Is an Embark DNA test safe to do or is a dog's breed put into a public database where landlords could turn my dogs down?

I know this is a stupid question but I thought I would ask for peace of mind. I really want to use an Embark DNA test on my 2 pittie mixes to know what breeds are in them. Their ad..option paperwork and vet paperwork says lab mix currently. I am currently Not looking to rent anywhere with restrictions or use house insurance with restrictions but you never know about future!

If I got them DNA tested is that put into a database where a landlord/insurance company could see under my name and discriminate against breed if they cane back 50% pit? Big guy definitely looks pittie, he is an ESA. My smaller girl looks enough like a pittie but is probably small enough to never raise concerns.

Please help! THIRD time having to send in ID for verification. This is ridiculous!

I applied for Savor card, sent picture of ID during application and was approved. I received card in the mail. Then they put account on hold and asked for ID again AND a bank statement. Now they are asking for ID a third time to lift some restriction due to a really old checking account from over 5 years ago with an old phone number. This feels very shady. I have 4 other credit cards who never did this.

Is there a number to reach anyone in USA??

Does a ACA Marketplace Plan (bronze) still fully cover a bisalp?

Blue Cross Bronze plan. Getting conflicting info whether a bisalp is fully covered, whether deductible must be met first etc. Is there any definite, current info? I'm very confused.

Best Sensitive Stomach Food?- Pro Plan Sensitive Stomach vs Science Diet Sensitive Stomach for looser than desired stools

Title. Basically which is better? Just seeking opinions. I have read so much conflicting info! One of my dogs has had loose stools since she was a puppy. No concerns from the vet but it is messy and hard to pick up. I'm moving in with someone and need to pick up poop vs having a fenced yard. I have also noticed that her loose stools were causing anal gland issues. Vet approved psyllium husk but it only works sporadically, pumpkin did absolutely nothing.

They are both currently eating Purina One lamb rice. Any preference between Pro Plan vs Science Diet sensitive? Any other brands to consider that are not extremely expensive? (Not Iams as they both hate it)

One dog is not quite 2 years old, 48 pounds pittie mix with sensitive stomach/loose stool Other dog 3 years old, 68 pounds pittie mix with sensitive skin. I was thinking of buying a food that could help their needs simultaneously.

Note- I am ONLY looking for advice on dry dog food not raw or homemade Please!

I have never had this happen with any other credit card company! I applied for a Savor card and was approved but had to send pic of license...ok did that. Then they called a family members number (shows in public records i guess?) and left a code on VM for me to call back. Ok did that and they said I was verified. They send me the card in the mail but when I tried to sign up apparently they have a really old checking account on file with an old number I no longer have. I try to get code with current numbers and it gives the standard error code. I call and they said I need to send picture of license Again along with a bank statement. Ok did that. Now it is still not resolved, my account is "restricted" and customer service keeps transferring and nobody can help. Is there another line with US reps or a higer up team that can do something?? This is really ridiculous.

*Also no my number is NOT in my name. I am on a family account and don't have numbers in my name thanks to my insane, stalker, dangerous ex...so if they demand a number in my name...nope I won't use them!

I'm new to Prolific and learning how everything works. I started seeing the AI Video evaluations. At first I read these as wanting my opinion since some word the question as a personal preference. I picked up on obvious better videos if one was distorted or had bad audio. I got the standard "manual review" warning. I also must have taken too long on one because I got another message saying I provided "low number of responses" Then I went and read a little more about these. I started being very selective, and was really trying my best. I got a 3rd "manual review" message despite my best efforts and I'm really upset. After the day I received the 3rd message I only sporadically see the studies in low numbers vs 100s of them. Is 3 too many warnings and I'll be booted out completely?

Any tips to do better or specific studies of this nature to avoid?
