Re: [H] Security
Then use an app on ur phone & make sure a significant other has access? I just don't think putting it on the web is a safe idea unless u encrypt / password it...

Re: [H] Security
I'd not use any personal info, just list ur medical diagnosis & allergies, meds(amount, how & when u take etc), & maybe "if u got to this site by reading ABC dogtag u r @ the right place."

Re: [H] Security
I gave that a lot of thought but I think that would just add confusion and slow things down or maybe the reader just doesn't bother or doesn't put it together or gets confused putting in a password or the site doesn't work. We are not talking about nerds like us. it has to be really really simple and accessible very very quickly .which it is.

Re: [H] Security
Easy add a layer of security: Add a password to the site in case someone finds it accidentally. Add the password to your dog tag allowing those who have the dog tag to access the site.

[H] Security
I own a domain and hosting account that is hung on Godaddy. I have a sub domain that has to do with personal medical information. I created it because I live alone and if something were to happen all necessary information is on that sub domain index web page. I don't use passwords or encryption for this page because if I am brought in the ER somebody needs to look at my dog tag and use the address to bring up my info. It is the KISS principle. I use a robots.txt file on both the main and sub domain to avoid searches, and the fact that somebody would have to know the sub domain address in-order to bring it up which is unlikely or that is my theory. I think we have some web developers in the collective so please give me your thoughts. There is always going to be a risk but is this good enough. Thanks w
