Perguntas Frequentes

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Sim. O Gene Pool é coberto pela HIPAA sob o BAA assinado. Os dados genéticos são criptografados e armazenados separadamente das informações do perfil. Suas consultas de doador/receptor são privadas - reveladas apenas para as pessoas que você escolher explicitamente para enviar mensagens.

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.
