Joe Hawkins will not request sensitive data unless they are adequate, relevant, and necessary for a legitimate purpose and their processing is authorized by law. Where applicable, the Data Subject will be informed that they are not required to authorize the processing of sensitive data, such data and their purposes will be expressly identified, and express consent will be obtained.

8.2 Data of children and adolescents

Joe Hawkins will endeavor not to deliberately collect personal data of children and adolescents, except when processing is permitted by applicable regulations, responds to and respects their best interests and fundamental rights, and the authorization of their legal representative is obtained where applicable, taking into account the minor's opinion according to their maturity and capacity to understand the matter.

The inclusion of a provider in this Policy does not imply that they always receive all personal data or that they necessarily act under a single legal capacity; their role will depend on the contracted service and the processing actually performed.

13. PROCEDURE FOR INQUIRIES AND COMPLAINTS

13.1 Inquiries

The Data Subject or their successors may inquire about the personal information contained in Joe Hawkins’ databases by submitting a request via the channels indicated in this Policy. Joe Hawkins may request the information reasonably necessary to verify the identity of the requester and their legitimacy.

The inquiry will be addressed within a maximum term of ten (10) business days from the date of receipt. When it is not possible to address it within said term, Joe Hawkins will inform the requester of the reasons for the delay and the date on which it will be addressed, which may not exceed five (5) business days following the expiration of the first term.

13.2 Complaints, correction, updating, deletion, and revocation

The Data Subject, their successors, or any person duly authorized may file a complaint when they believe that the information should be corrected, updated, or deleted, when requesting the revocation of the authorization in applicable cases, or when they identify a presumed breach of data protection regulations.

The complaint must contain, at a minimum:

• Identification of the Data Subject and, where applicable, proof of the requester's representation or legitimacy.

• Contact details for receiving a response.

• A clear description of the facts giving rise to the complaint and the right intended to be exercised.

• Any documents that the requester deems relevant.

If the complaint is incomplete, Joe Hawkins will require the interested party within five (5) days following its receipt to remedy the deficiencies. If two (2) months elapse from the request without the required information being provided, it will be understood that the Data Subject has withdrawn the complaint.

Once the complete complaint is received, a legend stating "complaint in progress" and the corresponding reason will be included in the database, where applicable, within a term not exceeding two (2) business days. The maximum term for addressing the complaint will be fifteen (15) business days from the day following its receipt. If it is not possible to address it within that term, the reasons for the delay and the new response date will be communicated, which may not exceed eight (8) business days following the expiration of the first term.


14. SECURITY AND CONFIDENTIALITY

Joe Hawkins will adopt administrative, human, and technical measures that are reasonable and proportional to the type of information processed to protect personal data against loss, unauthorized or fraudulent access, inquiry, use, tampering, modification, disclosure, or processing. Access to the information will be limited to the persons and third parties who require it for authorized or legally permitted purposes.

No information system or Internet transmission is absolutely foolproof. In the event of security incidents affecting personal data, Joe Hawkins will act in accordance with the applicable legal and regulatory obligations.


15. RETENTION AND DELETION OF INFORMATION

Personal data will be retained for the reasonable and necessary time to fulfill the purposes that justified its Processing and, subsequently, for the terms required or permitted by applicable regulations, including contractual, accounting, tax, labor, consumer protection, evidentiary, or claim handling obligations.

When the information is no longer necessary for the authorized purposes and there is no legal or contractual duty to retain it, Joe Hawkins will proceed with its deletion, anonymization, or blocking, as appropriate and technically reasonable.


16. VALIDITY AND MODIFICATIONS

This version of the Policy is updated as of September 2026 and will become effective upon its publication on the Joe Hawkins website. The databases will remain in effect for the time necessary to fulfill the purposes of the Processing and the associated legal obligations.

Joe Hawkins may modify this Policy to reflect legal, regulatory, technological, operational, or commercial changes. Any material change affecting the content of the authorization or the purposes of the Processing will be communicated to Data Subjects in a timely manner and, where appropriate, prior to its implementation and through an efficient mechanism.
