DNA and genetic testing firm 23andMe is in turmoil following a data breach last year and its ongoing financial decline.
Founder Anne Wojcicki said she was “considering third -party takeover proposals” for the company.
A lack of federal regulation and a cluttered mess of state privacy laws means the data of millions of Americans is also on the table.
Requesting the deletion of your data on 23andMe is relatively easy to do.
The company will hold on to some of your genetic information for an unspecified amount of time.
If you’ve already agreed to share your data, you can reverse that consent, but there’s no way to delete that information.
