Verify Our Privacy Claims

Don't just trust us—verify for yourself that your data never leaves your device.

100% on-device storage

How to Verify

We encourage you to verify our privacy claims. Here's how:

1

Monitor Network Traffic

Use your device's network monitoring tools to see that Lova makes no outbound connections with your health data:

iOS

Use a network proxy app to monitor traffic

Android

Enable developer options to view network activity

Desktop

Use Wireshark or similar tools

ℹ️

What You'll Find

Lova only connects to the internet to check for app updates. Your cycle data, symptoms, and health information are never transmitted.
2

Check App Permissions

Review what permissions Lova requests:

Storage: To save your data locally
Notifications: For period reminders (optional)

Notice what we don't request:

No location access
No contacts access
No advertising identifiers
No background data sync
3

Use Airplane Mode

Lova works completely offline. Put your device in airplane mode and use the app normally:

Log your period
Track symptoms
View predictions
Export your data

Everything works because everything is local.

4

Check Local Storage

On desktop platforms, you can locate and inspect the database file:

  • • It's a standard SQLite database
  • • Encrypted with your device key
  • • Contains all your data locally

Third-Party Validation

Our privacy architecture has been reviewed by security professionals:

  • • No hidden network calls found
  • • Local-only storage confirmed
  • • Encryption implementation verified

Compare to Competitors

Try the same verification with other period tracking apps:

  • • Monitor their network traffic
  • • Check their permission requests
  • • See if they work offline

The difference is clear.

💡

Still Skeptical?

Good. Healthy skepticism protects your privacy. Keep monitoring, keep verifying. We have nothing to hide.

Technical Verification

For technical users who want to verify independently:

iOS

  1. 1. Settings → Privacy & Security → App Privacy Report
  2. 2. Find Lova in the list
  3. 3. See all network activity and permissions

Android

Use Android's Privacy Dashboard:

  1. 1. Settings → Privacy → Privacy Dashboard
  2. 2. View Lova's permission usage
  3. 3. Check for any unexpected access
