YOUR PLAN · VERIFICATION POLICY

The rules that decide if, when, and to whom your plan is opened.

No item is released unless every required signal is true. Defaults are conservative; you can loosen them per recipient or per item.

Core verification

RULES THAT MUST ALL BE TRUE

Two trusted-verifier confirmations

Each verifier confirms independently. Confirmation is gated by ID match + relationship confirmation.


Death certificate uploaded & reviewed

Reviewed by the LovedForward team for issuing-authority match and state validation.


Manual admin signoff

A human at LovedForward signs off after reviewing the case. No automation can override this.


Waiting period after signoff

Final pause before any data is released. You can cancel during this window.

Incapacity rules

FOR MEDICAL EMERGENCIES — OPTIONAL

Allow temporary access for spouse during incapacity

Sam can request access to limited categories (medical directive, insurance, primary care contact) without full verified release.


Require medical-provider confirmation

Either a hospital case manager or your primary doctor must confirm in writing.

RECOMMENDED · ALL ON

Conservative defaults

All four checks active, 48-hour waiting period, incapacity rules limited. Most members keep this.

What we'll never do

  • · Release anything based on a missed login
  • · Release anything based on social signals or news reports
  • · Release anything based on a single confirmation
  • · Bypass these rules under "exigent circumstances"
  • · Let a court order us to release without notifying you first if alive

Emergency cancel

If a release is in progress and you're still here, use "I am alive" from any signed-in device. It cancels the release in one tap and pages the LovedForward team to call you within an hour.
