Oura explicitly collects and processes reproductive health data as part of its core service offering, which is among the most sensitive categories of personal health information.
This analysis describes what Oura's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology
Reproductive health data carries heightened legal and personal risk, particularly given evolving US state laws on reproductive rights; users should understand that this data is stored by Oura and, in Platform contexts, can be shared with third-party Data Recipients.
Oura processes reproductive health data as part of its standard service, and this data may be shared with third parties such as employers or researchers through the Oura Platform if a user consents, with Oura then disclaiming responsibility for how those parties use it.

"Our products are designed to help you to track important aspects of your health like your daily habits, reproductive health, and the quality of your sleep – we understand that data does not get much more personal than this.— Excerpt from Oura's Oura Privacy Policy
REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Reproductive health data is classified as sensitive personal information under CCPA and CPRA and as special category data under GDPR, requiring explicit consent for processing. Several US states have enacted or proposed legislation specifically protecting reproductive health data from disclosure to law enforcement. The Washington My Health MY Data Act explicitly protects consumer health data including reproductive health information. The FTC has issued policy statements on the sensitivity of reproductive health data following Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: High. The combination of reproductive health data collection, the Oura Platform data sharing model, and the evolving US legal landscape around reproductive rights creates significant exposure. Law enforcement requests for reproductive health data in states with abortion restrictions could implicate this data. Oura's commitment to oppose surveillance requests provides some protection but is not absolute. JURISDICTION FLAGS: US states with restrictions on reproductive rights create heightened risk for reproductive health data held by technology companies. Washington state residents have specific protections under the My Health MY Data Act. California residents have CPRA-based opt-in rights. Illinois BIPA may apply if reproductive health data is processed in conjunction with biometric identifiers. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Organizations deploying Oura Platform in employment contexts should assess whether employee reproductive health data may flow to them as Data Recipients and should evaluate the legal and ethical implications of receiving such data. Enterprise contracts should specify whether reproductive health data is included in or excluded from the data shared through the Platform. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal teams should conduct a specific data protection impact assessment for reproductive health data processing. Consent mechanisms for reproductive health data should be reviewed to confirm they are explicit, granular, and clearly disclosed. Data retention schedules for reproductive health data should be documented and minimized. Legal teams in US states with evolving reproductive rights laws should monitor for law enforcement data requests targeting this data category.
