Legal Compliance
Understand how Inheribase integrates with estate law and legal requirements.
Legal & Compliance
Inheribase is designed to complement — not replace — traditional estate planning. We provide tools and documentation that work alongside wills, trusts, and powers of attorney to ensure your digital estate is properly addressed.
Important: Inheribase provides tools for digital asset protection and transfer. We are not a law firm and do not provide legal advice. Consult your estate attorney to integrate Inheribase into your comprehensive estate plan.
Working with Estate Law
Digital assets require special handling in estate planning because they involve terms of service, encryption, and anti-hacking laws. Inheribase provides a technical mechanism to transfer access to these assets, but the legal right to that access should still be established in your estate documents.
We recommend specifically mentioning your Inheribase vault in your will or trust to authorize your executor or trustee to access and distribute its contents.
Court Orders & Subpoenas
Due to our Zero-Knowledge Architecture, Inheribase cannot access or decrypt your files, even under compulsion by a court order or subpoena.
If we receive a valid legal request, we can only provide:
- Account creation dates and metadata
- Billing and transaction records
- Encrypted data blobs (which are unreadable without your passkey or guardian shares)
Terms of Service & Privacy
