Reproductive Data Privacy Laws in Colorado (2026)

Last updated: March 21, 2026

TLDR

Abortion access is constitutionally protected in Colorado. Period tracker data faces low subpoena risk backed by the Colorado Privacy Act and HB 23-1058.

DEFINITION

Subpoena
A court order compelling a person or company to produce documents or data. Period tracker apps that store data on their servers can be served with subpoenas — apps that store data only on your device cannot.

DEFINITION

Reproductive data
Health information related to menstrual cycles, pregnancy, fertility, and related symptoms. This data is not protected by HIPAA when held by period tracker apps, meaning standard federal health privacy law does not apply.

DEFINITION

On-device storage
A privacy architecture where all personal data is stored exclusively on the user device and never transmitted to a company server. Because there is no server record, law enforcement subpoenas have nothing to retrieve.
