Privacy of this register
As we are a private donor and recipient community the donor and recipient are already known to each other from the start unlike your traditional clinic setting
Any and all information provided to Sperm Donation World in our register is purely for the safety of our members and the donor conceived and will never be released to any third parties / governments / donors / recipients / siblings / donor conceived without explicit consent from all involved, keep in mind that parents of donor conceived already know who the donor is before birth and usually donors and recipients stay in contact.
Our group only facilitates contact between members and is not responsible for regulation for what happens between private consenting individuals.

Our group only facilitates contact between members and is not responsible for regulation for what happens between private consenting individuals.
We have taken appropriate steps to allow recipients to post their live births, this is an optional form but we highly encourage all recipients with live births to participate for the safety of their children and the safety of all other potential siblings.
The primary purposes for this register
- To have statistical values to the group and the donors of the group
- To allow for some form of record keeping in an un-regulated space where private donations have not been able to use the formal state based registers
- To allow admins of the groups to identify large number donors more effectively and to talk to them if we see large numbers about what systems they personally have in place to ensure all families they are donating to are aware of each other, It is strongly advised that large number donors to have their own registers and that they share their registers live with their recipients and run facebook mothers groups as these are responsible measures to eliminate accidental inappropriate sibling interactions.
All data submitted on this form is private.
You are welcome to post your historical births founded from the group on the register, even if you were/are from another group you are still free to submit as our register will act as a home for all private donor births where we cannot use the state based registers.
