Coming with your result

Find your relatives

A way to meet relatives you have never heard of, only if both sides say yes. Not live yet. This page explains the idea.

How it will work

1

You say yes, or you say nothing

Nothing is on by default. In your result you can choose to be found by relatives. If you do nothing, no one can find you.

2

We look for close matches

We compare your DNA only with other people who have also said yes. People who said no are never compared.

3

A match is shown to you alone first

You see that a possible relative exists and how close. You see no name, no photo and no contact detail.

4

Both sides say yes, then you meet

You can send a hello. Only if the other person also says yes do you both see each other's chosen name and a way to talk.

Our promises

  • Nobody is shown to anyone unless both said yes.
  • You can switch it off at any time, and your name disappears from every list.
  • You choose what is shown: a first name, a nickname, or nothing but a message.
  • We never sell this list and never use it to advertise to you.

What a match can and cannot tell

A match shows that two people share DNA in a way that fits a family link. It cannot name how you are related with certainty, and it never shows race, religion or any legal status.

This page is a plan, not a live feature. No real data is shown here.

Laboratory standards

Our DNA tests are run with our laboratory partners. These are the standards they work to.
