Massachusetts H1968, also known as the Massachusetts Revised Uniform Fiduciary Access to Digital Assets Act, governs how fiduciaries can access a deceased user's electronic mail accounts. The act mandates that users can direct custodians to disclose or withhold their digital assets, including electronic communications, via an online tool. Fiduciaries, such as personal representatives, conservators, agents, or trustees, can request access to digital assets if the user has not specified otherwise in a will, trust, or power of attorney.
