2-3-1004. User direction for disclosure of digital assets.

(a) A user may use an online tool to direct a custodian to disclose or not to disclose to a designated recipient some or all of the user's digital assets, including the content of electronic communications sent or received by the user. If the online tool at all times allows a user to modify or delete a direction to a custodian to disclose some or all of the user's digital assets, the direction regarding disclosure overrides a contrary direction by the user in a will, trust, power of attorney or other like record.

(b) If a user has not used an online tool to direct a custodian under subsection (a) of this section or if a custodian has not provided an online tool, the user may direct in a will, trust, power of attorney or other like record the disclosure or nondisclosure to a fiduciary some or all of the user's digital assets, including the content of electronic communications sent or received by the user.

(c) A user's direction under subsection (a) or (b) of this section overrides a contrary provision in a terms of service agreement if the agreement did not require the user to act affirmatively and distinctly from the user's assent to the agreement.
