By signing and/or accepting this Privacy Policy, You expressly authorize Amphora Health to transfer electronically and/or physically your Personal Data to third parties related to Amphora Health and provide you with the products or services that you have required or for which you have registered.
Amphora Health will transfer the Personal Data provided or that has been received legitimately, regardless of the source, when required by judicial order or to comply with the obligations derived from legal relationships entered into by Amphora Health for the benefit of the Owner. When providing your Personal Data, You release Amphora Health from any liability that may occur by collecting or transferring your data in compliance with the provision of the service you receive.
Personal Data can be transferred and processed inside and outside the country, by people other than Amphora Health. In this sense, your Personal Data may be shared with our allies, suppliers, contractors, business partners and/or third parties with whom Amphora Health has entered into or concludes various agreements both in Mexico and/or abroad, to send, at Amphora Health’s sole discretion, provide services related to the purposes of the Data Processing; conduct research and in general to improve Amphora Health’s services. Your Personal Data may also be collected, transferred, stored and processed in a country other than where it was provided. If we do, we transfer the information in accordance with the applicable data protection laws and having entered into data transfer and/or remission agreements, establishing the data protection obligations in terms of this Privacy Policy. We take steps to protect Personal Data regardless of the country where it is stored or where it is transferred. We have timely procedures and controls to seek this protection.

However, Amphora Health does not guarantee that unauthorized third parties will not have access to the physical or logical systems of the Owners or the Data Controller or in the electronic documents and files stored in their systems. Therefore, Amphora Health will not be liable in any case for the damages that may arise from such unauthorized access.
The Owner or its duly accredited legal representative may limit the use or disclosure of the Personal Data through the same means and procedures provided for the exercise of ARCO Rights. In the event that such a request is appropriate, the Owner will be registered in the exclusion list generated by Amphora Health to stop receiving information related to Secondary Purposes of Processing.

The Owner will have ten business days to meet the complementary request, counted from the day after it has been received. If no response is given within this period, the corresponding request will be considered as not filed.
Amphora Health will respond to the Owner within a maximum period of twenty business days, counted from the date the request was received, so that, if appropriate, it becomes effective within fifteen business days after the response is communicated.
