privacy

[Manuela Lanzafame]

Goodmorning, 

we are working with patients data and according to European law for data privacy, we could not upload on external server sequence data. We use IGV with our .BAM file. The question is: if I use the desktop application data are run locally in my computer or are they anyway uploaded on IGV server? 

Thank you

Manuela

Nothing is uploaded from the client computer by IGV desktop or IGV Webapp,  all files are loaded into the application running on the client computer.   IGV can download files from external servers, but there is never any upload.
