I know this is a long read, but this letter from our founder and CEO and the segment on the Today Show is a very good explanation of why my Forever.com storage is a valuable investment for me.
Dear FOREVER clients & friends,
If you have not seen the linked video segment below from “The Today Show” about Shutterfly deleting peoples’ photos, then please watch it now. https://www.today.com/video/what-you-need-to-know-about-photo-cloud-storage-170904645634
As we have been saying for over ten years, ALL of our major competitors offer only temporary cloud storage of photos and other memories. Eventually, they will ALL delete everything.
Why? Because once each of their customers stops paying, or printing, or being valuable to advertisers, there is no more money left to save that customer’s memories. In their Terms of Service, ALL of our competitors say they will eventually delete each of their customer’s memories. This is true of Shutterfly, Minted, Costco, iCloud, and all the others. FOREVER is different. When you purchase FOREVER Storage®, the majority of the money you pay goes into the FOREVER® Guarantee Fund where that money earns interest, dividends, and capital gains in a diversified investment portfolio to pay for each of our clients' storage over the very long term.
With FOREVER, our clients are ENDOWING the preservation of their memories. And FOREVER as a long-term business institution is the Guardian of each client’s precious memories. All of our clients’ memories are triple-backed up in multiple, geographically diverse locations, and we will migrate each client’s memories to new data formats as technology changes over time. We guarantee that we will preserve each of your memories (photos, videos, documents, and audio files) for your lifetime plus 100 years, with a goal of many, many generations beyond.
Save yourself from the future loss of your memories. Introduce people to FOREVER!
FOREVER Yours,
Glen T. Meakem
Founder & CEO
PS: You'll likely have to watch a short commercial before seeing The Today Show video as NBC streaming relies on advertising. Nothing is free! You are paying to watch this video with your time. With our streaming plan, we'll never advertise.
What if your most treasured photos stored online suddenly disappeared? It happened to Shutterfly customers earlier this year after a policy change. NBC’s Emilie Ikeda reports on why should always have a backup plan.
