Reputable at-home testing protects your data with HIPAA-aligned security, encryption, and clear consent – so your results stay private and under your control.
How your data is protected
Look for HIPAA-aligned handling, encryption in transit and at rest, and access controls that limit who can see your results.
Your consent and control
You should control who your results are shared with, and be able to understand and revoke consent.
What to check before testing
Read the privacy policy: how data is stored, whether it’s ever shared, and how you can delete it.
