Article 2840 removes the need to prove that a technology-based document's medium or processes ensure its integrity, unless the person contesting its admissibility establishes, by a preponderance of evidence, that the document's integrity has been breached.
The burden therefore falls on the challenger: a well-kept technology-based document is treated as reliable until a breach of its integrity is shown.
This is a strong defensive position for a syndicate - provided integrity is genuinely assured upstream (non-modifiable documents, access logging).
CondoAide reinforces this position with read-only retention, time-stamping and hashing, which make any alteration detectable.
