Acknowledgment of electronic records governs when communications become binding and permits treating unacknowledged records as never sent.
Where the originator makes receipt of acknowledgment a condition for the electronic record to be binding, failure to receive acknowledgment results in the record being deemed never sent. Where no such condition is stipulated, the originator may, after non-receipt within the applicable period, notify the addressee and prescribe a reasonable further period. If acknowledgment remains outstanding, the originator may treat the electronic record as never sent.
