It gives you an easy, automated way to find out if you’ve had a potential COVID-19 exposure, and connects you with the resources you need if you are exposed. It does all this while preserving your privacy, and ensuring you are in control of your information. Using WA Exposure Notification is voluntary and you can turn the system off or deactivate the app at any time. WA Exposure Notification will never collect, track, or store your location, GPS information, or personal information.
