(1) In addition to any other requirement set forth in law, each person licensed or permitted by the department shall notify the department in writing of the person’s e-mail address. The failure to notify the department of a change in any e-mail address provided to the department constitutes a violation of this section and may be subject to the penalties provided in s. 570.971(3). (2)(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, service by e-mail to a person’s e-mail address of record constitutes adequate and sufficient notice when required by law, except when other service is required pursuant to s. 120.60. (b) If the department receives notification that service by e-mail, as authorized by this section, has failed, the department may provide notice to the person by calling the person’s last known telephone number of record, mailing the notice to the last known address, or posting a short, plain notice to the person on the department’s website.
