MEANS AND PROCEDURE FOR THE EXERCISE OF ARCH RIGHTS AND FOR  THE REVOCATION OF CONSENT.

In terms of the provisions of the Law, any ARCO Rights Request ("ARCO  Request") must comply with the following requirements: 

  1. Indicate the name of the Data Subject and his/her address, or other means  to communicate the response to his/her request. 
  2. Accompany the documents that allow to prove its identity, or in its case, the  representation of the Personal Data Holder.

For the submission of ARCO Requests, the Personal Data Subjects and their  representatives may submit a free written document providing all the minimum  requirements previously indicated. 

  1. Means of submitting ARCO requests or revoking consent. 

In order to make the submission of ARCO Requests simple, Personal Data  Subjects may submit such requests in the following ways: 

  1. Directly at the STP office identified at the beginning of this Privacy Notice. 

The Personal Data Subject must prove his or her identity by means of a  copy of his or her identification document and must show the original for  comparison. The following identification documents are accepted by STP:  INE credential, passport, military service card and professional license. 

If a representative attends, he/she must prove: (i) the identity of the Data  Subject, (ii) his/her identity as representative, and (iii) the existence of the  representation, by means of a public instrument or power of attorney signed 

before two witnesses, or through the declaration of the Data Subject in  personal appearance. 

Acknowledgement of receipt of the ARCO Request will be delivered to the  Data Subject or his/her representative, indicating the date of receipt. 

  1. By e-mail to the address [email protected], as long as it is possible to  reliably identify the Holder by means of authentication mechanisms allowed  by the legal provisions on the matter, and accepted by STP. The use of  advanced electronic signature or the electronic instrument that substitutes  it, shall exempt the presentation of the copy of the identification document.  Receipt will be acknowledged by e-mail indicating the date of receipt of the  ARCO Request. 
  2. Deadline for attention to ARCO Requests. 

The receipt of an ARCO Request does not imply that it is declared admissible by  STP. In the event that the information provided in the ARCO Request is insufficient  or erroneous to process it, or if the necessary documents to process it are not  provided, STP will require the Personal Data Subject or his/her representative,  within 5 business days following the receipt of the ARCO Request, for a single time,  to provide the necessary elements or documents to process it. The Personal Data  Holder or its representative will have 10 business days from the day following  receipt of the request to respond. 

STP will respond to the ARCO Request with the determination reached, within 20  business days from receipt of the request, or if additional information or documents  have been requested, within 20 business days from the day following the  presentation of the response to the request. 

In the event that the ARCO Request is granted, STP will make effective the  determination reached within 15 business days from the date the response is  communicated to the Data Subject or his/her representative. In the case of ARCO  Requests regarding the right of access to Personal Data, the delivery of such data  will be made prior accreditation of the identity of the Data Subject or his/her  representative. 

STP may extend the deadlines to respond to an ARCO Request, and/or to make  effective its reached determination, only once, for periods equal to those indicated  in each case, provided that the area in charge of handling Personal Data matters  considers that the circumstances of the case justify it. In such cases, STP will notify  the Data Subject or his/her representative, the circumstance(s) that justify the  extension, within each of the original deadlines to respond or to make effective the  determination reached.

Responses to ARCO Requests will be delivered to the Personal Data Subject or  his/her representative, by the same means by which the request was submitted,  either by e-mail, directly at the STP office where the ARCO Request was submitted,  or by Mexican postal mail or e-mail in cases where the ARCO Request was  submitted by telephone. The requested information or personal data may be made  available to the Personal Data Subject or his/her representative, in simple copies  or in electronic file depending on the type and quantity of documents involved in  each case. 

For the revocation of consent, it will be sufficient for the Data Subject to make  his/her request by telephone to the Legal Department of STP, or by e-mail to the  address [email protected], proving his/her identity in the terms indicated above  for this route. STP will give a positive response and will make such request  effective, provided that it is not a personal data necessary for the existence,  maintenance and fulfillment of its legal relationship with the Data Subject. 

LIMITATION OF THE USE OR DISCLOSURE OF THEIR PERSONAL DATA.  When the processing of Personal Data does not refer to those necessary to comply  with a legal or contractual obligation (compliance with the legal obligations arising  from the legal relationship existing between the Customer and STP), the Customer  shall have the right to request STP to limit the use and/or disclosure of its Personal  Data by means of the request that STP will provide, so that in case it is appropriate  STP registers the Customer's personal data in the exclusion lists within a term of 20  (twenty) calendar days from the presentation of the respective request.
