Legal mentions :

In order to deposit and send a registered letter via the Internet, the sender must enter his name or company name, his electronic and postal contact details, as well as those of the recipient(s).

The prior consent of the recipient:

Each shipment of registered letter electronic must be preceded by a request for consent from the recipient. This agreement remains a major element of the shipment, because it proves that the email address used to notify the recipient is indeed his.

Double identification:

Namely that of the sender and that of the recipient. Once the identifications have been validated, the electronic registered letters are automatically routed.

Additional options for electronic registered mail

There are also additional amenities that you can benefit from depending on the provider chosen:

Bulk shipment:

Unlike Single Send, Bulk Mode allows you to register a defined set of recipients for easy sending. This option is specially adapted for trustees, because it simplifies the management of lists of recipients in the case of co-ownership management (sending of notices and reports of general meetings, etc.)

Invoicing flow management:

Still according to the operators, the billing system generally allows the sender to use different bank accounts. A sender can thus select the bank account which must be withdrawn for the sending of his electronic registered letter. This method makes it possible to arrange several invoicing flows. This system is judicious within the framework of the management of syndic of co-ownerships.

The LRE therefore has many advantages, but it is important to choose a service provider that complies with data protection regulations. Indeed, the protection of information is a particularly important issue, as you can read here.
