How to protect your 23andMe genetic data – 960 The Ref

Remember 23andMe? The company that gave customers saliva-based DNA testing kits to learn about their ancestry? Founded in 2006, the company also conducted health research and drug development.

Remember 23andMe? The company that gave customers saliva-based DNA testing kits to learn about their ancestry?

Founded in 2006, the company also conducted health research and drug development. But it struggled to find a profitable business model and eventually filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection back in March, raising concerns about the safety of customer data.

Well, 27 states and the District of Columbia on Monday filed a lawsuit in bankruptcy court seeking to block the sale of the company’s archive of genetic data without customer consent. The lawsuit comes as a biotechnology company seeks court’s approval to buy the struggling firm.

If you were a customer of 23andMe, you’re probably wondering what is going on with your data. It turns out you do have options if you want to protect your genetic self.

What happened to 23andMe?

23andMe filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection back in March. Anne Wojcicki, who co-founded the company nearly two decades ago and served as its CEO stepped down. The San Francisco-based company said that it would look to sell “substantially all of its assets” through a court-approved reorganization plan.

Wojcicki intends to bid on 23andMe as the company pursues a sale through the bankruptcy process. In a statement on social media, Wojcicki said that she resigned as CEO to be “in the best position” as an independent bidder.

23andMe said that filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection helps facilitate a sale of the company, meaning that it’s seeking new ownership. The company said it wants to pull back on its real estate footprint and has asked the court to reject lease contracts in San Francisco and Sunnyvale, California, and elsewhere to help cut costs. But the company plans to keep operating during the process.

I used the service, is my DNA data safe?

In a post about the Chapter 11 process, 23andMe said its users’ privacy and data are important considerations in any transaction and that any buyer will be required to comply with applicable laws when it comes to how it treats customer data.

But experts note that laws have limits. For one, the U.S. has no federal privacy law and only about 20 states do.

There are also security concerns. For instance, the turmoil of bankruptcy and related job cuts could leave fewer employees to protect customers’ data against hackers. It wouldn’t be the first time — a 2023 data breach exposed the genetic data of nearly 7 million customers at 23andMe, which later agreed to pay $30 million in cash to settle a class-action lawsuit accusing the company of failing to protect customers whose personal information was exposed.

Experts note that DNA data is particularly sensitive — and thus valuable.

“At a fundamental biological level, this is you and only you,” said David Choffnes, a computer science professor at Northeastern University and executive director of its Cybersecurity and Privacy Institute. “If you have an email address that gets compromised, you can find another email provider and start using a new email address. And you’re pretty much able to move on with your life without problem. And you just can’t do that with your genetic code.”

23andMe says it does not share information with health insurance companies, employers or public databases without users’ consent and with law enforcement only if required by a valid legal process, such as a subpoena. Choffnes said while that’s good, it’s a fairly narrow set of categories.

“There’s still other things that they are allowed to do with that data, including, as they mentioned, provide cross context, behavioral or targeted advertising,” he said. “So, you know, in a sense, even if they aren’t sending your personal data to an advertiser, there’s a long line of research that identifies how third parties can re-identify you from de-identified data by looking for patterns in it. And so if they’re targeting you with advertisements, for example, based on some information that they have about your genetic data, there’s probably a way that other parties could piece together other information they have access to.”

How can I delete my data from 23andMe?

California Attorney General Rob Bonta issued an urgent consumer alert before 23andMe filed for bankruptcy — noting the company’s financial distress and reminding people they have the right to have their data deleted.

If you have a 23andMe account, you can delete your data by logging in and going to “settings” and scrolling to a section called “23andMe Data” at the bottom of the page. Then, click “View,” download it if you want a copy then go to the “Delete Data” section and click “Permanently Delete Data.” 23andMe will email you to confirm and you will need to follow the link in the email to confirm your deletion request.

