Draft for counsel · 2 October 2026
Privacy
This page is a placeholder for counsel. It describes, in plain language, how My Gene Story intends to handle personal information on mygenestory.com. It is not the final policy.
What we ask for
- Email and shipping country when you join an interest list
- An optional first name on those forms
- A raw DNA file name and size when you upload — the file itself stays on your device in this phase
- Payment details only if you buy a trait report, processed by Shopify
What we don’t do
We don’t sell your genetic data. Interest lists are not a bulk email blast.
How long we keep it
Waitlist entries are stored so we can contact you about the list you joined. An upload receipt records the upload action and, if you leave one, an email so we can let you know when stories open. In this early version the DNA file stays on your device. Email ask@mygenestory.com with "Privacy" in the subject if you have a privacy question.
