- bee_rider 2y agoThere’s no HIPAA concern if you just want to delete your info, I think.
- lcnPylGDnU4H9OF 2y agoI don't know enough about HIPAA to know if it would be a violation for them to delete my data upon your request but, assuming it is, that would be a good case for requiring identity verification.
- HeatrayEnjoyer 2y agoHIPAA also includes the right to correct incorrect information in your records. 23 may have to get unconventional to verify the individual but they're a DNA lab and have everything they need to make a positive confirmation.
- dekhn 2y agoHIPAA doesn't apply to 23&me.
- chimeracoder 2y ago> I assume they're under HIPAA regulations You would be incorrect. HIPAA does not apply to 23 & Me (or, for that matter, to almost any direct-to-consumer product).
