Postumo was born from the experiences of two brothers, Julien and Franck Ridon, following the loss of their close parents, a grandmother and then an aunt.
To us, between family beneficiaries, the difficulty to understand whom to notify
the death, finding certain documents, the lack of communication,
the confusion with the role of the notary in this process, etc.
They realized that the lack of up-to-date information about a person was the key problem.
Julien and Franck decided to create Postumo
in order to be able to help the largest number of families
Postumo is actually complementary to the will
The will is designed to list assets for inheritance and outline final wishes. It does not provide finer details about an asset. That's why this Postumo service was created to complement the will, by securing relevant information that the family can pass on to the notary.
In the event of death, Postumo allows to transmit immediately the data to the family members so they can immediately start the first posthumous formalities while waiting for the appointment with a notary.
Le testament est conçu pour lister les biens pour la succession ainsi que les dernières volontés.
Finally, not all personal properties are necessarily recorded in the will: jewelry, a watch, paintings, etc.
Postumo stands out for its comprehensive support and intuitive platform. Today, it is the first digital platform that allows you:
⊕ In addition to that, Postumo integrates an intelligent digital coach which will raise awareness among each user on subjects related to retirement, foresight, aging well and asset and estate optimization.
The Serenity offer is more than a digital safe, it is an smart encrypted capsule which does not just stores documents but essential information. Postumo's service has many similar benefits. Here are 10 good reasons to do so:

Loss or theft prevention By saving your important information in a secure folder, you avoid the risk of loss or physical destruction of important documents.

Simplified organization You can organize and structure your personal data in a clear and consistent way, making it easier to manage and find later.
Information transfer In the event of your death, your loved ones will have access to your important information, such as your account details, contracts, insurance policies, etc., enabling them to take the necessary steps with ease.
Confidentiality preserved You retain total control over your data and decide who can access it, by defining specific authorizations for each document or piece of information.
Easy to update You can easily update your personal data in your secure folder, ensuring that your information is always up to date and relevant.

To organize your affairs after your death, we recommend that you create a file containing all your important documents, such as your will, insurance policies, financial information, and funeral wishes. You can also use a specialized online platform such as Postumo, which allows you to centralize all this information and share it with your loved ones.

After your death, your next of kin will have to deal with a number of administrative formalities, such as registering the death at the town hall, contacting social security bodies, banks, and insurers, and settling the estate. It's a good idea to provide them with a list of the contacts and documents they'll need to make these formalities easier.
To make things easier for your loved ones, you can take steps such as appointing a proxy to manage your affairs after your death, providing a power of attorney in the event of incapacity, and regularly updating your wishes and personal information. You can also provide them with clear instructions about your wishes regarding your funeral and the management of your property.
Your loved ones will need important documents such as your death certificate, will, insurance policies, bank statements, property deeds, and identity papers. It's a good idea to keep these documents in an easily accessible file and to inform your loved ones of this. With Postumo's Serenity service, you can be sure that all your information and documents will be passed on to your loved ones in a structured and organized manner, enabling them to manage all the procedures associated with your death more easily.

To get organized as you age and make it easier for your loved ones to manage your estate after your death, it is essential to adopt a methodical approach. Firstly, drafting a clear will is essential. This document allows you to detail the distribution of your assets and express your final wishes, thus reducing the risk of family conflicts and ensuring that your wishes are respected.
Secondly, the implementation of advance directives is strongly recommended. These guidelines outline your wishes regarding medical care and end-of-life decisions, in the event that you are no longer able to communicate them yourself. They ensure that your personal beliefs will be taken into account, thus relieving your loved ones of difficult decisions.
It's also crucial to organize and secure all your important documents, such as property deeds, insurance contracts, bank statements and investment account information. Using a file or safe, whether physical or digital, can be very useful. Make sure trusted people, such as a family member or executor, know where to find these documents and how to access them.
Planning your funeral in advance can also be beneficial. This involves thinking about the type of ceremony you want, choosing between burial and cremation, and the location of your grave. Preparing these details in advance can significantly ease the emotional and financial burden on your loved ones.
Finally, communication is key. Discuss your plans and wishes openly with your loved ones to avoid any confusion or surprises after your death. This ensures that everyone is on the same page and that your wishes are clearly understood.
In short, good organization of your personal and property affairs is essential to ensure a smooth transition for your loved ones after your departure. This involves thinking carefully about your wishes, documenting and securing your important information, and communicating effectively with those around you. For personalized advice and solutions tailored to your needs, consider consulting professionals or specialized platforms like Postumo, qui peuvent offrir un soutien précieux dans ce processus.
Expressing your last wishes is an essential step to ensure that our wishes regarding our property, our end-of-life care and our funeral are respected after our departure. To do this, several steps and means are recommended:
Writing a will : This is the most formal and legally recognized means of expressing one's last wishes. A will allows you to designate the heirs of your property and can also include specific instructions for funerals. It is possible to draw up a holographic will yourself, but calling on a notary for an authentic will provides additional guarantees as to its validity and execution.
Last wishes : This document allows you to express your wishes regarding medical treatments and care to receive or not to receive at the end of life, in the event that you are no longer able to communicate. This is a crucial element for respecting one’s wishes regarding health care.
Enduring Power of Attorney : It allows you to designate one or more trusted people to take care of the management of your property and/or its protection if you become unable to do it yourself.
Communication with loved ones : Beyond legal documents, it is important to openly discuss your wishes with family and close friends. These conversations can go a long way in helping your loved ones understand your preferences and respect them when the time comes.
Organization and documentation : Gathering all important documents (will, advance directives, insurance policies, banking documents, etc.) in one safe place and informing a trusted person of their location is also a key step in ensuring that your wishes are known and accessible.
By anticipating and planning thoughtfully, you not only ensure that your wishes are respected, but you also ease the emotional and administrative burden on your loved ones after you are gone. For more information and personalized advice, do not hesitate to consult a legal professional or visit sites specializing in wealth management and estate planning.

