The cryptographic device that contains your digital certificate is personal and non-transmissible use. Remember that your certificate is your identity in the virtual world! Do not give to others your card or token containing your certificate, or provide the access codes (PIN and PUK), as they are unique to use with your certificate.
NOTE: By facilitating your certificate together with your passwords (PIN and PUK), the holder can, for example, create legal documents on your behalf, among others.
The cryptographic device should only be used when performing a digital signature. The digital certificate replaces your handwritten signature, as such, identifies the person who holds it.
In case of loss of the device, inform DigitalSign as soon as possible, so we can proceed to the revocation of it. Revocation action should be made by the holder. Following revocation, your certificate will no longer be valid and, therefore, you will need to purchase another.
Take care of your device containing your certificate, bend it, do not damage the chip, exposing it to heat or water, if your device does not run for misuse, your certificate will be unusable.
DigitalSign, is not responsible for misuse of the certificate and the mismanagement of the cryptographic device.
When in doubt, contact DigitalSign Support operator, which will help you as best as possible.