If you previously asked 23andMe to store your saliva sample and DNA, you can also ask that it be destroyed by going to your account settings and clicking on “Preferences.” And you can withdraw consent from third-party researchers to use your genetic data and sample under “Research and Product Consents.”

Eli Health raises $12 million Series A to expand continuous hormone monitoring services

Eli Health, a six-year-old health tech startup developing continuous hormone monitoring technology, has raised a $12 million Series A and launched its platform for cortisol measurement in beta. The Series A, which brings the company’s total funding to $20 million, was led by BDC Capital’s women-led-company-focused Thrive Venture Fund, and featured participation from several other firms including existing investor Muse Capital, whose founding partner Assia Grazioli-Venier is an Eli Health board member.

“This milestone is extremely meaningful, because to get to this point, it was close to six years of [research and development],” Eli Health co-founder and CEO Marina Pavlovic Rivas told SBJ. “For the first time, people are able to measure their hormones instantly, and this funding enables us to accelerate access to the product and to expand to other biomarkers.”

Founded in 2019 by Pavlovic Rivas and Thomas Cortina, life partners with respective backgrounds in data science and mechanical engineering/physics, Eli Health’s core innovation is in continuous hormone monitoring through saliva.

The company’s flagship product, the “Hormometer,” tests saliva for key hormones like cortisol (which cycles within the body daily) and progesterone (which cycles monthly) via a collection device — then, leveraging computer vision models to analyze the sample, returns results and AI-powered trends/recommendations to its mobile app through one’s phone camera.

Cortisol and progesterone levels have holistic health impacts, Pavlovic Rivas stresses, including on athletic performance and injury risk. And Eli Health’s innovative method of testing and monitoring, which is FDA-registered and third-party validated, will expand access to the data. Traditionally, blood or saliva-based hormone testing is done in-person at a lab, or through kits mailed to a lab, which can cost anywhere from $100-500 per test and take days-to-weeks to return results. Eli Health’s direct-to-consumer model costs $8 per test (minimum four tests per month) and produces results within minutes.

Pavlovic Rivas said Eli Health’s capacity to monitor both cortisol and progesterone are commercially ready, but the company is launching its cortisol monitoring first because of its broader applicability.

“One in three adults are affected by dysregulation when it comes to cortisol, and that’s true across gender, across ages,” Pavlovic Rivas said, noting that cortisol can impact areas including metabolic health, cardiovascular health, physical performance, cognitive performance and mental health. “We’re starting with that focus, and progesterone will follow shortly.”

Eli Health’s primary business focus is on its direct-to-consumer offering, but Pavlovic Rivas added the company is also currently piloting its technology with two sports teams. While declining to disclose the teams or their sports, she said one is a men’s team using Eli Health’s tech for cortisol monitoring, and one is a women’s team monitoring cortisol and progesterone levels in its players. Already, Pavlovic Rivas said she has seen teams adjust the intensity of training sessions based on the Hormometer’s real-time testing and monitoring capabilities.

“Having that ability to have the data instantly, instead of doing blood work once per season or a few times per season, it enables them to make instant decisions,” Pavlovic Rivas said, adding that, for cortisol, it would be normal to test twice per day (once in the morning and once in the evening), but in a sports team context that number can reach five or more to incorporate additional data points pre- and post-training. “This information would be impossible to get with delayed testing, because it takes at best a few days and, in most cases, a few weeks [to return results].”

Rematch Expands to DFW with AI-Powered Sports Video App Targeting U.S. Youth Market

A tech company setting up shop in Fort Worth-Dallas believes its innovation could play a major role in the booming U.S. youth and amateur sports industries.

A tech company setting up shop in Fort Worth-Dallas believes its innovation could play a major role in the booming U.S. youth and amateur sports industries.

Rematch, a sports video platform founded in France, is launching a U.S. app allowing users to capture, create, and share highlights instantly through AI-powered tools and technology.

