How DNA samples are handled, transported and protected after collection.
A typical scenario
A customer asks who handles their child's sample and how it is protected.
Controlled handling
Samples are sealed at collection and linked to the case through documentation; legal cases add chain-of-custody records.
Shipping responsibility
For mail-in kits, the sender remains responsible for samples until delivery is confirmed — see Shipping.
Privacy
Access to case information is limited to personnel involved in the requested service.
