Correct Answer
C. It may allow additions or deletions to the electronic record without leaving any record of those changes so long as the signer consents.
Detailed Explanation
The technology must preserve an audit trail of changes. 19 NYCRR §182.8(a) requires live simultaneous audio-visual communication, front-and-back ID capture, secure transmission, a process that does not permit additions, deletions, or changes without leaving a record, and recording/archiving capability. Not to be confused with the separate identity-proofing standards in §182.7, these are platform requirements, not quiz requirements.
