It mandates that any policy changes be clearly explained to both the vendor and the customer through updated documents or summaries. The law also allows for immediate cancellation only in specific situations, such as fraud, nonpayment, or when the customer no longer has an active service with the vendor. Additionally, the bill permits notices to be sent via mail or electronic means if the customer has provided an email address.
