VINTEGRIS is responsible for compliance by the Assistant-manager of the obligations that VINTEGRIS assumes in these General Conditions.

VINTEGRIS may interact with new Sub-managers. VINTEGRIS will provide the Client with a notification (by updating the website and providing the client with a method to obtain notification of such update) of any new Sub-manager at least fourteen (14) days before providing the Sub-manager with access to the Client’s Data or Personal information.
If the Client does not approve the incorporation of a new Sub-manager, the Client may terminate the subscription related to the affected Service, without any penalty.
