  • Delete any electronic period tracking apps and any data on these apps.

  • Use only verbal communication or end-to-end encrypted apps such as Signal, Telegram. Note that group chats on these apps are not encrypted.

  • Don't post or take any photos or videos of protesters where their faces are visible on social media.

  • Virtual private networks (VPNs) can hide browsing information from internet service providers.

  • Use Tor Browser for maximum security

  • Turn off biometrics and use a number lock on your phone. Police can force you to use your face or fingerprint to unlock your device, but they can’t force you to give up your password.

  • Use separate social media accounts for any protest work. A court order could allow law enforcement to access private accounts.
