- Consent: You have given your consent for processing Personal Data for one or more specific purposes.
- Performance of a contract: Provision of Personal Data is necessary for the performance of an agreement with you and/or for any pre-contractual obligations thereof.

In any case, ScribeCount will gladly help to clarify the specific legal basis that applies to the processing, and in particular whether the provision of Personal Data is a statutory or contractual requirement, or a requirement necessary to enter into a contract.
Your Rights under the GDPR
The Company undertakes to respect the confidentiality of your Personal Data and to guarantee you can exercise your rights.
You have the right under this Privacy Policy, and by law if you are within the EU, to:
- Request access to your Personal Data. The right to access, update or delete the information We have on You. Whenever made possible, you can access, update or request deletion of your Personal Data directly within your account settings section. If you are unable to perform these actions yourself, please contact ScribeCount to assist you. This also enables you to receive a copy of the Personal Data ScribeCount holds about you.
- Request correction of the Personal Data that ScribeCount holds about you. You have the right to have any incomplete or inaccurate information ScribeCount holds about you corrected.
- Object to processing of your Personal Data. This right exists where ScribeCount is relying on a legitimate interest as the legal basis for processing and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to our processing of your Personal Data on this ground. You also have the right to object where ScribeCount is processing your Personal Data for direct marketing purposes.
- Request erasure of your Personal Data. You have the right to ask ScribeCount to delete or remove Personal Data when there is no good reason for ScribeCount to continue processing it.
- Request the transfer of your Personal Data. We will provide to you, or to a third-party you have chosen, your Personal Data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Please note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for ScribeCount to use or where ScribeCount used the information to perform a contract with you.
- Withdraw Your consent. You have the right to withdraw your consent on using your Personal Data. However, should you withdraw your consent, ScribeCount will not be able to provide you with access to certain specific functionalities of the service.
