    Posting a deal then disabling your account is not ok. Especially if you're associated.

    Negging for issue with the seller. They've done a runner.

    How is the test data used once you've compiled the results?

    Does it get used by third-parties for research and/or collated and used for health trend analysis with Universities or other private research firms?

    Can we request the deletion of our data and are you forced to comply with these requests or are they voluntary?

    Edit: After digging around in their Terms and conditions for a while

    By submitting any information to the Eugene App, you acknowledge and agree that such submitted content (each submission individually, and all submissions, collectively, referred to herein as the “App Submission”) may be available for viewing by other registered users or to affiliates, service providers or other business partners of Eugene, AS DE-IDENTIFIABLE DATA ONLY, for research, statistical, study, and evaluation purposes.
    Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, Eugene makes no representation or guarantee that your profile or provider information will be reviewed.
    You grant to Eugene a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable and transferable license to use, reproduce, modify, publish, perform, transmit, distribute, prepare derivative works of and display such de-Identified information via any media in accordance with the Eugene Privacy Policy, and waive any moral rights you may have in such de-Identified information (in whole or in part) worldwide, in accordance with the Eugene Privacy Policy.

    Privacy Policy is fairly standard generic stuff (Privacy Act 1988 requirements)
    https://eugenelabs.com/policies/privacy-policy

    Though interestingly they do say it can be used for:

    • to undertake medical research as consented to by you;
    • to undertake general research or other reasonably related research activities, including surveys and polls and other reasonably related research activities;
    • for the administrative, employment, planning, service development, quality control and research purposes of Eugene

    Once you submit it, they effectively own your data forever, though they do say they "deidentify" it for use by third-parties, I'm still sceptical of these services after what people found out with 23andMe that their data passed through enough hands to end up with Pharmaceutical companies contacting them to use it.

    • Yes, my big concern with health data, is that it gets some to insurance companies who then use it to up your premium, refuse a claim or refuse cover/cancel your policy, based on some questionable genetic science.

      If the data is stolen and then onsold and washed thru a few third parties, I believe the insurance companies, etc they can use the data with no recourse.

      You probably don't need a $1,950 testing kit (which has a saving of AU$2,225) to be able to predict that.

    I've done the pre pregnancy test with these guys before, it was great.

    You and your partner spit in a tube they send you, then a month later you get the results via a zoom meeting with a genetic councillor who explains what everything means. Luckily we were low risk so it was pretty straigh forward.

    If I remember correctly they say you can use an alais when doing the test, so while they might have your DNA at least its not associated with your real identity.

    Haven't done the cancer or heart disease one though, but I think there are insurance issues with that one?

    Naming your genetics-related organisation "Eugene" is definitely something. :o
