Hey, I totally get your concerns — trust is crucial with personal data. It's awesome, you've built your own dead man's switch on GitHub! Our encryption means we can’t access your info — it’s yours and your beneficiaries’. But if your setup works for you, that’s great. Thanks for sharing!

Can you explain how the encryption works, who holds the keys, etc in detail? Your website seems to be very light on details.

This is very high-level and doesn't actually answer the question asked.

I also don't see anything here regarding the decentralized blockchain storage you mentioned in another comment. How does that fit in here?

Private keys are generated locally from your security factors during setup. We’ll ensure the "How It Works" section is more detailed and add pages for live monitoring that display decentralized storage usage and access details.
