message was a duplicate. Article 9 Where the originator has requested or agreed with the addressee, on or before sending the data message that the receipt of the data message be acknowledged, the data message shall be deemed as received by the addressee once the aforementioned acknowledgement is received by the originator. This does not imply that the content of the data message as sent corresponds to the content as received Article 10 Where the originator has not identified or agreed with the addressee that the acknowledgement be given in a particular form or by a particular method, an acknowledgement may be given by any communication by the addressee, automated or otherwise, or any conduct of the addressee, sufficient to indicate to the originator that the data message has been received. Article 11 Where the originator has stated that the data message is conditional on receipt of the acknowledgement, the data message shall be treated as though it was not sent, until the acknowledgement is received. Where the originator has not stated that the data message is conditional on receipt of an acknowledgement, and where an acknowledgement has not been received by the originator, the originator may give notice to the addressee stating that the earlier data message requires acknowledgement and specifying a reasonable time by which the acknowledgement must be received, and if the acknowledgement is not received within the time specified, the originator may, upon notice to the addressee, treat the data message as though it was not sent, or exercise any other rights it may have. Article 12 Where the received acknowledgement states that the data message met technical requirements, either agreed upon or set forth in applicable standards, those requirements shall be deemed to have been met. Article 13 The provisions of Articles 9, 10, 11 and 12 of this Law shall not exceed sending or receipt of the data message to the legal consequences of sending the data message or the acknowledgement thereof. Article 14 Unless otherwise agreed between the originator and the addressee of the data message, the time of dispatching the data message shall be determined as follows: 1. Where the data message enters an information system outside the control of the originator; 2. Where the data message enters successively to two or more information systems outside the control of the originator, then, the dispatch time of the data message occurs when it enters the first of those information systems.
