## What this site is
This site summarizes how laws treat parentage when conception occurs outside a licensed clinic or sperm bank—especially at-home artificial insemination (AI) and natural insemination (NI). Coverage emphasizes the United States (state-by-state), Canada (province-by-province), Mexico (state-by-state), Australia, the United Kingdom, and many other countries.

Map colors and status badges indicate whether statute or case law recognizes informal AI, whether physician/clinic involvement is required for donor non-parentage, and whether written agreements have defined legal effect.

## Key concepts (for retrieval)
- Informal sperm donation / known donor / peer-to-peer donation
- Artificial insemination (AI) vs natural insemination (NI)
- Donor non-parentage / parentage exemption
- Intent-based vs biology-based parentage
- Uniform Parentage Act (1973 / 2002 / 2017)
- Second-parent adoption, voluntary acknowledgment of parentage, pre-birth orders

## Important caveats
- Content is informational only and may contain errors or become outdated.
- Laws change; always verify primary statutes and consult a licensed attorney in the relevant jurisdiction.
- Health regulation of clinics is separate from parentage/support law.
- Natural insemination is almost never treated as protected “donation” under donor-exemption statutes.
