AI Summary

  • Amends Minnesota Statutes section 325L.08 to clarify agreements regarding electronic transactions and mail delivery methods.

  • Allows parties to satisfy written information requirements through electronic records if they have agreed to conduct transactions electronically, provided the recipient can retain the record at time of receipt.

  • Prohibits senders from inhibiting a recipient's ability to store or print electronic records; records become unenforceable against recipients if such inhibition occurs.

  • Permits agreements to vary the requirement that records be sent by first-class mail or regular United States mail, removing the limitation "to the extent permitted by the other law" from the statute.

  • Maintains that most requirements in the statute cannot be varied by agreement, except where other laws explicitly permit variations to written delivery requirements.
