We are constantly seeking to improve our service and add value for our users, and today we have two new features to announce: secure file storage and Video Legacy Letters. We think these are important enhancements to the service, and they are being offered at no additional charge to our existing or new customers!
- File Storage - you can now keep a secure, encrypted copy of your most critical documents in your Locker. Examples of useful documents to store include your will, a property deed, stock certificates, and other “can’t lose” files. Each account holder (of a premium or lifetime account) can store as many as 10 files, of up to 5MB each (we plan to increase the number of files in the future).
- Video Letters – in addition to written Legacy Letters, you can now upload video messages as well. Each user (with a premium or lifetime account) can upload as many as 3 videos, and each file can be up to 20MB in size. Videos will be stored securely and individually encrypted, ensuring that only the intended recipient will be able to retrieve them, when the time comes. In the future we intend to allow direct recording from within the site, and will enable more than 3 videos per user.
Having a secure, digital copy of important documents (like your will for instance) can be extremely valuable. And Legacy Locker can be accessed and updated from anywhere in the world, so if you want to retrieve your document or update with a new copy, it’s easy to do from any computer, any time.
Legacy Letters offer a means for communicating with loved ones (like a spouse, a child, or a dear friend) one last time. Video is an even more personal medium than text-based letters, and allows your loved ones to see you one more time, hear your voice, and remember you the way you want them to. Each video is safely and securely stored, and can only be retrieved by the intended recipient.
Both of the new features are only available for paid account holders.
We think that these features add value to our service, and we’re excited to introduce the new functionality. We just launched two months ago, and we have many more ideas for new feature sets and tools. If you have ideas feel free to pass them on to us, we would love to hear from you. You can comment here on the blog, or send us an email at support [at] legacylocker [dot] com. We promise we read every email that comes in, and we get some of our best ideas from our customers. We thank you sincerely for your business.
-The Legacy Locker Team

With the file storage service are you able to keep track of if and when a stored file has been accessed? This would be important in the event that a client were to loose his/her original Will and the personal representative wanted to have the stored copy admitted to probate. They would have to prove that it had not been changed. If they were able to show, through your records, that it had not been accessed since the last upload, that could be very helpful.
Keep up the good work…..
