How to use your emergency binder

Share access with someone you trust

Your spouse, adult child, or trusted friend should know how to access this information if you can't. Use PaperPilot's private links to share securely.

Review and update every 6 months

Insurance policies, medications, and contacts change. Set a calendar reminder to review your emergency binder twice a year.

Store digital access info separately

Passwords and login information are especially sensitive. Consider using a password manager and sharing only the master access with your trusted person.

Keep a physical backup

Power outages and phone batteries die during emergencies. Print critical information (medical, contacts) and keep it somewhere accessible.

Be ready for anything

Save your emergency binder to PaperPilot. Access it anywhere, share with a private link, and update it easily.
