a) Full name and address of the holder of the Personal Data, or any other means for communicating the response to your request.
b) Documents proving the identity of the holder of the Personal Data or, where appropriate, the legal representation of the holder.
c) A clear and precise description of the Personal Data with respect to which you seek to exercise any of the aforementioned rights.

e) An indication of the modifications to be made and/or the limitations on the use of the Personal Data, in accordance with section 6.2 of this Privacy Policy.
f) The supporting documentation for your request.
IX.2. Response to the request for rectification or cancellation of Personal Data: The Controller will inform the Data Subject of its decision within a period not exceeding twenty (20) business days from the date on which the request was received. This period may be extended once by the Controller for an equal period, provided that the circumstances of the case so justify.
Once the request has been submitted and the above-mentioned response period has elapsed, the Controller will inform the Data Subject of the outcome and grounds of the decision by the same means used to submit the request and, where appropriate, will attach any relevant evidence.
If the request is accepted, the Controller will make the corresponding changes within fifteen (15) business days following the date on which the decision is communicated.
If the Controller does not respond to the request or if the request is denied, the Data Subject may file a data protection request with the Federal Institute for Access to Information (Instituto Federal de Acceso a la Información) based on the response received or the lack of response from the Controller. Such request must be submitted by the Data Subject within fifteen (15) business days following the date on which Con-Tak informs the Data Subject of its response or, in the case of no response, within fifteen (15) business days from the date on which the response should have been issued, and shall be subject to the provisions of the Law.
In the case of requests for access to Personal Data, it will be necessary for the applicant or their legal representative to first prove their identity.
The obligation to provide access to the information shall be deemed fulfilled when Con-Tak makes the Personal Data available to the Data Subject or by issuing simple copies or electronic documents.
If a person requests access to their Personal Data from Con-Tak on the assumption that Con-Tak is the Controller, and it turns out that Con-Tak is not the Controller, it will be sufficient for Con-Tak to so inform the Data Subject by any of the means set forth in this section in order to consider the request closed.
The response to your request to access, rectify, cancel or oppose the processing of your Personal Data will be free of charge. You will only be required to cover any justified shipping costs or the cost of reproduction in copies or other formats, which Con-Tak will inform you of at the appropriate time.
If the same person repeats a request for access, rectification, cancellation or opposition of their Personal Data within a period of less than twelve (12) months from the date of the previous request, the response to your request may be subject to an additional cost set by Con-Tak, in accordance with Article 35 of the Law.

 
X. REFUSAL TO GRANT ACCESS TO PERSONAL DATA
Con-Tak may deny total or partial access to Personal Data or the rectification, cancellation or opposition to the processing of such data in the following cases:
X.1. When the applicant is not the Data Subject and the legal representative is not duly authorized.
X.2. When the Personal Data of the applicant cannot be found in Con-Tak’s Database.
X.3. When the rights of a third party may be infringed.
X.4. When there is a legal impediment or a resolution from a competent authority.
X.5. When rectification, cancellation or opposition has already been carried out, such that the request has no substance.
 
XI. CONSEQUENCES OF CANCELLATION
The cancellation of Personal Data will lead to a blocking period after which Con-Tak will proceed to delete the corresponding data.
Once the corresponding Personal Data has been cancelled, Con-Tak will notify the Data Subject.
After this, Con-Tak may keep the Personal Data exclusively for purposes related to responsibilities arising from the processing referred to in this Privacy Policy.
When Personal Data have been transferred to third parties prior to rectification or cancellation and are being processed by such third parties, Con-Tak must inform them of the request submitted by the Data Subject so that they may carry out the corresponding rectifications or cancellations.
Con-Tak is not obliged to cancel your Personal Data when any of the cases established in Article 26 of the Law apply.
Likewise, when the information collected in the Personal Data is no longer necessary for the fulfillment of the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy and the applicable legal provisions, your Personal Data will be cancelled from Con-Tak’s Databases.


XII. CHANGES TO THE PRIVACY POLICY
Con-Tak reserves the right to make, at any time, modifications or updates to this Privacy Policy in order to address legislative or jurisprudential developments, internal policies, new requirements for the provision or offering of its products and services, or commercial practices.
Therefore, if Con-Tak modifies the content of this Privacy Policy, it will inform you of such changes by sending a notice to your e-mail address, or by publishing the changes using any of the forms and means established in section 6 of this Privacy Policy.
 
XIII. TRANSFER OF PERSONAL DATA
In the event that Con-Tak transfers your Personal Data to any of its providers in order to carry out the purposes of processing set out in this Privacy Policy, such transfer will be made subject to confidentiality agreements and provided that (i) the provider or recipient agrees to submit the processing of Personal Data to this Privacy Policy, and (ii) such transfer does not fall under any of the cases set out in Article 37 of the Law.
If you do not express your opposition to the transfer of your Personal Data to third parties, it shall be deemed that you have granted your consent to Con-Tak for such transfers.
