Privacy Respecting DNA Sequencing?

Question

I want to sequence my DNA and get the results. But i do not want a company to keep a copy of it. Even if it assures me it will not share it, sell it or it will keep the data "anonymized". I want them to sequence it, give it and delete it. After all I'm paying for it. Extra points if i can be sure of it, like doing it at home, which I suspect we are still far away from that.

All of the major companies essentially use Illumina hardware, you can find private labs that will extract your raw data, but what do you plan to do with it?Without the data sets of Ancestry, 23andme, etc. the raw data isn't very useful for most consumers.
