About Vagal Tracker

Why this app was built, who for and by whom

About

This site was designed by me to keep track of the state of my vegal nervous system as I worked on healing trauma by participating in Dr Rutstein's Healing Trauma Program.

The app is simple, depending on how you are feeling, you choose a state of ventral, sympathetic or dorsal and add any notes for that day. A graph is then shown as an indicator of progress.


Who is it for?

I decided to create this app for others in the program or anyone working on healing trauma related to their nervous system.


Privacy and security

I have worked in the field of Internet security for over 25 years and have a strong understanding of what it takes to protect your data and maintain the privacy of your information. As such, this site is built with the following in mind:

  • The app uses a secure authentication system where your login information lives. I only store an email address in my system to be able to contact you if required.
  • All your data is stored in a secure database and your notes are encrypted so that only you are able to access them. I have no way to read your private information. Your PII (your email) is not linked in my system to the data, if there was a data breach, nobody could decrypt your private information nor associate any of it with an email address.
  • The application is built on a secure platform with all measures taken to protect your data.
