Some things deserve
a little more care.
How Everletter passes memories to the people you choose.
Your choices come first.
You can save letters, photos and voice notes privately. Creating an account, adding a person, or preparing a memory does not send that memory.
To activate a plan, invite two trusted contacts and wait for both to accept. Then give your explicit authorization in My wishes.
- 1Choose & prepare
Decide who each memory is for, mark it prepared, and select a 14, 30 or 60-day waiting period. Drafts are excluded.
- 2Two independent confirmations
Both accepted trusted contacts must confirm the death. A report requires supporting evidence. Contacts cannot read your memories through their role.
- 3Human evidence review
Everletter’s owner reviews the report, records the checks made and approves or declines it. The service does not automatically establish that a person has died.
- 4Warnings & time to stop
The waiting period starts after your warning email is delivered to your mail server. A further reminder must also be delivered. Delivery does not mean that you opened or read either email.
- 5A final approval
After the full waiting period, the owner reviews again and explicitly approves release. Recipients get private links and verify their email with a one-time code before viewing only their intended memories.
You can stop a mistake.
A missed check-in never triggers delivery. Confirming a real check-in, editing your collection while a report is open, pausing your plan, or confirming a stop link halts a release and revokes further recipient access.
Changing saved wishes pauses your authorization. A trusted contact can also withdraw their role. Copies already downloaded by a recipient cannot be recalled.
Privacy & keeping your own copy.
Account access controls protect collections. Everletter does not offer end-to-end encryption. Release recipients see only the reviewed copies intended for them, and those copies are removed from active release storage when a release is stopped.
Supporting evidence is accessible to the owner for review. Documents are removed from active storage 90 days after the case closes or releases. Review and delivery records are retained to explain decisions and diagnose problems.
You can download your collection. Recipients can also download their released keepsakes. Keep an independent copy of irreplaceable memories: there is no funded long-term continuity guarantee or automatic transfer to another provider in place.
This service depends on working contact addresses, email delivery, the scheduler and human review. It cannot promise a delivery date or replace a will or an executor’s instructions.
