This is a template, not a legal document. It helps your family find and handle your digital accounts — but it is not a substitute for a will. Ask your lawyer about making this legally binding under your state's RUFADAA law (the Revised Uniform Fiduciary Access to Digital Assets Act, which lets executors legally access digital accounts in most U.S. states).
