A privacy-preserving biospecimen test kit kiosk and locker that stores retrieved data in a private digital wallet comprising:
- a plurality of locker boxes that each store a biospecimen test kit for purchase by a user who intends to maintain anonymity while providing a personal biospecimen to a biospecimen processing lab without revealing personal identity;
- a touchscreen that guides the user through a process of purchasing a particular type of biospecimen test kit and collecting the personal biospecimen in the biospecimen test kit purchased by the user, wherein the particular type of biospecimen test kit purchased by the user comprises one or more of a DNA kit, a RNA kit, a microbiome kit, and a COVID-19 kit;
- a camera that is used to scan a unique encoding on the biospecimen test kit purchased by the user;
- an air quality sensor that detects nearby air quality and includes air quality data as detected in a set of provenance data associated with the personal biospecimen provided by the user and collected in the biospecimen test kit purchased by the user;
- a temperature sensor that measures nearby temperature and includes temperature data as measured in the set of provenance data associated with the personal biospecimen provided by the user and collected in the biospecimen test kit purchased by the user;
- a humidity sensor that detects surrounding humidity and includes humidity data as detected in the set of provenance data associated with the personal biospecimen provided by the user and collected in the biospecimen test kit purchased by the user;
- a GPS sensor that calculates a present location and includes GPS location data as calculated in the set of provenance data associated with the personal biospecimen provided by the user and collected in the biospecimen test kit purchased by the user;
- a non-fungible token (NFT) associated with a public blockchain and which represents the personal biospecimen of the user and is created to include the set of provenance data associated with the personal biospecimen provided by the user and information from the unique encoding scanned on the biospecimen test kit purchased by the user;
- a printer that prints out a confirmation of a transaction for the purchase of the biospecimen test kit, the collection of the personal biospecimen in the biospecimen test kit, and the creation of the NFT, wherein the printer prints out the confirmation after the user places the biospecimen test kit with the collected personal biospecimen into a particular locker box in the plurality of locker boxes from which the user obtained the biospecimen test kit after purchase, wherein the transaction is written to a block in the public blockchain;
- a metal outer kiosk body that houses each of the plurality of locker boxes, the touchscreen, the camera, the printer, the GPS sensor, the air quality sensor, the humidity sensor, and the temperature sensor;
- and
- a base platform upon which the metal outer kiosk body stands.
