The Keyholder® Security System
|
Here at LegalWills.ca,
we have developed the Keyholder® security
system to protect you from anyone accessing your documents and
information prematurely.
As a LegalWills.ca
member, you can specify up to 20 friends or
family members, each of whom will be given the power to access your
wishes when the time is right. For each person you identify, you can
specify exactly what specific information they can access, such as:
- your funeral wishes
- sending final messages that you have prewritten to your family
or friends
- the contents of your Last Will and Testament
- health care directives contained in your Living Will, if you are
unable to communicate them yourself
- your Power of Attorney document, which contains directions about
the handling of your finances if you are incapacitated
The Keyholder® system includes specific security mechanisms which
protect the secure integrity of your information and prevent
unauthorized premature access to your documents and services.
These mechanisms are fully customizable by you.
Here's how it works:
|
 |
 |
Step 1: |
You create your documents using the MyFuneral,
MyMessages, MyWill, MyPowerOfAttorney and other services, and grant at
least one close friend or family member to have future access to these
documents.
The documents are encrypted by the Keyholder® security system, stored
on the LegalWills.ca
secure server, and paper copies can also be printed. |
|
|
 |
Step 2: |
The individuals you specified are notified of their
responsibilities and given a secure ID to be used for accessing your
documents at the appropriate time.
If you wish, you can also send each of these people their secure ID
printed onto a plastic wallet card for safe keeping. |
|
|
|
|
Step 3: |
You can continue to make unlimited updates to your
documents on the LegalWills.ca
server. |
|
|
 |
Step 4: |
When you become mentally incapacitated or pass away,
your designated individuals request to access your documents on the
server.
To prevent premature access to your documents, the Keyholder®
security system sends an automatic notification to your email address,
explaining who is attempting to access your documents. |
|
|
 |
Step 5: |
If you do not respond to the notification within a
period of time specified by you, then the Keyholder® security system
decrypts your documents and makes them accessible by your designated
friends or family members. |
