Motex collaborates with its clients and uses public information for that purpose. Processing of the data contained in court case files is based on assisting the client — or its lawyer — in legitimately exercising its right to sue or to defend itself, in cases that concern it. The purpose is not to exploit judicial data for its own sake: it is instrumental to that right of action or defense.
The information processed is public. Court proceedings are public, except for the exceptions the law expressly establishes (Código Orgánico de Tribunales — Judicial Organization Code —, Article 9).
The content of a court case file may include, depending on the case, data about the parties, matters, rulings, and convictions. The legal definition of "sensitive data" set out in Ley N.º 21.719 — ethnic or racial origin, political, union, or trade affiliation, socioeconomic status, convictions, religious beliefs, health, biometric data, sex life, sexual orientation, and gender identity (Article 2, letter g, new) — does not mention, in its literal text, data on judicial proceedings, convictions, or infractions as a separate category. This is a point Motex treats with caution and not as settled: the reading that this data is not "sensitive" on its own is an interpretation still pending validation with legal advice, not a certainty, and in any case a labor or family case file may also reveal some of the data that is listed in the legal definition.
Separately, the Judiciary’s own electronic case-management system has its own rules on the processing of the personal data it contains: Ley N.º 20.886 (Electronic Judicial Case-Management Law) subjects that processing to specific conditions, including an express prohibition on mass processing of that data without prior authorization (Article 2, letter c). Motex’s position is that its processing falls within the purpose described above — assisting the client in exercising its right of action or defense. This framing is Motex’s own criterion and is pending legal validation before this policy’s final publication.
