What is Gene Pool?
+
Gene Pool is a platform connecting sperm donors with intended recipients and co-parents. We help people building non-traditional families find compatible partners - verified, screened, and matched on genetic + lifestyle compatibility rather than romantic chemistry.
Who is Gene Pool for?
+
Single women and same-sex couples seeking sperm donors. Sperm donors looking for recipients (known-donor arrangements). People interested in platonic co-parenting partnerships. We support all family configurations.
Wie screenen Sie Spender?
+
All donors complete a profile with verified identity, health history, education, family background, and personality information. If people choose to share DNA data, the platform uses it as compatibility context before introductions.
Was ist der Unterschied zwischen bekannter und anonymer Spende?
+
Known-donor arrangements (the focus of Gene Pool) mean both parties know each other's identity and may have an ongoing relationship - anything from annual updates to active co-parenting. Anonymous donation through clinics is a different model not directly supported here, though clinic-mediated cycles can use Gene Pool donors.
Ist ein Gentest erforderlich, um Genpool zu nutzen?
+
No. You can create a profile and search without uploading DNA. DNA data is optional and is used only when you want extra compatibility context.
Wie funktioniert die Co-Elternschaftsvermittlung?
+
Co-parenting matches go beyond donor selection - they pair people who want to actively share parenting responsibilities without being romantically partnered. Compatibility looks at parenting philosophy, location proximity, financial stability, family-of-origin support, and long-term agreement on schooling, religion, and health decisions.
Sind meine Daten privat und sicher?
+
Ja. Genpool ist durch eine unterzeichnete BAA HIPAA-konform. Genetische Daten werden verschlüsselt und getrennt von den Profilinformationen gespeichert. Ihre Spender-/Empfängeranfragen sind privat - sie werden nur Personen mitgeteilt, denen Sie explizit eine Nachricht senden.
Was ist mit rechtlichen Vereinbarungen?
+
Gene Pool doesn't draft legal agreements but strongly recommends a known-donor or co-parenting agreement (jurisdiction-dependent) be in place before conception. We can refer to family-law attorneys experienced in donor agreements.
