The Don’t Sell My DNA Act aims to protect genetic information during bankruptcy proceedings.
The Don’t Sell My DNA Act amends title 11, United States Code, to safeguard genetic information in bankruptcy cases. It mandates that any use, sale, or lease of genetic information must be preceded by written notice to the affected individuals. Additionally, it requires trustees or debtors in possession to delete genetic information from the estate unless all affected parties, including non-parties, have given written consent post-bankruptcy filing. This act ensures that genetic information is not improperly used or sold during bankruptcy proceedings.
