Your privacy matters to us. Please review our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference, for information about how we collect, use, and disclose personal information.

We may update these Terms from time to time in our sole discretion. When we do, we will post the revised Terms through the Service and update the “Last updated” date. In cases of material changes, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you (e.g., by email or in-product notice). Unless otherwise stated, revised Terms become effective when posted, and your continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. Disputes arising before the effective date will be governed by the version in effect at the time the dispute arose.
- Additional Terms
Your use of certain features or offerings may be subject to supplemental terms, policies, or rules (e.g., the Platform/Application Consent, Mobile Messaging Terms, or other feature-specific terms). Those supplemental terms are incorporated by reference and will control to the extent of a conflict with these Terms.

- Arbitration Agreement & Class Action Waiver
- Agreement to Arbitrate. You and Evo DNA agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service (collectively, “Disputes”) will be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, except that either party may: (i) bring an individual action in small claims court; and (ii) seek injunctive or other equitable relief in court for alleged infringement or misappropriation of intellectual property rights. The Federal Arbitration Act governs interpretation and enforcement of this Section.
- Class Action Waiver. YOU AND EVO DNA AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS OR PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING.
- Procedures; Rules. Arbitration will be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator. The arbitrator will apply the internal laws of the State of Florida (without regard to conflict-of-laws principles) consistent with the FAA and applicable statutes of limitations, and may award any relief available in court (except punitive or exemplary damages to the extent disclaimed herein). Before initiating arbitration, the parties agree to attempt in good faith to resolve the Dispute within 60 days after written notice.
- Venue; Hearings. The arbitration will take place in Broward County, Florida, or another location mutually agreed by the parties. If the value of relief sought is $10,000 or less, either party may elect arbitration to be conducted based on written submissions and/or by teleconference, subject to the arbitrator’s discretion.
- Confidentiality. The parties agree to maintain the confidentiality of the arbitration proceedings and award, except as required by law.
- Fees. Payment of AAA fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. Each party bears its own attorneys’ fees unless applicable law provides otherwise.

- Waiver. Any waiver must be in writing and signed by the waiving party. Failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver.
- Severability. If any provision is unlawful, void, or unenforceable, it will be deemed severed and will not affect the validity of the remaining provisions.
- Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms without restriction.
- No Agency. No joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between you and Evo DNA as a result of these Terms or your use of the Service.
- Headings. Headings are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation.

Platform / Application Consent
Last updated: September 29, 2025
This Platform Consent explains how the Evo DNA Application works and describes benefits, risks, and limitations. Capitalized terms have the meanings given in the Terms of Use or Privacy Policy.
Key Terms
- Evo DNA Products: Insights, reports, supplements, meals, and other offerings that may use portions of your Genetic Information.
- Genetic Information: Your genotype data and interpretations derived from files you upload or otherwise provide.
- Self‑Reported Information: Non‑genetic data you provide (e.g., wellness, lifestyle, ethnicity, behaviors).
- Evo DNA Application: The Evo DNA website (including my.evo-dna.com) and processes used to store and process your Genetic Information.
Purpose
Evo DNA aims to help people understand themselves using genetics-informed insights. Through the Application you can purchase and use Evo DNA Products, each of which will describe what information it uses and what you can expect to receive.
Using the Application
- Uploading Your Genetic File. To use genetics-driven features, you must upload your genetic file in a supported format.
- Selecting Products. You choose which Products to use and, by doing so, authorize the use of relevant portions of your Genetic Information for that Product’s features.
- Self‑Reported Information. We may ask for additional information (e.g., surveys) to personalize insights or support features. Providing such information is optional but may improve your experience.
Quality, Research, and Aggregation
To improve the Application, Evo DNA may combine de‑identified Genetic Information and Self‑Reported Information from many users into aggregated datasets (“Aggregated Genetic Information”). Aggregated datasets do not contain information reasonably capable of identifying you. We use these datasets for internal purposes, business analytics, and to enhance the Application. See our Privacy Policy for more details.
Closing Your Account
You may stop using the Application at any time and may request account closure as described in the Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. Closing your account will remove access to your Products and stored data within the Application going forward. We retain archived records as required by law and our retention policies. If you later return, you will need to create a new account and re‑upload your genetic file.
Benefits
You may learn information about yourself that is educational or interesting and that could inform wellness‑related decisions. Benefits vary by user and by Product, and may evolve as additional Products become available.
Risks
You may learn information you did not anticipate and may find upsetting. Because relatives share DNA, results may have implications for family members. Consider consulting a physician, genetic counselor, or mental health professional. Laws such as the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA) limit certain uses of genetic information by employers and health insurers, but do not apply to all entities (e.g., life, long‑term care, or disability insurers). Know your state’s laws and share your information cautiously.
There is a risk of unauthorized access to data despite our safeguards. We may disclose information when legally compelled (see Privacy Policy). Each Product has specific limitations and risks—review them carefully.
Limitations
- Evo DNA stores your genotype file; some insights may require data your file does not contain.
- Genetics is only part of the picture; environment and lifestyle often play larger roles.
- Most traits are probabilistic, not deterministic.
- Knowledge evolves; we may update interpretations as science advances.
- Not all risk variants or genes are included, and errors can occur in third‑party sequencing or during ingestion. We employ quality controls but cannot guarantee perfection.
- In some cases, we may be unable to read or process your file due to format or technical constraints.
