Terms & Conditions
Acceptance of Terms
Your use of iDNA services is subject to the terms of the legal agreement between you and iDNA set forth in these Terms of Service (“TOS”). Except as specified herein, these TOS apply to any use of the Services, including but not limited to a) submitting a urine, swab, or blood collection for lab processing, b) uploading a report of the lab results under a login on the iDNA website. In order to use the Services, you must first agree to the TOS. You may not use the Services if you do not accept the TOS. You can accept the TOS by (1) clicking to accept or agree to the TOS, where this option is made available to you by iDNA for any Service; or by (2) actually using the Services. In this case, you acknowledge and agree that iDNA will treat your use of the Services as acceptance of the TOS from that point onward. In addition, when using particular iDNA Services, you shall be subject to any guidelines or rules applicable to such services that may be posted from time to time. All such guidelines or rules are hereby incorporated by reference into the TOS. iDNA also may offer other services from time to time that are governed by different terms of service.
Description of the Services
The Services include access to the iDNA public website and lab testing services, which may include but not limited to the analysis of your urine, swab and blood samples. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, each new feature that augments or enhances the current Service shall be subject to the TOS. You acknowledge and agree that the Services are provided “AS-IS” and are based on the current state of the art of lab testing and technology in use by iDNA at the time of the purchase or viewing. As research progresses and scientific knowledge and technology evolve, iDNA is constantly innovating in order to provide the best possible experience for its users. You acknowledge and agree that the form and nature of the Services which iDNA provides may change from time to time without prior notice to you. As part of this continuing innovation, you acknowledge and agree that iDNA may stop (permanently or temporarily) providing some Services (or any features within the Services) to you or to users generally at iDNA’s sole discretion, without prior notice to you. You may stop using the Services at any time. iDNA assumes no responsibility for the use of Services outside the terms of this TOS or other applicable terms.
In order to use the Services, you must obtain Internet access, either directly or through devices that access web-based content, and pay any service fees associated with such access. You are solely responsible for paying such fees. In addition, you must provide all equipment necessary to make such Internet connection, including a computer and modem or other access device. You are solely responsible for providing such equipment.
Risks and Considerations Regarding iDNA Services
Once you obtain your lab results, the knowledge is irrevocable. You should not assume that any information we may be able to provide to you will be welcome or positive. You may learn information about yourself that you do not anticipate. This information may evoke strong emotions and has the potential to alter your life. You may discover things about yourself that trouble you and that you may not have the ability to control or change.
The laboratory may not be able to process your sample, and the laboratory process may result in errors. The laboratory may not be able to process your sample if the urine, swab or blood collection was not administered correctly, or the results from processing do not meet our standards for accuracy. If the initial processing fails for any of these reasons, iDNA will determine whether to send another kit to the user to collect a second sample or to refund the amount paid to iDNA, less shipping and handling. If iDNA opts to send another sample collection kit and iDNA’s attempts to process the second sample are unsuccessful, iDNA will not send additional sample collection kits. It will be up to iDNA to determine if there will be a complete refund of the amount paid to iDNA, less shipping and handling. Even for processing that meets our high standards, a small, unknown fraction of the data generated during the laboratory process may be uninterpretable or incorrect (referred to as “Errors”). As this possibility is known in advance, users are not entitled to refunds where these Errors occur. You should not make decisions solely on the basis of information from iDNA. Make sure to discuss your test results with a physician or other health care provider before you act upon the information resulting from iDNA services.
Furthermore, testing information that you choose to share with your physician or other health care provider may become part of your medical record and through that route be accessible to other health care providers and/or insurance companies in the future, therefore no longer being kept.
iDNA services are for informational and educational use only. We do not provide medical advice. The testing information provided by iDNA is for research, informational, and educational use only. Some methods used to test have not been clinically validated, and the technology we use, which is the same technology used by the research community, to date has not been widely used for clinical testing. The services are not intended to be used by the customer for any diagnostic purpose and are not a substitute for professional medical advice. You should always seek the advice of your physician or other health care provider with any questions you may have regarding diagnosis, cure, treatment, mitigation, or prevention of any disease or other medical condition or impairment or the status of your health.
iDNA does not endorse, warranty or guarantee the effectiveness of any specific course of action, resources, tests, physician or other health care providers, drugs, biologics, medical devices or other products, procedures, opinions, or other information that may be mentioned on our website.
If we provide to you on our website any recommendations based on your test information, this information is intended for informational purposes only and for discussion with your physician or other healthcare provider.
While we our lab is licensed in Washington as a clinical laboratory, not all jurisdictions require our services to be subject to license. Therefore, we are not universally licensed by all state, federal, or international authorities for testing conducted for health and disease-related purposes. In addition, there are certain jurisdictions in which we do not offer our services because we do not have required licenses.
Kit orders can be cancelled only prior to shipment. Once shipped, kits cannot be refunded or returned. For the health and safety of our clients, iDNA does not accept or reuse returned kits.

