Key steps involve inventorying assets, naming a digital executor or trusted agent, setting access methods, and documenting your plans so loved ones know your wishes.

Definition and Explanation

Digital asset planning explains how you own and control online content and how you want it handled if you’re unavailable. It covers access, transfer, privacy, and ongoing management.

Key Elements and Processes

Key elements include creating an inventory, designating who can access what, securing authentication details, and outlining steps for ensuring assets are managed according to your instructions. Regular reviews help keep the plan current.

Key Terms and Glossary
