With 23 and Me getting into selling information for added revenue, the privacy of DNA testing providers makes me not want to use the service. Can anyone recommend a privacy focused DNA testing company that has a good track record?

Yeah, that’s what I was asking more. Sorry I wasn’t clear. I have some family history of genetic issues and I was looking at a test to try to see if that was a problem in me. I just didn’t want it sold to every company under the sun.
Use Ancestry.com instead. Ancestry asks if you want to be part of x y z. Say no to all. Also opt for Ancestry to destroy your sample. Once your test is completed, download the raw data file. Then request your data and account to be deleted.
You can then use services like Promethease to give you information on any potential genetic issues.
I don’t know if 23 and me offers the same level of privacy as only have experience with Ancestry.com.
Make sure whichever service you use, you read the privacy statement.
