NRS 680A.550
Requirements for delivery of notice or other document by electronic means.


1.

Except as otherwise provided in subsection 2 and NRS 680A.560, a notice or other document may be delivered by electronic means by an insurer to a party pursuant to subsection 1 of NRS 680A.540 if:

(a)

The party has affirmatively consented to delivery by electronic means and has not withdrawn such consent;

(b)

Before giving consent to delivery by electronic means, the party is provided with a clear and conspicuous statement informing the party of:

(1)

The right of the party to withdraw consent to delivery by electronic means at any time and any conditions or consequences which may be imposed in the event consent is withdrawn;

(2)

The types of notices and other documents to which the consent of the party to delivery by electronic means would apply;

(3)

The right of the party to have a notice or other document delivered in paper form; and

(4)

The procedures the party must follow to withdraw consent to delivery by electronic means and to update the electronic mail address of the party;

(c)

The party, after being provided with a statement of the hardware and software requirements for access to and retention of a notice or other document delivered by electronic means, consents or confirms consent electronically in a manner that reasonably demonstrates that the party can access information in the electronic form that will be used for delivery by electronic means of notices or other documents to which the party has given consent;

(d)

The insurer takes measures reasonably calculated to ensure that delivery by electronic means results in the receipt of a notice or other document by the party; and

(e)

Upon a change in the hardware or software requirements for access to and retention of a notice or other document delivered by electronic means which occurs after the party has consented to delivery by electronic means which creates a material risk that the party will not be able to access or retain a subsequent notice or other document, the insurer provides the party with:

(1)

A statement that describes the revised hardware or software requirements for access to and retention of a notice or other documents delivered by electronic means and the right of the party to withdraw consent without the imposition of any condition or consequence not described in the statement initially provided to the party pursuant to paragraph (b); and

(2)

A revised statement containing the information described in paragraph (b) which applies to the revised hardware or software requirements.

2.

If a provision of this Code or any other law applicable to the delivery of a notice or other document, including, without limitation, a notice required pursuant to NRS 687B.320 to 687B.350, inclusive, requires verification or acknowledgment of receipt of the notice or other document, the notice or other document may be delivered by electronic means only if the electronic form used for delivery provides for verification or acknowledgment of receipt. If the insurer does not receive verification or acknowledgment of receipt within 3 days after delivery by electronic means of a notice or other document described by this subsection, the insurer shall deliver the notice or other document by any other delivery method authorized by law.
