PROCEDURE FOR EXERCISING ARCO RIGHTS
Every individual, as the owner of their personal data (or through their representative), has the right to access such data, rectify it, request its cancellation, or object to its processing. These rights are known as ARCO Rights and are independent from one another, meaning that exercising any one of them is neither a prerequisite for nor an impediment to exercising another.
Right of Access
This is the right to request access to personal data contained in databases, systems, files, records, or archives used or maintained by the company, as well as to obtain information related to the conditions or general aspects of the processing thereof.
Right of Rectification
This is the right to request the correction of personal data in the company’s possession when such data is inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated.
Right of Cancellation
This is the right to request that personal data be deleted or removed from the company’s files, records, archives, systems, or databases and cease to be processed by the company. If cancellation is deemed appropriate, the data must first be blocked and subsequently deleted. However, personal data may not always be deleted, particularly when necessary for the company’s compliance with legal obligations.
Right of Opposition
This is the right to request that the company refrain from using personal information for certain purposes or require that the use thereof cease. As with cancellation, processing may not always be prevented when personal data is necessary for compliance with the company’s legal obligations.
When Does the Exercise of ARCO Rights Not Apply?
- When the owner of the personal data or their representative is not duly accredited
- When the personal data is not in the possession of the Data Controller
- When third-party rights are affected
- When there is a legal impediment or a resolution issued by a competent authority restricting access to personal data or preventing rectification, cancellation, or opposition
In such cases, the company shall respond to the request in writing and inform the requester of the reasons for inadmissibility.
