SB4022 amends the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act by removing the requirement for Illinois governmental agencies to use or permit electronic records and signatures. It allows these agencies to decide whether to send, accept, create, communicate, store, process, use, and rely on electronic records and signatures. The State Board of Elections is exempt from accepting electronic records and signatures. The act also specifies the attributes for electronic records and signatures, including their format, preservation, security, and auditability.
