Decide before you order, not after you have read it.

This is the notice you should read before ordering a genomic panel, and what you are agreeing to when you do. It exists because genetic testing is not like the rest of what we sell, and because several states require your specific, separate agreement before a company may collect or use your genetic data at all.

Blood panels do not require this consent. If you are buying a blood panel only, the Terms of Use and Sale and the Privacy Policy cover you, and you can stop reading here.

This notice sits alongside our Terms of Use and Sale, Privacy Policy, Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy and Medical Disclaimer.

When you consent to a genomic panel, you are agreeing to each of these, and to nothing beyond them:

1. (1)That you provide a cheek swab sample voluntarily, that it is your own sample, and that you are 18 or over.
2. (2)That the sample is sent to our partner clinical laboratory and tested for the specific variants listed in the panel you bought.
3. (3)That the laboratory generates genetic data from it and reports the result to us.
4. (4)That we hold that result in your account, show it to you, and keep it while your account is open.
5. (5)That we share the minimum identifying detail with the laboratory needed to attach the right result to the right person.

This is the part most worth your attention, and the part most easily oversold.

• A genomic panel tests specific named variants. It is not a whole-genome test and it is not a whole-exome test. Not finding a variant we did not test for is not the same as not having it.
• The results are not diagnostic. They do not tell you that you have a condition, and they are not a substitute for clinical genetic testing ordered and interpreted by a provider.
• A variant associated with increased risk is not a prediction. Most conditions involve many genes, and environment and behaviour besides. Plenty of people carrying a risk variant never develop the condition, and plenty without it do.
• A result that does not show a risk variant is not protection, and not a clean bill of health.
• Genetic associations are drawn from studied populations, and the evidence base is stronger for some ancestries than others. A risk estimate may fit you less well than it appears to.
• Your genotype does not change, so a genomic panel is a one-time test. Interpretation does change as science moves, and a result read today may be understood differently later.

These panels are not suitable for, and must not be used for, diagnosing a condition, deciding on treatment, prenatal or carrier screening, determining paternity or family relationships, or establishing ancestry.

Some results cannot be unlearned

The Methylation Genomic Panel includes APOE, which is associated with risk of late-onset Alzheimer's disease. There is currently no treatment that changes that risk. Some people want to know and plan around it. Some people specifically do not, and that is an entirely reasonable position. Decide which you are before you order, because once you have read it you cannot go back.

Your results are partly about your relatives

You share genetic material with your parents, siblings and children. A result about you is partial information about them, and they have not agreed to anything with us. Consider whether you want to tell them, and whether they would want to know, before a conversation happens by accident.

What genetic non-discrimination law does not cover

Consider talking to someone first

A genetic counselor or your own healthcare provider can help you decide whether you want a particular result before you have it, which is a better time to think about it than afterwards. We do not provide genetic counseling and we cannot interpret a result for you.

Your cheek swab goes from you to the partner clinical laboratory. Cellubrite never holds your sample.

The laboratory tests it for the variants in your panel and handles and disposes of it under its own procedures and its own retention obligations as a clinical laboratory. Those obligations are set by law. We do not control them and cannot shorten them.

You can ask us to have your sample destroyed. Write to privacy@cellubritehealth.com and we will pass the request to the laboratory and tell you what it says. We will be straight with you about what it can and cannot do, rather than promising a destruction we do not control. A sample already consumed by testing no longer exists to destroy.

• It is stored in your account and shown to you.
• It is not sold, and not shared for advertising, in any form, including hashed, pseudonymised or aggregated.
• It is not used for research and not contributed to any research database, biobank or public genomic database.
• It is not given to employers, health insurers, life insurers, disability insurers, long-term care insurers or data brokers.
• It is not used to train machine learning models.
• It is given to law enforcement only on valid legal process, reviewed for validity and scope, disclosing the narrowest thing that answers the request, and we will tell you unless we are legally prohibited from doing so.

The full detail is in the Privacy Policy and the Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy.

You can withdraw this consent at any time, for any reason or none, by writing to privacy@cellubritehealth.com. We will not ask you to justify it and we will not try to talk you out of it.

1. (1)If you withdraw before your sample reaches the laboratory, we stop the test and no genetic data is ever generated from it.
2. (2)If you withdraw after testing has begun, we stop processing your genetic data, delete it from our systems, and ask the laboratory to destroy the sample.
3. (3)Either way we confirm in writing what was done and what could not be.

Withdrawing costs you nothing and we will not ask you to justify it, but it does not return the price of the panel. All sales are final once your payment is taken, as set out in section 07 of the terms. We would rather say so here than have you discover it at the point you are trying to exercise a right.

Withdrawal is not retroactive. It cannot undo a disclosure already properly made, and it does not reach the laboratory's own record, which it must keep under its own obligations. Anyone who tells you otherwise is describing something they cannot do.

Consent is given by a separate, affirmative step at the point you order a genomic panel or register a genomic kit, not by accepting the general terms and not by using the site. Cellubrite Inc. records which version of this notice you agreed to and when, so that both of us can tell later what was actually agreed.

You are consenting to the version of this notice effective 29 July 2026. If we change it materially, we will ask again rather than treat your earlier consent as covering the change.

If you are not sure what you agreed to, or want a copy of your recorded consent, ask at privacy@cellubritehealth.com and we will send it to you.

Questions about your data or your consent go to privacy@cellubritehealth.com. Questions about an order, a kit or reaching your results go to support@cellubritehealth.com.

Questions about whether a genomic panel is right for you go to a healthcare provider or a genetic counselor. We cannot answer that one, and we would be doing you a disservice by trying.
