Hello,
The information is given when you pass your mouse over the dots:
- A green dot is for a high accuracy,
- An orange dot is for a medium accuracy: shared DNA suggests a distant relationship but it can be due to coincidence,
- A red dot is for a low accuracy: shared DNA does not allow to say if it’s a distant relationship or if it’s due to coincidence.
Best,
