Terms & Conditions

TERMS & CONDITIONS

The genetic risk profile is not diagnostic in nature and should not be used as one. "High risk" for certain conditions does not necessarily mean that the patient will get that condition either now or in the future. Environmental factors and lifestyle related factors heavily influence the outcome of many of these conditions.

HEALTH & GENETIC INFORMATION

  • Report generation:

Your health and genetic information are confidential and we make sure all information is stored in Biotracker. The key use of genetic information is to assess your genetic predisposition and report this to you (please note that your health history is not used in this report). Following your genetic counselling , we prepare an action plan to achieve your health goals - this report utilizes your health history and genetic information. 

  • De-identification of data:

Before your blood/saliva/other sample enters our lab, we make sure it is assigned a unique ID and de-identified, so that your personal information is not accessible to all. Only authorised personnel from our team have access to this information. Throughout the processing, your sample is tracked by Biotracker.

  • Research use:

Considering the significance of genetic and health information in research, we use this information without any personal identification for further analysis, with customer’s consent. During sample collection, we send out a consent form to all customers.

Proton Health will not be held responsible for any violation of privacy in such cases. In the future, Proton Health may sell business units, product lines, or other assets. In such cases, customer information may be one of the transferred business assets.