Dispute Resolution
In the event of any dispute, claim, question or disagreement arising from or relating to this Agreement, or the relationship that results from this Agreement (a “Dispute”), the parties hereto shall use their best efforts to settle the Dispute. To this effect, the parties shall consult and negotiate with each other in good faith and, recognizing their mutual interests, attempt to reach a just and equitable solution satisfactory to both parties. If the parties do not reach such solution, then the Dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration in Dallas, Texas, in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”), subject to the limitations of this section. This agreement to arbitrate will be specifically enforceable under the prevailing law of any court having jurisdiction. Notice of a demand for arbitration shall be filed in writing with the other party hereto and with the AAA. To the extent permitted by law, any Dispute under this Agreement must be filed within one year in an arbitration proceeding. The one-year period begins when the claim or notice of dispute first could be filed. If a claim or dispute is not filed within one year, it is permanently barred.
The parties agree that one (1) arbitrator shall arbitrate the Dispute. The arbitrator shall be selected by the joint agreement of the parties, but if they do not so agree within twenty (20) days after the date of the notice of a demand for arbitration referred to above, the selection shall be made pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the AAA from the panels of business arbitrators maintained by the AAA. The decision of the arbitrator shall be made in writing, shall be final, judgment may be entered upon it in any court having jurisdiction thereof, and the decision shall not be subject to vacation, modification or appeal, except to the extent permitted by sections 10 and 11 of the Federal Arbitration Act, the terms of which sections the parties agree shall apply. Further, unless both you and we agree in writing otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The expenses of arbitration, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and the fees and expenses of the arbitrator, shall be shared equally by the parties.
Either party may bring a claim related to intellectual property rights, or seek temporary and preliminary specific performance and injunctive relief, in any court of competent jurisdiction, without the posting of bond or other security.
Changes to the Terms of Service
iDNA may make changes to the TOS from time to time. When these changes are made, iDNA will make a new copy of the TOS available on its website and any new additional terms will be made available to you from within, or through, the affected Services.
You acknowledge and agree that if you use the Services after the date on which the TOS have changed, iDNA will treat your use as acceptance of the updated TOS.
Violation or Suspected Violation of Terms of Service

Except for any disputes relating to intellectual property rights, obligations, or any infringement claims, any disputes with iDNA arising out of or relating to the Agreement (“Disputes”) shall be governed by Texas law regardless of your country of origin or where you access iDNA.
- Waiver. The failure of iDNA to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the TOS shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the TOS is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of the TOS remain in full force and effect.

- Section titles. The section titles in the TOS are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.
- Severability Clause. If any portion of these TOS is found to be unenforceable, the remaining portion will remain in full force and effect.

Lab Disclaimer
iDNA is partnered with Molecular Testing Labs™ (MTL), a CLIA certified and CAP accredited diagnostic testing laboratory specializing in the areas of Toxicology, Molecular Genetics, and Infectious Disease. The iDNA Test Kit is a comprehensive, at-home kit for testing sexually transmitted disease/infection (STDs). Using your self-collected samples, this screening kit can aid in detecting the following sexually transmitted organisms/infections:
Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Trichomonas vaginalis, Herpes Simplex Virus 2, Hepatitis C Virus, Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), Syphilis, Mycoplasma hominis, Mycoplasma genitalium, Ureaplasma urealyticum, and Ureaplasma parvum, and HPV16 and HPV18 while concurrently detecting the rest of the high risk types: 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, 66 and 68.
Results from this test kit are not intended to provide a medical diagnosis of infectious disease. Results from this test kit are strictly for screening purposes and are considered informative only. Use of this test kit and reported test results are not considered a medical treatment or a substitute for treatment by your doctor or health care provider. This test kit is not to be considered a replacement for consulting your doctor or health care provider. No guarantee of your personal health is given, implied or otherwise, based on the results provided by this test kit.
There is always chance for error to occur in high-complexity laboratory testing, however, MTL has implemented extensive measures in an effort to minimize the risk of making such errors. Testing errors yielding “False Positive” results suggest the presence of disease indicators when the patient is actually negative. Testing errors yielding “False Negative” results can have two possible meanings: 1) The patient/client is in fact positive for the infection, however, if tested early the body has not had time to produce detectable levels of disease indicators, or 2) The body has produced appropriate levels of disease indicators but testing has failed to detect them. Testing errors may also come from specimen loss, specimen deterioration or contamination, or unforeseen technical issues.
The client is responsible for packaging and shipping samples according to the provided instructions. Failure to follow these instructions may result in reduced sample yield, inability to process samples and perform testing, or outright rejection of samples provided.
Given the strictly informative nature of results from the iDNA Test Kit, MTL strongly encourages the client to seek further confirmatory testing. In addition, all clients should consult with their doctor or health care provider for test result interpretations, advice, and treatment options as necessary. When available, results from the iDNA Test Kit may be viewed on a web portal or sent via email as chosen by the client. As required by law, MTL will report positive test results to your local state health department (unless performed in a state that allows for anonymous STD testing).
All general inquiries concerning this product should be directed to the Molecular Testing Labs Customer Relations department at (360) 208-0752, Monday through Friday, 8am – 5pm (PST).
Liability
Molecular Testing Labs™ nor iDNA shall not be held liable to you, or anyone else, for loss or injury caused in the use of this test kit or information/test results provided. Also, in no event shall Molecular Testing Labs™ nor iDNA be held liable to you or anyone else for any decisions made or action taken or not taken by you in reliance on such information. As with any healthcare related product, you should always consult your healthcare provider prior to use.
