There&#x27;s a ton of research into genomic privacy, and some ideas where a third party hosts encrypted genomic data. The parties interested in the data don&#x27;t see it, they send their query to the third party, the third party runs it and returns the results.<p>However, it&#x27;s yet unclear whether the transmission of the results (&quot;your DNA of interest is contained in your person of interest&#x27;s DNA&quot;) already counts as the transmission of personal data. I&#x27;d say it is personal data, making the whole enterprise moot.
