DATA MORTIS

WHAT
This ‘memorial’ stick contains data that you have selected to share with your loved ones when you die.

WHY
The average internet user has around 90 online accounts. What to do with these after death? Some information you want to keep alive, other things you would rather see deleted. ‘Data Mortis’ is an internet service that takes care of such personal online data in an appropriate manner.

HOW
Apart from the function that ends all accounts with one click, the system offers a cloud for documents that you want to safeguard. After your passing, these files are transferred to the memory stick. Those who find it in the mail can plug in to remember you.

QUOTE
It is hard to delete a loved one’s online presence.
