Gut Health Test provides an online platform that helps individuals purchase microbiome testing kits from independent laboratory providers.
Our role is to facilitate the purchase and connection between customers and a testing provider. The laboratory provider is responsible for the analysis of samples, preparation of reports, and any clinical or scientific interpretation of results.
For the purposes of UK data protection law, Gut Health Test acts as the data controller for personal data collected through this website relating to customer enquiries, purchases, and communications.
Independent laboratory providers may act as separate data controllers for personal data required to perform laboratory testing services.
We may collect and process several categories of personal data when you use our website or purchase a test kit.
This may include:
