding Reproductive Healthcare Privacy Rights.

Following the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization overturning Roe v. Wade, people seeking reproductive healthcare, particularly in states that have limited the right to reproductive health services, should consider additional steps to protect their privacy, both on and offline. Clinics and healthcare providers must also evaluate how their collection of patient information may put their patients at risk. Further, if law enforcement is going to serve legal process on a private entity in a reproductive health case, it will most likely be on a major technology company. These companies should consider taking additional steps to enhance privacy to protect people seeking reproductive healthcare. Our digital handbook, Strategies for Safeguarding Reproductive Healthcare Privacy Rights, offers guidance for individuals and reproductive healthcare providers, as well as recommendations for technology companies in a post-Dobbs world.
