(3)Provides a notice by email to a consumer who has agreed to receive electronic disclosures by email from the affiliate providing the notice; or
(4)Posts the notice on the Web site at which the consumer obtained a product or service electronically and requires the consumer to acknowledge receipt of the notice.
