Limitations on the scope of our services
Map My Gene currently provides genetic counselling services in English only,
and does not provide in-person genetic counselling or other support services.
However, a Map My Gene-appointed Counsellor or your healthcare provider can
help identify additional professional resources in your area.
We may incorporate different or additional technologies to collect genetic
data in the future. We may, at our sole discretion, and to the extent
consistent with the Informed Consent that you have agreed to, choose to
re-process your DNA sample using any such different or additional technology
and include the results within your updated Report. However, your purchase
of any Service does not automatically include any such different or additional
technology, and we reserve the right to charge you additional fees prior
to processing your sample using any such different or additional technology.
You may also need to submit a new biological sample for processing on
such different or additional technology.
Privacy and security
Map My Gene' current privacy and security policies and practices are described

personally identifiable information about you, consistent with our Privacy
Policy. However, you acknowledge that security safeguards, by their nature,
