\"\"<\/a>The personal sexual data of millions of women have been shared with Facebook via fertility tracking apps, a\u00a0Privacy International\u00a0report<\/a> has found. These apps collect information such as when a user starts or stops their period, moods, cravings, sex life, and other sensitive information. This may have been sent to Facebook and used to market targeted ads.<\/p>\n

Two of the fertility tracking apps have a combined 7 million users<\/a>. Investigators found that the data regarding users\u2019 sexual health was sent to Facebook without obtaining consent from the users. This is just the latest in a slew of data breaches over the last five years but is almost entirely different from any other: by tracking and reporting data to Facebook concerning users\u2019 mood, cycle, and sex life, advertisers are able to target specific advertisements\u2013such as emotional ads\u2013at specific times of the month.<\/p>\n
