Furrow orb weaver

7097.      This spider has began making a web on the wall above our toilet. It is a small spider, roughly 7mm long. I am slightly concerned that if it is venomous, when it makes a larger web it could get in someone hair in the early morning/late night when they aren’t paying attention. My phone is telling me it is a false widow, but from what I can find they are larger with different looking pattern. Is this spider dangerous? Should I worry about it or leave it alone?
