What happens if I move or the ownership of the dog changes or if my dog dies?

It is important that you notify Cellmark of any changes of details including a change of address or ownership. You can also request that the DNA profile is anonymised and your personal data removed if you no longer want your, or your dog’s details to be held, for example if your dog dies.
