Urinary Tract Health Privacy and Data Considerations
How urinary tract health data should be handled: local-first processing, encryption and real user control.

Sensitive by nature
Data about urinary tract health is deeply personal, so it deserves the strongest protections by default.

The most sensitive signals from voiding frequency and timing should be processed on-device, minimised, encrypted and deletable on demand.
- Voiding frequency and timing
- Urine colour, pH and concentration cues
- Persistent deviations from baseline
“The test you take every day beats the perfect test you take once a year.”
Trust is the product
A monitor you don't trust won't be used — so privacy isn't a constraint on tracking urinary tract health, it's the point.
