(b) Unless otherwise ordered by the court or directed by the user, a custodian shall disclose to a guardian the catalogue of electronic communications sent or received by a person with a disability and any digital assets, other than the content of electronic communications, in which the person with a disability has a right or interest if the guardian gives the custodian:

(2) a certified copy of the court order that gives the guardian authority over the digital assets of the person with a disability; and

(3) if requested by the custodian:

(A) a number, username, address, or other unique subscriber or account identifier assigned by the custodian to identify the account of the person with a disability; or

(B) evidence linking the account to the person with a disability.

(c) A guardian with general authority to manage the assets of a person with a disability may request a custodian of the digital assets of the person with a disability to suspend or terminate an account of the person with a disability for good cause. A request made under this Section must be accompanied by a certified copy of the court order giving the guardian authority over the protected person's property.
