  • The Data Subject or their heirs, upon accreditation of their identity, or through electronic means that allow for identification.
    • Their representative, upon accreditation of representation. When the request is made by a person other than the Data Subject and it is not proven that the person acts on behalf of the Data Subject, it will be considered as not presented.