The U.S. branch is based in Dallas-Fort Worth. Its CEO is Hanna Howard, who as a former TCU women’s assistant basketball coach is well-versed in the landscape of amateur sports. (Yes, it is true that in just the few short years Howard has been out of college basketball, collegiate sports have morphed into an amateur-professional hybrid.)

The company has other Texas connections, including majority owner Intervalle Capital, an Austin-based private equity firm.

Rematch has become the leading sports video platform in France with eye-popping metrics, including more than 30 million monthly views from a community of more than 600,000 users and followers.

That’s the kind of market traction that has executives enthusiastic about the American market, beginning in Fort Worth and Dallas.

“We happen to be located in one of the best sports markets in the country. My philosophy is let’s work out the kinks here in the DFW market. Let’s make sure that we’re really positioning ourselves in the U.S. market,” Howard said. “Our strategies need to be different from the French market. Our sports markets are different. Our target audience is different.

“We’re going to define the business here in this market so that when I feel like I’ve got a really strong grasp on what we’re doing and what we’re offering, it makes it much more scalable to activate other markets.”

Rematch was founded by Pierre Husson and a group of friends.

Husson, whom Howard described as a successful mid-level athlete at the semi-pro level, often struggled to find video content from his games and leagues.

“Sure, there’s the tactical camera that coaches use, but none of that really engaging content he knew was out there,” Howard said.

Recognizing that gap in the market, Husson, his friends, and an uncle began tossing around the idea of a highlight platform.

They ultimately agreed, Howard recalled: “We believe in the idea. Let’s create it.”

The platform’s edge is proprietary “auto-rewind” technology, which allows users to record highlights after they happen. Users can track action and hit record after a made basketball or goal. The technology will rewind 10 seconds and capture the moment. Those are banked and can be compiled for use in a text or social media post. Moments captured also live in the Rematch gallery. (And it’s easy to use. I can use it, so … .)

There is also an opportunity for teams to create sponsorship partnerships for use on the app.

The app is free. Howard said it is gaining momentum with more than 2,300 new users in May, the company’s best month since launching in January with basketball and soccer.

The launch of a premium app is close, Howard said. It will capture video in 4K and an AI enabled voice filter feature will remove unwanted conversations near the device, but it will maintain the environment audio of the cheers and game action.

Video rights fees in the U.S. are unique. Broadcast companies pay huge sums to professional sports leagues, college conferences, or teams in exchange for exclusive rights air games or highlights on television or digital platforms.

Rematch has secured partnerships with major European sports organizations and national federations for basketball, hockey, rugby, soccer, and volleyball in France. Nike also took notice of what was happening in La Belle France. The shoe and apparel giant, an exclusive partner in the French Football Federation, is an exclusive sponsor of all Rematch content.

Rematch US has recently partnered with the Denton Diablos semi-professional soccer club to capture in-game highlights and fan featured highlights of the game as a social media campaign, Howard reported recently. The company is also piloting a program with Major League Rugby to capture in-game highlights during the Houston SaberCats’ final match.

“Rugby is the next sport that we’ll be launching on Rematch and we’re planning an onsite activation at the MLR Championship in Rhode Island at the end of June,” she said.

The youth sports industry in the U.S. is Permian Basin-type stuff, with vast reserves and high economic potential. The youth sports industry was valued at $42.4 billion, according to WinterGreen Research. More than 45 million children participate in organized sports annually in the U.S., according to Aspen Institute.  

“I’ve had conversations with a gentleman who’s on the Texas TaeKwonDo board, and he said there is nothing in the martial arts space for visibility of the sport,” Howard said. “He said that parents are craving something like this for their kids and for their sports.

Howard previously was the COO of Fort Worth-based Valor, a specialty asset management company with expertise in providing mineral management and oil and gas outsourcing. A former basketball player at the University of Portland, she had assistant coaching stints at University of California at San Diego, Utah State, and Fresno State before rising to associate head coach for the TCU women’s basketball team.

Today, she is in a different industry but still building teams and programs.
