SharpGeneticsPersonalized Genetic Testing
Medical-grade genetic analysis performed in European laboratories in Spain. Full GDPR confidentiality. Clinically relevant information, not entertainment DNA tests.
Why Genetic Data Privacy Matters
Genetic data is the most sensitive personal information you can share. Unlike a password, it can never be changed. Unlike financial data, it defines who you are at a biological level — and who your descendants will be.
Risks of Non-EU DNA Tests
Many popular DNA tests process data outside the European Union, in jurisdictions with weaker protections. This means:
- Data may be stored indefinitely with no real right to deletion
- Genetic information may be resold to third parties (pharmaceutical companies, insurers)
- Consent may be vague or impossible to revoke
- In case of security breach, there's no effective legal recourse
Full GDPR Compliance
All genetic data is processed in accordance with the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) — the strictest data protection framework in the world.
No Data Sales
Your genetic data is never sold, shared, or used for third-party commercial purposes. Information is used exclusively for the requested analysis.
European Laboratories
Genetic analysis is performed in specialized laboratories in Spain (European Union), certified ISO 13485:2016 for in vitro medical devices.
Informed Consent
The process respects principles of transparency and informed consent. You know exactly what data is collected, how it's used, and you have full control over it.
Your Rights Under GDPR
As an EU citizen or resident, you benefit from concrete legal protections
SharpGenetics commitment: We respect all rights provided by GDPR. Data is not disclosed to third parties except in case of legal obligation. Deletion requests are processed promptly.

What Is SharpGenetics
SharpGenetics is a personalized genetic testing platform, designed for medical professionals and educated patients who want clinically relevant information, not entertainment DNA tests.
Decision Support Tool
SharpGenetics genetic tests are not substitutes for medical diagnosis. They are tools providing information about genetic predispositions, helping physicians and patients make informed decisions.
- Medically interpretable results
- Clinically validated algorithms
- Reports in 17 languages
Prevention Focus
The platform is oriented toward prevention and personalization. Understanding your genetic profile allows adaptation of lifestyle, nutrition, and treatments before problems arise.
- Personalized insights
- Lifestyle relevance
- Aesthetic and medical applicability
SharpGenetics Tests
Five test categories for personalizing nutrition, aesthetic treatments, anti-aging, and physical performance
Nutrigen
DNA-Based Personalized Nutrition
Genetic analysis of 384 genetic variations related to metabolism, nutrient absorption, and diet response. The most complete nutrigenetic test available on the market.
What It Analyzes
- 384 genetic variations analyzed
- Carbohydrate, lipid, and protein metabolism
- Food intolerances and sensitivities
- Response to physical exercise
- Recommendations from over 850 foods
What Makes It Different
Nutrigen analyzes a broader and more complex set of genetic markers than most nutrigenetic tests on the market, offering real personalization, not generic advice.
TrichoTest
Pharmacogenetics for Alopecia Treatment
Genetic test analyzing 48 genetic variations in 13 genes to personalize hair loss treatment. Demonstrated efficacy: response rates up to 91%.
What It Analyzes
- 48 genetic variations in 13 genes
- Response to minoxidil (SULT1A1 gene)
- Response to finasteride/dutasteride (SRD5A genes)
- Prostaglandin and inflammatory pathways
- Personalized treatment, not generic
What Makes It Different
The algorithmic structure and genetic marker combination used by TrichoTest are exclusively available through these partner laboratories in Spain.
TeloTest
Biological Age vs. Chronological Age
Telomere length measurement to quantify the degree of cellular aging. Longer telomeres are associated with increased longevity and delayed age-related diseases.
What It Analyzes
- Measurement via qPCR (polymerase chain reaction)
- Comparison with age reference values
- Complete assessment through anamnesis questionnaire
- Personalized anti-aging recommendations
- Repeatable test for monitoring over time
What Makes It Different
TeloTest provides not just telomere measurement, but also an automated algorithm that correlates results with medical history for concrete recommendations.
AcneTest
The Genetics Behind Clear Skin
Pharmacogenetic analysis of 180 genetic variations associated with acne, guiding personalized treatment selection for optimal results.
What It Analyzes
- 180 genetic variations analyzed
- Genes influencing sebum production
- Skin inflammatory response
- Skin barrier integrity
- Active ingredient and dosage recommendations
What Makes It Different
AcneTest examines 60 SNPs associated with immune, hormonal, metabolic, and skin barrier pathways — a structured approach rarely available in this form.
Sport Test
Athletic Performance Optimization
Analysis of 100 SNPs for understanding genetic predispositions related to physical performance, recovery, and injury risk.
What It Analyzes
- 100 SNPs comprehensively analyzed
- Endurance and strength capacity
- Recovery time
- Injury risk (COL1A1, COL5A1 genes)
- Training response
What Makes It Different
Sport Test provides guidance, not absolute predictions. It's an optimization tool for athletes who want to understand their body at the genetic level.

Frequently Asked Questions
What happens to my genetic data after analysis?
Genetic data is used exclusively for the requested analysis and stored in compliance with GDPR regulations. It is never sold, shared with third parties, or used for other commercial purposes. You have the right to request deletion at any time.
Where is the genetic analysis performed?
Analysis is performed in specialized laboratories in Spain (European Union), certified ISO 13485:2016 for medical devices. The laboratories use TaqMan® technology and NGS sequencing for maximum accuracy.
How long until I receive results?
Results are available approximately 2 weeks after sample receipt at the laboratory. They are accessible through the digital platform in 17 languages, in PDF and interactive versions.
Are genetic tests a medical diagnosis?
No. SharpGenetics genetic tests are decision support tools, not substitutes for medical diagnosis. Results provide information about genetic predispositions that must be interpreted by a medical professional.
What's the difference from entertainment DNA tests?
SharpGenetics tests are medical-grade analyses performed in certified European laboratories, with clinically validated algorithms and full GDPR compliance. They are not entertainment tests, but tools for informed health decisions.
Do I need to repeat the tests over time?
Most genetic tests analyze DNA that doesn't change throughout life — results remain permanently valid. The exception is TeloTest (telomere length), which can be repeated to monitor changes over time.
