Privacy Highlights

These "Privacy Highlights" provide an overview of some core components of our data handling practices. Please be sure to review the Full Privacy Statement.

Information We Collect

We generally collect the following information:

  Information we receive when you use our Services.

We collect Web-Behavior Information via cookies and other similar tracking technologies when you use and access our Services (our website, mobile apps, products, software and other services). See our Cookie Policy (https://www.trugeny.com/about/cookies/)for more information.

  Information you share directly with us.

We collect and process your information when you place an order, create an account, register your truGeny kit, complete research surveys, post on our Forums or use other messaging features, and contact Customer Care. This information can generally be categorized as Registration Information, Self-Reported Information, and/or User Content as defined in our full Privacy Statement.

  Information from our DNA testing services.

With your consent, we extract your DNA from your saliva sample and analyze it to produce your Genetic Information (the As, Ts, Cs, and Gs at particular locations in your genome) in order to provide you with truGeny reports.

How We Use Informationc

We generally process Personal Information for the following reasons:

  To provide our Services.

We process Personal Information in order to provide our Service, which includes processing payments, shipping kits to customers, creating customer accounts and authenticating logins, analyzing saliva samples and DNA, and delivering results and powering tools like DNA Relatives.

  To analyze and improve our Services.

We constantly work to improve and provide new reports, tools, and Services. For example, we are constantly working to improve our ability to assign specific ancestries to your DNA segments and maximize the granularity of our results. We may also need to fix bugs or issues, analyze use of our website to improve the customer experience or assess our marketing campaigns.

  For truGeny Research, with your consent.

If you choose to consent to participate in truGeny Research, truGeny researchers can include your de-identified Genetic Information and Self-Reported Information in a large pool of customer data for analyses aimed at making scientific discoveries.

Control: Your Choices

truGeny gives you the ability to share information in a variety of ways. You choose:

  To store or discard your saliva sample

after it has been analyzed.

  Which health report(s)

you view and/or opt-in to view.

  When and with whom you share your information

including friends, family members, health care professionals, or other individuals outside our Services, including through third party services that accept truGeny data and social networks.

  To give or decline consent for truGeny Research.

By agreeing to the Research Consent Document, Individual Data Sharing Consent Document, or participating in a truGeny Research Community you can give consent for the use of your data for scientific research purposes.

  To delete your truGeny account and data

at any time.

How We Secure Information

truGeny implements measures and systems to ensure confidentiality, integrity, and availability of truGeny data.

  De-identification/Pseudonymization, encryption, and data segmentation.

Registration Information is stripped from Sensitive Information, including genetic and phenotypic data. This data is then assigned a random ID so the person who provided the data cannot reasonably be identified. truGeny uses industry standard security measures to encrypt sensitive personal data both when it is stored (data-at-rest) and when it is being transmitted (data-in-flight). Additionally, data are segmented across logical database systems to further prevent re-identifiability.

  Limiting access to essential personnel.

We limit access of information to authorized personnel, based on job function and role. truGeny access controls include multi-factor authentication, single sign-on, and a strict least-privileged authorization policy.

  Detecting threats and managing vulnerabilities.

truGeny uses state of the art intrusion detection and prevention measures to stop any potential attacks against its networks. We have integrated continuous vulnerability scanning in our build pipeline and regularly engage third party security experts to conduct penetration tests.

Risks and Considerations

There may be some consequences of using truGeny Services that you haven't considered.

 You may discover things about yourself and/or your family members that may be upsetting or cause anxiety and that you may not have the ability to control or change.

  You may discover relatives who were previously unknown to you, or may learn that someone you thought you were related to is not your biological relative.

  In the event of a data breach it is possible that your data could be associated with your identity, which could be used against your interests.

  Legal bases for processing Personal Information from the EU Direct

We describe how we process your Personal Information in Sections 2 through 4 of this Privacy Statement. We may process your Personal Information if you consent to the processing, to satisfy our legal obligations, if it is necessary to carry out our obligations arising from any contracts we entered with you or to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract with you, or for our legitimate interests to protect our property, rights or safety of truGeny, our customers or others.

