2.2  This authorization does not cover the following: opening or closing any account, changing my contact details or signing any new contract. It is limited to the matter in paragraph 1.1, it does not include any other transaction, and Carlos Garcia may not delegate it to anyone else.

6.1  I may withdraw this authorization at any time by written notice to you. It ends automatically when the matter is completed, when the period in paragraph 3.1 expires, or if I become unable to manage my affairs, and any act done after you have received my written withdrawal does not bind me.

7. Data and records

7.1  Please use the copies of the identity documents only to verify this authorization, keep them securely for the period your own rules require and do not share them for any other purpose. Please give Carlos Garcia only the documents, funds or information that relate to the matter in paragraph 1.1.
