Can I Stay Anonymous When Taking the Test?Updated 2 months ago
Yes—you absolutely can take the CircleDNA test with your privacy and identity protected. While we do need some basic details to generate your personalized report, your DNA is processed with strict security and anonymity in mind.
Here’s how we protect your identity throughout the process:
Barcode-Based Processing: When your sample reaches our lab, it's identified only by a unique barcode—not your name. Our lab team never sees your personal details.
Separate & Encrypted Storage: Your genetic data and personal information are stored separately, each secured with its own layer of encryption.
Only Essential Information: We only ask for what’s necessary to ensure accurate results, such as age and gender for health-related insights.
You Stay in Control: You have full control over your data, including the option to delete your account and all related data at any time.
GDPR-Compliant: We meet global privacy regulations, including GDPR, to ensure your data remains secure and respected.
While full anonymity isn't possible—since some information is needed to generate your personalized insights—your DNA is never linked to your name inside the lab, giving you peace of mind throughout the entire process.
