The Massachusetts Revised Uniform Fiduciary Access to Digital Assets Act allows fiduciaries to access digital assets of users, including electronic communications, under specific conditions. It applies to fiduciaries acting under wills, powers of attorney, or court orders. Custodians must disclose digital assets if requested by a fiduciary, unless the user has directed otherwise or disclosure would violate laws. The act also allows users to direct custodians on disclosure of their digital assets using an online tool.
