Meta Platforms, the parent company of Facebook, has been found in violation of California’s privacy laws for its handling of sensitive health data collected through the Flo period-tracking app. The findings stem from an investigation into how Meta allegedly accessed and used personal health information shared by users of the app without proper consent..

Meta平台公司，即Facebook的母公司，因处理通过Flo经期追踪应用收集的敏感健康数据而被发现违反了加州的隐私法。这一发现源于对Meta涉嫌在未经适当同意的情况下访问和使用该应用用户分享的个人健康信息的调查。

The investigation revealed that Meta obtained data from Flo Health, a widely-used menstrual cycle tracking application, and utilized it for targeted advertising purposes. This practice reportedly occurred despite assurances to users that their health information would remain private. California authorities determined that this activity breached the state’s Consumer Privacy Act, which mandates transparency and user control over personal data.

调查发现，Meta从广受欢迎的月经周期追踪应用Flo Health获取数据，并将其用于定向广告。尽管向用户保证其健康信息将保持私密，但据报道该行为仍然发生。加州当局认定此举违反了州《消费者隐私法》，该法要求对个人数据的透明度和用户控制权。

The case highlights ongoing concerns about how tech companies handle sensitive health-related information in an era where digital tools increasingly intersect with healthcare services..

该案件突显了在数字工具与医疗服务日益交织的时代，科技公司如何处理敏感健康相关信息的持续担忧。
