Clear expectations protect everyone.

What BeforeHand is

BeforeHand organizes your information, lets you choose who can see it and when, and supports a documented process for closing accounts and settling affairs after a verified life event. It is not a law firm, financial advisor, health-care provider, court, or executor, and using it is not a substitute for a will, power of attorney, or professional advice.

BeforeHand software is operated by SaariyS-II Corporation.

No authority created

Creating a plan, adding a person, or uploading a document does not grant legal authority. Authority depends on valid documents, applicable law, institutional requirements, and real-world facts. BeforeHand records and coordinates that authority; it does not create it.

Official records take priority

Your plan is an operational guide for the people you choose. It is not an insurance policy, an account, a beneficiary designation, or a legal document, and it does not change any of them. The official records held by your insurers, banks, pension and investment providers, and other institutions, and your signed legal documents, are what count. If anything in your plan differs from them, the official record takes priority.

Keeping your plan accurate is your responsibility as the plan owner. That includes making sure the beneficiaries, account details, and instructions you record match what your providers have on file, and updating your plan when they change. Suggested steps that BeforeHand offers are general starting points only; edit them to match your provider's actual process. BeforeHand does not check your plan against your providers' records and is not responsible for differences between the two.

Your account

You're responsible for keeping your sign-in credentials confidential, including any Google account you use to sign in and the security PIN that gates sensitive fields on your plan. Tell us immediately if you believe either has been compromised.

Text message verification codes

If you add a mobile number, you can choose to receive one-time verification codes by text message as an alternative to an authenticator app. You opt in only by checking the SMS consent box and requesting a code. BeforeHand sends security verification codes only when you request them; message frequency varies with your sign-in attempts. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to cancel or HELP for help, or contact us at hello@beforehandplan.com. Consent is not a condition of purchase.

BeforeHand does not share, sell, or provide your mobile phone number or messaging consent data to third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. This SMS program is not used for marketing, affiliate marketing, lead generation, or third-party promotion.

Life-event verification and account closure

Reporting a life event (such as incapacity or death) starts a review: a person you've designated evaluates real evidence before anything is treated as verified, and some events support a lighter-weight provisional verification while full verification is pending. Once fully verified, we may begin the account-closure process on your behalf for accounts you've recorded. Sending a closure notice on your behalf is not the same as an account being closed, and a task is only marked complete once that's actually confirmed.

Acceptable use

Don't use BeforeHand to impersonate someone, to gain access to a plan you haven't been given, or to attempt to bypass the access controls, encryption, or verification steps described here.

Service availability

We work to keep BeforeHand available, but we don't guarantee uninterrupted access, and parts of the service depend on third-party providers (including Google, Mailgun, Twilio, and Supabase) whose own availability we don't control.

Billing

Pricing, trial terms, and billing details will be completed here once finalized. Nothing in this section should be relied on until it is.

Disclaimers and liability

BeforeHand is provided on an "as is" basis. To the fullest extent the law allows, we disclaim warranties beyond what we've stated here, and our liability terms will be completed with qualified counsel before this section is relied on as binding.

Ending your account

You may stop using BeforeHand at any time; contact us to close your account and ask about what happens to your information afterward.

Governing law

The jurisdiction and dispute-resolution terms that apply here will be completed once the company's registered legal details are finalized.

Changes to these terms

If these terms change in a way that matters, we'll update this page and, for significant changes, tell you directly.

Before these terms are final

This page reflects the product's actual current design. It should still be completed for eligibility, billing, liability, and governing law with qualified counsel before it is presented as binding terms of service.
