Terms of Service

Last updated: September 20, 2026

1. Service Description

Lazarus Vault provides a secure "dead man's switch" service that delivers your files and messages to designated recipients if you fail to respond to periodic check-in emails within a threshold you configure.

2. Account Responsibilities

  • You must provide accurate information when creating your account.
  • You are responsible for keeping your password secure.
  • You are responsible for the content you upload to your vault.
  • You must not use the service for illegal purposes or to store illegally obtained content.
  • You are responsible for ensuring your check-in email address remains valid and accessible.

3. Subscriptions and Billing

  • Paid subscriptions auto-renew annually until canceled.
  • You may cancel at any time; your subscription remains active until the end of the billing period.
  • Payments are processed through Stripe. We do not store your credit card information.
  • Prices may change with 30 days' notice. Existing subscriptions are not affected until renewal.
  • The free tier is available indefinitely at no cost.

4. Service Availability

We strive for 99.9% uptime but do not guarantee uninterrupted service. We are not liable for service interruptions due to hosting provider issues, natural disasters, or circumstances beyond our control. We recommend keeping backup copies of critical documents.

5. Limitation of Liability

Lazarus Vault is not liable for:

  • False triggers (delivery caused by missed check-ins when you were actually fine).
  • Failure of recipients to access or download your files within the 30-day window.
  • Loss of data due to server failure, hacking, or other events (though we take extensive precautions).
  • The contents of messages or files you upload.
  • Any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages.

Our total liability is limited to the amount you have paid us in the 12 months preceding any claim.

6. No Legal Advice

Lazarus Vault is a message delivery and file storage service, not a legal document preparation service. We do not provide legal advice. For legally binding documents like wills and trusts, consult a qualified attorney in your jurisdiction.

7. Acceptable Use

  • You must not upload content that is illegal, infringes copyright, or violates others' rights.
  • You must not attempt to access other users' data.
  • You must not use the service to send spam or malicious content.
  • You must not attempt to disrupt or compromise the service.

8. Account Termination

You may delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms. If your account is terminated for cause, no refund is provided.

9. Changes to Terms

We may update these terms with 30 days' notice. Continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the new terms.