  Marketing

We will obtain your consent where required to send you marketing communications using electronic means. You may withdraw your consent at any time within your Account Settings or by emailing privacy@trugeny.com (mailto:privacy@trugeny.com) We will only contact you by electronic means (email, push notification, SMS, etc.) with information about our Services that are similar to those which were the subject of a previous sale or negotiations of a sale to you. We will only share your Personal Information with third parties for marketing purposes with your explicit consent. If you do not want us to use your Personal Information in this way, please review and update your Account Settings as necessary or contact us at privacy@trugeny.com (mailto:privacy@trugeny.com). You may raise such objection with regard to initial or further processing for purposes of direct marketing at any time and free of charge. The withdrawal of your consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal. Other marketing activities will happen based on the legitimate interests of truGeny. E.g., where we tailor marketing communications or send targeted marketing messages via post, phone or social media and other third party platforms; and in providing existing customers with information (via email or other channels) about similar products and services.

  Privacy Rights

You can exercise your privacy rights by following the instructions below or contacting us at privacy@trugeny.com. (mailto:privacy@trugeny.com) We will handle your request under applicable law. When you make a request, we may verify your identity to protect your privacy and security. Right to withdraw consent. To the extent truGeny requests and you provide your consent to the processing of your Personal Information, you can withdraw your consent at any time. Your withdrawal will not affect the lawfulness of our processing based on consent before your withdrawal. Right of access to and rectification of your Personal Information. Our site allows you to access and rectify certain Registration Information within your Account Settings, and your Self-Reported Information by going to the surveys page. You can download your raw Genetic Information within your Account Settings or by going to the applicable tool in "Tools". If you would like to access or rectify any other information, contact Customer Care and we will do our best to assist you without undue delay. We may reject part or all of your request if responding to your request could adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others. Right to erasure (or, "Right to be Forgotten"). As explained under Section 5.d. ("Account Deletion"), we allow our customers to delete theiraccounts at any time. You can request erasure of Personal Information that: (a) is no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed; (b) was collected in relation to processing to which you previously consented, but later withdrew such consent; or (c) was collected in relation to processing activities to which you object, and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for our processing. If we have made your Personal Information public and we are required to erase such Personal Information, we will take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform controllers that are processing any links to or copies or replications of your Personal Information of your erasure request. Our assistance with your request for erasure is subject to limitations by relevant data protection laws, available technology and the cost of implementation.

Right to data portability. If we process your Personal Information based on a contract with you or based on your consent, or the processing is carried out by automated means, you may request to receive your Personal Information in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and to have us transfer your Personal Information directly to another controller, where technically feasible, unless exercise of this right adversely affects the rights and freedoms of others. A "controller" is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of your Personal Information.

Right to restriction of our processing. You can restrict our processing of your Personal Information where one of the following applies: (a) you dispute the accuracy of Personal Information processed by truGeny (for a period enabling us to verify its accuracy); (b) the processing is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of the Personal Information and request the restriction of its use instead; (c) truGeny no longer needs the Personal Information for the purposes of the processing, but it is required by you for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims; and (d) you have objected to certain processing relying on legitimate interest, pending the verification whether truGeny's legitimate grounds override your rights. Restricted Personal Information shall only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest. We will notify you if the restriction is lifted. Notification of erasure, rectification and restriction. We will provide notice to each recipient that we disclosed your Personal Information to regarding any rectification or erasure of Personal Information or restriction of processing, unless you initiated the disclosure or providing notice proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort. Upon your request, we will share the list of recipients with you. Right to object to processing. Where the processing of your Personal Information is based on consent, contract, or legitimate interests described under the Legal Bases for Processing heading above, you may restrict or object, at any time, to the processing of your Personal Information as permitted by applicable law. We may continue to process your Personal Information if it is necessary for the defense of legal claims, or for any other exceptions permitted by applicable law. Automated individual decision-making, including profiling. You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal or similarly significant effects on you, except as allowed under applicable data protection laws. Retention of your Personal Information. Unless you make a request for us to delete your account or delete certain Personal Information (i.e., User Content, etc.), we will store your Personal Information as long as your account is open. If you request to delete your account, we will take the steps described under “Your Choices – Account Deletion” and delete all your Personal Information, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. The rights described above may be limited by local laws. Further, your right of access and deletion is not absolute and may not be available if fulfillment of such right would, among other things: cause interference with execution and enforcement of the law and legal private rights (such as in the case of the investigation or detection of legal claims or the right to a fair trial); breach or prejudice the rights of confidentiality and security of others; prejudice security or grievance investigations, corporate re-organizations, future and ongoing negotiations with third parties, the compliance with regulatory requirements relating to economic and financial management; or otherwise violate the interests of others or where the burden or cost of providing access would be disproportionate.
