About

They are a genetics-based health company that combines advanced genetic testing with financial technology to create Africa’s first digital Bio-Asset Bank. They aim to give you a platform to unlock, interpret, and protect your genetic information. Their range of easy to use lifestyle DNA tests will unlock your body’s hidden story and empower your journey to living a happier, healthier, and more fulfilling life. They know that when it comes to health the one-size-fits-all approach can limit individuals to reach their full potential.

At knowU DNA they take pride in protecting your data and privacy. To fully take ownership of your story, you need to take ownership of your most precious asset, your DNA. They know how important your DNA is to you therefore we have the following measures in place to ensure the privacy and security of your data. Firstly, your data never leaves the borders of our country. Their state-of-the-art laboratory is located within South Africa. This allows them to take control of your sample as no across the border shipping is involved. Why is that important? As soon as your sample is exported, you completely lose control over it and there is no guarantee as to what it will be used for. Moreover, it becomes nearly impossible to get your sample back into the country due to various local and international laws.

They make use of bar codes to connect all your personal information such as name, address, etc to your sample. Your sample is therefore anonymized and the laboratory as well as the courier company have no way to identify an individual with that sample. The privacy of your DNA data is their pride therefore all their data are stored on secured servers. Your DNA and other personal information including medical history are digitally banked on a secure encrypted block-chain-enabled account. They do not share any data or personal information with third parties without your consent.

Their nutrition and wellbeing package is a 2-in-1 kit. In their easy to use kits, you would find a vial with a cotton swab. Rub the cotton swab in one of your cheeks and you are all set to go. They would collect your sample for analysis thereafter you would receive your personalized KnowU nutritional and wellbeing report through their mobile application.
