Genetic Privacy Laws

Genetic privacy laws are regulations designed to protect your personal genetic information from being shared or used without your consent. They aim to prevent discrimination by employers or insurance companies based on your genetic data and ensure that your DNA details are kept confidential. These laws also regulate how laboratories, healthcare providers, and researchers can collect, store, and use genetic information. Overall, they help you maintain control over your genetic data and promote ethical use, balancing scientific progress with individual privacy rights.
