Taking care of the people we love often begins long before they need our help. It starts with planning. It starts with intention. And it starts with the simple, human desire to leave behind clarity rather than confusion. At Crux Legacy we believe that preparing your legacy should feel empowering and comforting. It should help you organize your life in a way that brings peace of mind to you and to the people who matter most.
In a world where our memories, documents, and identities live across countless places, keeping everything safe and accessible is more important than ever. Crux Legacy was created to help you store, manage, and share your essential life information through a secure and private app. A key part of this process is choosing someone you trust. This person is your nominee.
What a Nominee really is
A nominee is a trusted individual you choose to receive your legacy only when the inevitable happens. Until that moment arrives, they cannot view, open, or access any of your documents, photos, videos, messages, or personal information stored in Crux Legacy.
This protection is essential. We understand that human relationships are delicate, and sometimes sharing sensitive information too early can create unnecessary pressure or awkward conversations. Crux Legacy is designed to keep your privacy intact while you are alive, giving you the freedom to organise, edit, and update your legacy at your own pace, without anyone seeing those changes.
Your nominee steps in only when the time is right, carrying forward your memories, documents, and wishes with respect and clarity. Their role is to ensure that everything you prepared reaches your loved ones exactly as you intended, at the moment you intended.
Why your Nominee is essential for Legacy Planning
Selecting a nominee is a meaningful and protective step. It is an act of love. It is a way of making sure that the people who matter most will one day receive the clarity, guidance, and emotional connection you want them to have.
Why choosing a Nominee matters:
• Ensures your legacy reaches the right people
• Protects your privacy while you are alive
• Prevents confusion or conflict among loved ones
• Supports your family with organized, easy to access information
• Helps your loved ones navigate responsibilities with confidence
Gives those you love something deeply personal to hold on to, a final message or memory that brings comfort during difficult days.
This choice brings peace, stability, and emotional reassurance to the people who will miss you most.
What you can pass to your Nominee with Crux Legacy
Crux Legacy allows you to securely store nearly every important part of your life. These items are only shared with your nominee at the appropriate time.
Types of information you can store and share:
- Legal documents
- Real estate and property records
- Insurance details
- Financial and bank account information
- Passwords and digital access instructions
- Medical records
- Family memories and personal photos
- Videos and heartfelt messages
- Notes, wishes, and personal instructions
- Time Capsules (short messages, photos, or videos meant to be opened in the future, like a digital letter across time)
- Any essential information you want your loved ones to have
Your nominee receives all of this through a protected digital environment once access is unlocked.
Who can be your Nominee
Choosing a nominee is a personal decision, and the right person is someone who understands your values and will honor your intentions with care. A nominee can be anyone you trust deeply, someone who can carry your legacy forward with respect when the time comes.
People who can be your nominee:
• A close friend you have shared important moments with, even from your university days;
• A sibling who knows your story and understands your wishes;
• A parent who cares deeply about your wellbeing and legacy;
• A partner or spouse who shares your life journey;
• A trusted relative, such as a cousin or grandparent;
• A long time friend who has been part of your life through different phases;
• A professional you rely on, such as your lawyer;
• A healthcare professional you trust, such as your family doctor;
• Anyone who you believe will carry your legacy with respect and compassion.
Speaking openly with the person you choose can help them understand your wishes and the importance of their role.
How to add your Nominee in Crux Legacy
Adding a nominee is a crucial step in Crux Legacy. Without a nominee your legacy cannot be released, as the app requires a trusted person to access your information when the time comes.
How it works inside the App:
- Sign up on Crux Legacy and create your account;
- Click on Add Nominee in your dashboard’s top right section;
- The moment you add a nominee, a dedicated folder with their name is automatically created, where you can start uploading documents, photos, videos, and messages;
- Start organizing your legacy with documents, photos, videos, and messages;
- Select what each nominee will access;
- Update, add, or change nominees whenever needed.
Crux Legacy also allows you to appoint multiple nominees, giving you flexibility and the ability to share responsibilities among the people you trust.
When your Nominee receives your Legacy
One of the most important protections built into Crux Legacy is timing. Your nominee cannot access your legacy immediately. They only gain access after your passing. Until then everything remains fully private and encrypted. This ensures your information is safe, your privacy is respected, and your legacy is delivered only at the appropriate moment.
How Crux Legacy keeps your information safe
Crux Legacy is built as a secure digital vault to keep your most important information private and protected. The app uses bank grade AES 256 encryption to safeguard everything you store. Your data is encrypted at all times, both while stored and while being transmitted, making it unreadable to anyone without permission.
Crux follows a zero knowledge approach, which means only you and your authorised nominees can access your information. Not even the Crux team can see your content. You remain the full owner of all your documents, memories, and media. Uploading them to Crux does not change that.
Why Legacy Planning is a loving act
Planning your legacy is more than organizing documents. It is a powerful act of caring. It allows you to offer stability, guidance, and emotional reassurance to the people who will one day look for answers in the memories and information you leave behind.
Legacy planning reduces stress for your loved ones, protects them from uncertainty, and preserves your story with meaning and clarity.
How Crux Legacy makes the process simple and secure
Crux Legacy makes legacy planning intuitive, secure, and human centered. The app protects your most important information through strong encryption and gives you a clear structure for storing and organizing your legacy.
With guided planning, private storage, and flexible nominee management, Crux Legacy helps you prepare your legacy with confidence and care.
