Data Handling
- Samples remain the property of the client and all results will be confidential. If there is possibility for them to be used for another project, distribution to a third party, or the results incorporated in any publication we will seek written permission.
- DNA extracted from samples will be kept for three years but any surplus sample discarded after project completion unless they are requested to be returned. Raw data are stored on permanent archives indefinitely and backed up on separate hard drives.
