Subdivision 1.Notices upon offer.
A seller making an offer for an indefinite subscription agreement must, before the consumer accepts the offer, present the offer terms in a clear and conspicuous manner to the consumer and in visual proximity, or in the case of an offer conveyed by voice, in temporal proximity, to the offer's proposal.
Subd. 2.Confirmation upon consumer consent.
A seller making an offer for an indefinite subscription agreement must, in a timely manner after the consumer accepts the offer, provide the consumer with confirmation of the consumer's acceptance of the offer, in a manner that is capable of being retained by the consumer, that includes the following:
(1) the offer terms;
(2) if the offer includes a free trial, information on how to cancel the free trial before the consumer pays or becomes obligated to pay for any goods or services in connection with the free trial; and
(3) options for termination of the indefinite subscription agreement, which options must be easy to use, cost-effective, and timely for all consumers:
(i) if a seller makes offers for an indefinite subscription agreement through an online website, a termination election as set forth in section325G.60; and
(ii) if a consumer enters into the indefinite subscription agreement through any means other than a toll-free telephone number, an email address, or a postal address, then an option substantially similar to, as easy to use, and as accessible as the initial means of consumer acceptance of the agreement.
A communication of the required information through email is sufficient to meet the requirements of this subdivision.

Subd. 5.Periodic notice of continuous service.
(a) If an indefinite subscription agreement is subject to continuous service, the seller must give the consumer written notice of the continuous service at least once per calendar year via mail or email.
