Many of us have information about assets, financial accounts, and personal data that we would like to see passed on privately to ours heirs that we may be hesitant to share before we have actually departed this world.

iGoodbye.com is a simple, easy to use and inexpensive service that holds your electronic documents in trust during your lifetime. iGoodbye.com is a kind of sudden-death insurance policy for information. Documents are released to the recipients you specify only after we verify that you have passed away.

You can store any file that you wish kept in trust until your death. People have many reasons to keep certain information private and do not wish this information to be given to heirs until they have passed away. We don’t just store wills and trusts. Examples could include the true value or location of paintings, antiques, stamps or other collectibles. It could be details about a family business or even personal material such as stored love letters or information about a child’s true parentage. Increasingly we are doing our banking, investing and communicating online. A document that lists all bank and investment accounts along with their username and password information would place immediate control of your assets in the hands of a spouse and child in the event of your death. Otherwise they might spend months petitioning this information from the appropriate authorities. Clients can leave a message, a recorded message or video, a list of instructions or details about their assets to heirs after their death, without having to give out this information before that time.

In this day and age of computer passwords and account numbers, knowledge is power, and many of us are hesitant to prematurely give this type of information even to trusted loved ones. However, if you got hit by a bus tomorrow, you’d probably want your wife or or your children to have that information.

We provide military grade encryption tools on our website that are very easy to use. Even better, do your own encryption. We can show you how.

When an heir contacts us seeking their documents, we request a death certificate and verify its authenticity by directly contacting local authorities. In addition we request proper ID to verify that the person contacting us is in fact your intended recipient.
