Is there a geneology service that does not store your data?

Any kind of storage is a non-starter.

If you mean just DNA analysis I suppose that's possible, but unlikely. Genealogy involves your links to specific other people and thus is impossible without storing data.

Isn’t the whole point of such a service to store your data? To make it possible for others (genetically) related to you, to find you?

signal does some hash-based matching of your contacts without storing your contacts

(but also re 'whole point', not sure about split btwn people who want their own genetic profile vs searching for long-lost twin)

What kind of genealogy service could you provide if you did not store users' data?

This has to arrive in the next ten years or so, off the cloud - test at home.

[GnarfGnarf]

The whole point of DNA testing in genealogy is to quantify your connections with other people. So an isolated home test would be of no benefit.

every saas should have a byo storage option
