Privacy Notice
This notice describes how Porto Partners processes the personal data it collects through this website, by email and in meetings with clients and prospective clients, in accordance with Mexico's Federal Law on the Protection of Personal Data Held by Private Parties (the "Law").
Identity and address of the data controller
Porto Partners, S.A.P.I. de C.V. ("Porto"), with its address at Av. Presidente Masaryk 29, Col. Polanco V Sección, Miguel Hidalgo, 11560 Mexico City, is the data controller for the personal data described in this notice.
The person designated by Porto to handle personal data matters receives requests at info@portopartners.mx.
Personal data processed
Porto processes identification and contact data (name, company, title, email and phone) and the content of the messages it receives.
In the course of a mandate, Porto may process financial or asset-related data of the client's shareholders, representatives or joint obligors when needed to prepare a transaction or a financing. This data is processed with the express consent of the data subject, except in the cases exempted by the Law.
Porto does not request sensitive personal data through this website. The contact form does not require it, and it should not be included in messages.
Purposes of processing
Purposes necessary to respond to the data subject's request and, where applicable, to maintain the service relationship with the data subject or with the company the data subject represents:
- Responding to contact and information requests.
- Assessing the situation of the company or project and preparing a proposal of services.
- Entering into and performing the advisory services agreement.
- Managing client relationships, including invoicing.
- Complying with legal obligations and requests from competent authorities.
Purposes that require the data subject's consent:
- Sending Insights: the quarterly report, the partners' notes and firm communications.
- Invitations to meetings and events organized by Porto.
The data subject may decline these purposes or withdraw consent at any time without affecting the necessary purposes.
Options to limit the use of data
The data subject may limit the use or disclosure of their data, or stop receiving Insights, by writing to info@portopartners.mx. Each Insights mailing will include a means to unsubscribe.
ARCO rights and withdrawal of consent
The data subject, or their legal representative, may exercise the rights of access, rectification, cancellation and opposition (ARCO rights), and may withdraw consent, by writing to info@portopartners.mx.
Requests must include the data subject's name and an address or other means to receive the response; documents evidencing their identity or, where applicable, legal representation; a clear and precise description of the data concerned; and any other information that helps locate the data. Rectification requests must specify the changes and include supporting documentation.
Porto will respond by the same means within the time limits set by the Law.
A data subject who considers that their right to the protection of personal data has been violated may file a complaint with the Ministry of Anti-Corruption and Good Governance (Secretaría Anticorrupción y Buen Gobierno).
Data transfers
Porto does not transfer personal data to third parties without the data subject's consent, except in the cases set out in Article 36 of the Law, including when the transfer is provided for by a law or treaty, when it is necessary under a contract entered into or to be entered into in the data subject's interest, or when it is required to maintain or perform the legal relationship with the data subject.
In the course of a mandate, Porto shares information with prospective buyers, investors or financial institutions only with the client's authorization and under confidentiality agreements.
Porto relies on service providers that process data on its behalf, such as email and website hosting services. Under the Law, these providers act as processors, and communicating data to them does not constitute a transfer.
Cookies and tracking technologies
This website does not use cookies, tracking pixels or analytics tools. Fonts and some images are loaded from external services (Google Fonts and Wikimedia Commons), which receive the browser's IP address in order to deliver those files; Porto does not receive or retain that information.
Security and retention
Porto applies administrative, technical and physical security measures to protect personal data against damage, loss, alteration, destruction or unauthorized use, access or processing, and retains it only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes of this notice and applicable legal obligations.
Changes to this privacy notice
Porto may amend this notice to reflect legal changes or changes in its services or practices. Changes will be published on this page with the date of the last update. When a change affects purposes that require consent, Porto will also notify by email the data subjects with whom it maintains a relationship.
