← The RecordIn Case of Need

Decided in advance

In Case of Need.

The one thing paper can’t do: you choose who can reach your Record, and exactly how much of it they see.

Everything your people need to help you — nothing a thief could use against you.

Who can currently see what

Plainly listed, so there are never any surprises.

…

Designate someone

A sibling might see everything. A neighbour might see only Home and Start Here. It’s entirely your call, and reversible.

You can change or revoke it later, whichever you choose now.

About credentials

No passwords, Social Security numbers, government IDs, or card numbers are stored here — by design. Those belong in your password manager, which has its own emergency-access process. Your Digital Life section records which manager you use and how a trusted person reaches it. That handoff is the safe version of what a paper organiser asks you to write down.

This organises contacts and locations. It isn’t legal, medical, financial, or tax advice.
