Google and Flo Health will pay a combined $56 million to settle a federal class action lawsuit accusing them of improperly sharing sensitive user data from the Flo period-tracking app.

Users of the Flo period-tracking app filed a class action lawsuit alleging the company shared highly sensitive data — such as menstrual cycle details, sexual activity, and location information — with third parties, including Google, Meta and Flurry, without users’ consent. The class action lawsuit claims Flo monetized this information through tracking tools and data analytics partnerships. 

Earlier this year, Meta was found not liable in a jury trial. However, the other defendant, Flurry, reached a $3.5 million settlement in April 2025.

The settlements resolve class action claims that the defendants violated the California Invasion of Privacy Act (CIPA) by using data analytics tools embedded in the Flo app to obtain sensitive menstrual and sexual health information. 

Google and Flo deny the allegations but agreed to a settlement to resolve the claims.

Google, Flo Health $56M settlement comes after Meta trial

The $56 million settlement comes after a California jury found Meta liable for violating CIPA by eavesdropping on or recording app users’ sensitive health data without consent.

A judge declined to overturn the verdict earlier this month, finding that there was no evidence to justify reversing the result.

Under the terms of the Google class action settlement, eligible members of the certified class consist of all Flo app users who entered menstruation or pregnancy information into the app between Nov. 1, 2016, and Feb. 28, 2019.

Each class member who submits a valid proof of claim will receive a pro rata share of what’s left of the settlement fund after subtracting payments for notice and settlement administration costs, class counsel’s fees and expenses, service awards for the named plaintiffs and any other approved costs, according to the proposed deal.
