In order to ensure the proper execution of the Access Contract, the parties undertake to cooperate by exchanging any information and taking any necessary or useful measures to ensure regularity of services. The official language to be used for communications or exchanging information is Italian. In this respect, the RU guarantees that its staff has sufficient knowledge of this language to ensure full compliance with the written and/or oral safety instructions and for exchanging information, under both normal or disrupted operating conditions. The parties undertake to maintain the confidentiality, vis-à-vis any third parties, of the data, information, documents and studies with which they have become acquainted, in connection with the execution of the Access Contract, without prejudice to the cases expressly provided for under the applicable legislation. Each party shall consider all the documents, plans and other commercial or technical data received from the other, or which has come to their knowledge in connection with the execution of the agreement, as strictly confidential, and undertakes to utilise them solely for the purposes agreed to. The information related to each agreement shall be divulged solely to the contracting RU; the RUs shall then take on the responsibility of making any disclosures to third parties. The information obligations of IM and RU towards passengers comply with the provisions of Regulation (EC) 1371/2007 of the European Parliament and of the Council and with those of the Authority's resolution no. 106/2018. If the IM has been entrusted with Station Management functions by the Regional Authority of Umbria and rejects a complaint from railway transport users due to the fact that the complaint pertains to areas of competence of the RU, it shall transmit this complaint to the RU and at the same time shall inform the user of this measure. The RU is required to provide a response to the user, adopting the methods and timing specifically defined for a response to a complaint as referred to in TRA Resolution 28/2021. The same obligation is provided for in the event that the RU refuses a complaint from railway transport users as the complaint falls within the range of competence of the IM. In the latter case, the IM itself will provide a response to the user. The methods adopted for the transmission of complaints rejected on account of the relative spheres of competence will be the subject of a specific memorandum of understanding established between the IM and the RU.
