The data controller is GENELINK, S.L., the company behind Koko Genetics. We process your data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Spain’s Organic Law 3/2018 on Personal Data Protection and the Guarantee of Digital Rights (LOPDGDD).
• Your pet’s DNA and your data. An animal’s DNA is not, in itself, a person’s genetic data. However, once results are linked to you, they become your personal data and we protect them accordingly. We do not search for or interpret human DNA.
• Where data are processed. Analysis and data storage take place within the European Economic Area. If an auxiliary supplier processes data outside it, the safeguards required by the GDPR apply.
• Retention periods. We retain results while your account is active and normally keep the sample for up to two months after analysis is complete.
• Who has access. Staff who need access to provide the service have role-based permissions. Suppliers, such as the laboratory, access only the data necessary for their tasks, under contract.
