Nothing in this Act or the regulations requires a person to create or provide an electronic document. Despite anything in this Part, a requirement under this Act or the regulations to provide a person with a notice, document or other information is not satisfied by the provision of an electronic document unless the addressee has consented, in the manner prescribed, and has designated an information system for the receipt of the electronic document; and the electronic document is provided to the designated information system, unless otherwise prescribed. An addressee may revoke the consent referred to in paragraph (2)(a) in the manner prescribed.