Compliance status
We firmly believe that the Internet should be available and accessible to everyone, and we are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, whatever their circumstances and abilities.
To this end, we aim to comply as far as possible with the World Wide Web Consortium's (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities. Compliance with these guidelines helps us to ensure that the website is accessible to all: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairments, cognitive impairments, and more.
This website uses various technologies to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We use an accessibility interface that enables people with specific disabilities to adjust the website's user interface (UI) and design it to suit their personal needs.
In addition, the website uses an AI-based application that runs in the background and constantly optimizes its level of accessibility. This application corrects the website's HTML, adapting its functionality and behavior for screen readers used by blind users, and for keyboard functions used by people with motor impairments.
If you've found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we'd love to hear from you. You can contact the website operators using the following e-mail address: contact@postumo.fr
Our website implements the ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) attribute technique, in addition to various behavioral changes, to ensure that blind users who visit the site with a screen reader can read, understand and enjoy the website's functions. As soon as a user with a screen reader enters your site, they are immediately prompted to enter the screen reader profile so they can navigate and use your site effectively. Here's how our website covers some of the most important requirements for screen readers, accompanied by screenshots of console code:
Optimization for screen readers: we run a background process that learns website components from top to bottom, to ensure continued compliance even when the website is updated. In this process, we provide screen readers with meaningful data using the ARIA attribute set. For example, we provide precise form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, shopping cart icons, etc.); validation hints for form entries; roles for elements such as buttons, menus, modal dialogs (popups), and more. In addition, the background process scans all images on the website and provides an accurate and meaningful description based on object recognition as an ALT tag (alternative text) for images that are not described. It also extracts text embedded in the image, using OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To activate screen reader adjustments at any time, users simply press the Alt+1 key combination. Screen reader users also receive automatic announcements to activate screen reader mode as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: the background process also adjusts the website's HTML and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website keyboard-friendly. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, to operate drop-down menus using the arrow keys, to close them using Esc, to trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, to navigate between radio items and checkboxes using the arrow keys, and to fill them in using the spacebar or Enter key. In addition, keyboard users will find quick navigation menus and content skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site when navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and does not allow the focus to drift away from them.
Users can also use shortcuts such as "M" (menus), "H" (titles), "F" (forms), "B" (buttons) and "G" (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
Epilepsy-safe mode: this profile enables people with epilepsy to use the site in complete safety, eliminating the risk of seizures caused by flashing animations or dangerous color combinations.
Visually impaired mode: this mode adjusts the site for the comfort of users with visual disorders such as impaired vision, reduced visual field, cataracts, glaucoma, etc.
Cognitive impairment mode: this mode offers various assistance options to help users with cognitive impairments such as dyslexia, autism, stroke and others to concentrate more easily on the essential elements of the site.
Hyperactivity-friendly mode (ADHD): this mode helps users with ADHD and neurodevelopmental disorders to read, navigate and concentrate more easily on the main elements of the site, while considerably reducing distractions.
Blind mode: this mode configures the site to be compatible with screen readers such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver and TalkBack. A screen reader is software for blind users installed on computers and smartphones, and websites must be compatible with this software.
Keyboard navigation profile (people with reduced mobility): this profile enables people with reduced mobility to use the site using the Tab, Shift+Tab, and Enter keys. Users can also use shortcuts such as "M" (menus), "H" (titles), "F" (forms), "B" (buttons), and "G" (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
Font adjustments: users can increase and decrease font size, change font family (type), adjust spacing, alignment, line spacing and more.
Color adjustments: users can choose different color contrast profiles such as light, dark, inverted and monochrome. In addition, users can swap color schemes for titles, text and backgrounds, with over 7 different coloring options.
Animations: epileptic users can stop all animations in progress with a single click. Interface-controlled animations include videos, GIFs and flashing CSS transitions.
Content highlighting: users can choose to highlight important elements such as links and titles. They can also choose to highlight only those elements on which the pointer is placed or which are in focus.
Mute audio: users with hearing aids may experience headaches or other problems due to automatic audio playback. This option allows users to mute the entire site instantly.
Cognitive disorders: we use a search engine linked to Wikipedia and Wiktionary, enabling people with cognitive disorders to decipher the meanings of phrases, initials, slang and more.
Additional functions: we offer users the option of changing cursor color and size, using a print mode, activating a virtual keyboard, and many other functions.
Browser and assistive technology compatibility
We aim to support the widest possible range of browsers and assistive technologies, so that our users can choose the tools best suited to their needs, with as few limitations as possible. As a result, we've worked very hard to support all the major systems that account for over 95% of user market share, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers), for both Windows and MAC users.
Despite all our efforts to enable everyone to adjust the site to their needs, there may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, that are in the process of becoming so, or that lack an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Nevertheless, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and enhancing options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is aimed at achieving the optimum level of accessibility, keeping pace with technological advances. For assistance, please contact contact@postumo.fr
