• As indicated above you have a real
insurance policy backing you not a
"Service Guarantee" from some of the
other services. From some of their websites
you will find
the following definition of what a
$1,000,000 service guarantee is.
"
Our service guarantee is simple, but
it is limited. We will pay up to $1,000,000 to cure the failure or defect
in our service, per member, per lifetime
for all incidents in the aggregate,
regardless of circumstance (*In
North Carolina, we will make payments to
professionals we choose). We will not
reimburse special, incidental, indirect
or consequential damages, such as lost
wages or profits, loss of business, or
lost opportunities. Other than our
service guarantee, we make no
representation or warranty about our
service of any kind, and we disclaim any
implied warranties outside of our
service guarantee, such as a warranty of
merchantability or fitness of our
service for any particular purpose."
• You can judge for yourself the
differences in a "Service Guarantee" and
insurance, and quite frankly our members
will have the ability to place a
"Security Freeze" on their Credit Report
quite easily and at a fraction of the
cost of what those services are asking
for. One of our roles is the education
of our members and you should be aware
that in the US
Congress is pressuring the three major
credit agencies to make these
theft-fighting measures cheaper and more
accessible to all consumers.
• Our servers are located in world class ISP data cages. The physical security encompasses both biometric (retinal scan and figure print identification) along with confirmed access rights of individuals wanting to enter the server room. No one may enter that does not provide proof of the above 3 security protocols
• The servers are backed up in several locations and our ISP has an extensive Disaster and Recovery plan in place. The only data that would be lost is the data from that day.
• Every member receives 250 Megs of storage for their photos or documents. Typical file sizes on average are approximately 300-500k per file. Since each member gets 250 Meg of complimentary disk space, you can upload approximately 830 files before you run out of space. You may also purchase another 5 GIGs at very reasonable rates. Consult your members' only section.
• The great thing about The Estate Vault is that you choose how you use it, desktop or web based. You can choose with categories you want to store on line and which things you may want to store on the desktop. The desktop data is fully encrypted and therefore very secure. To download the desktop, simply go to your member's area on the web site and click on My Preferences where you will find the link to download the desktop version. A special registration code will be needed and may be accessed as well in your member’s area under the “My Profile” tab.
• Your data would be lost if you did not save it, so back up your data either to the web or to a USB device or CD
• Yes you can. In fact you can choose which segments of your Estate Vault you would like to provide access rights to. You will find this capability under the “My Preferences” tab in your member’s area. They will be sent via email a special username and unique password.
• Simply, just pick the individual that you would like to remove and change the status from access to no access. You can do this at anytime and it will be effective immediately.
• No, you may choose what sections of your data anyone to whom you granted access may see.
• We are quite different in that we don't just provide document storage but also a way of inputting data from those documents and then help you simplify your life using that data for your everyday life. We also provide Identity Theft Insurance, Will and Legal Documents Creator, Home Inventory Directory, Account Aggregation and many more topics that those document storage companies do not provide.
• Not only do we track your portfolio, but we have the ability to track all of your assets and liabilities to provide you with a true net worth statement. Not like those budgeting websites that do a good job at helping you budget but they don’t help you look at all your assets and liabilities and then help you prepare for retirement or other financial needs.
• Absolutely, just click on the “Invite Friend” button found in your members only section and they will receive The Estate Vault invitation.
