Corporate Responsibility at Ancestry®
We are committed to creating more connected and resilient communities through our diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, privacy and data stewardship policies, sustainability efforts, and community impact programs.
“We are proud of our progress, and we recognize there is still more to do. Ancestry remains committed to using our resources to build a more connected, resilient and sustainable future for generations to come.”
Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
In 2021 we declared a bold vision — to help everyone easily discover, craft and connect around their family story. We are committed to fostering a more diverse, equitable, and inclusive Ancestry community and developing product experiences that meet the needs of our diverse customers globally.
A Foundation of trust
Over the past 40 years, we have built trusted relationships with millions of people who have chosen us as the platform for discovering, preserving, and sharing the most important information about themselves and their families. Protecting our customers’ data and their privacy is our top priority.
Creating a more sustainable future for generations to come
In order for future generations to thrive and make history, we must also protect the planet. That is why we have made a commitment to cut Ancestry’s carbon emissions by maintaining an average of 5% in annual emissions reduction through 2025. We are committed to transitioning to the use of recycled materials in all AncestryDNA kits and are rolling out new packaging that will cut waste-to-landfill by 35%. This is just the start, and we will continue to invest in our business operations to build a more sustainable world.
Community Impact at Ancestry®
We’re mobilizing Ancestry’s workforce and products to build more connected and resilient communities by
preserving and amplifying at-risk history, empowering the next generation of history makers, and supporting
our employees and the causes they care about.
