What is a LifeProxy℠?

A LifeProxy is a trusted person — a spouse, sibling, attorney, or close friend — who you invite to access your LifeBytes℠ in an emergency. You control exactly what they can see and when they can see it.

Your LifeProxy receives an email invitation. Once they accept, they can access your information according to the permissions you set.

Your LifeProxy appears as "Pending"

After sending, your new LifeProxy will appear in the list with a Pending status. This means the invitation has been sent but they haven't accepted it yet. Once they click the link in their email and create an account, the status will update to Active.
