We produce clinically actionable results.
If you use one of our genetic tests, we’ll use your information to interpret and report on genetic variants to help you and your healthcare provider understand how your genes may impact your health.

We also produce other useful insights.
Based on the information you provide or we generate (for example, genetic results if you’ve taken one of our genetic tests), we can provide insights about your health or tell you about other products and services that may be of interest to you.

We keep the system running accurately.
DNA World maintains detailed quality control procedures to help ensure the reliability of our tests. Your sequenced data, de-identified to protect your privacy, can help with these procedures, along with validation studies.

We improve current products.
Your de-identified data may be used for quality improvements to current products, like improving variant classification for underrepresented populations, or improving our accuracy over technically challenging regions of the genome.

We support public health databases.
DNA World believes strongly in contributing to the world’s genetic knowledge. We contribute de-identified genetic variants to public databases like ClinVar at the National Institutes of Health (NIH).

Genetic counseling services are available to all patients tested by DNA World.
A genetic counseling session is available to answer brief questions about genetic testing and results. This is included at no additional cost to patients located in the US, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and US territories.

The physician who ordered your test.
If you requested a genetic test, the provider who orders DNA World for you will receive a copy of your results automatically. These providers’ clinics or health systems may also receive a copy of your results automatically. Additionally, you can request that we send a copy of your results to additional providers of your choosing

Optional: Those involved in providing support products.
If you schedule an appointment, a genetic counselor will be able to view your results so that they can address any questions. When answering questions at your behest, Our Client Support can view some of your information and any information you provide them as part of your inquiry.
