Every document signed with Scrive eSign services includes information about the individuals sending, receiving and signing it and as long as the data resides with us, it is our job to protect it from unlawful access and use. What is personal data? The GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation, regulation (EU) 2016/679) defines personal data as “any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person”. The natural person, such as yourself, is referred to as a “data subject” and you may be identified (or are identifiable) via information like your name, your personal identification number, but also via e.g. an IP-address, genetic data etc. “Sensitive personal data” are by their nature, particularly sensitive for you. It requires specific protection to avoid significant risks to your fundamental rights and freedoms. This includes, among other things, personal data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs. Data protection law. As a Swedish company, Scrive is governed by the laws of Sweden which, as from May 25th 2018 includes the GDPR. The GDPR describes how organisations, such as Scrive, must “process” (collect, handle and store) personal data. Rules on data protection apply regardless of whether personal data is stored electronically, on paper or on other materials. Organisations that process your personal data are obliged to do that in accordance with strict regulations. Similar regulations have been in force even prior the GDPR, but now the law, and the serious economic consequences of not adhering to the law, are the same for the whole of the EU. An organization that determines the purposes of the processing is called “controller“, whereas an organization that the controller has engaged to assist in the processing is called a “processor”. Processing in Scrive eSign What roles do Scrive have? Scrive offers the Scrive eSign service though different business models, and the responsibility for the processing of personal data depends to some extent on how the services are provided, and to whom. Scrive’s responsibility for the different categories of data subjects that may take part in an electronic signature process within Scrive eSign (“Scrive eSign workflow”) is as described below: (i) Scrive Users: representatives of Scrive customers with an individual admin or user account registered in Scrive eSign subject to a valid license agreement between Scrive and the Scrive customer. Scrive Users may initiate Scrive eSign workflows, receive invitations to take part in Scrive eSign workflows initiated by a third party, and retain their signed documents and templates in their e-archive within Scrive eSign. Scrive may contact Scrive Users through Scrive eSign or through a representative, via phone or email in order to give updates on our products, services or concerning other account related issues. Scrive is a processor on behalf of Scrive’s customers. The legal basis to process personal data of Scrive Users is the necessity to provide the services under the Scrive eSign License Agreement between Scrive and the Scrive customer. We may also use personal data of Scrive Users for marketing and sales purposes. Scrive may contact Scrive Users through Scrive eSign or through a sales representative of Scrive, via phone or email in order to give you updates on other products or other materials Scrive deems may be interesting to you. When we process personal data for marketing and sales purposes we make a legitimate interest assessment, by taking into consideration our existing relationship with you, whether it would be reasonably expected by you that the processing takes place and whether we can fulfil the same business outcome without processing personal data. We do not process personal data for marketing and sales purposes that do not pass this criteria. (ii) Representatives of Scrive resellers’ customers: representatives of Scrive resellers’ customers with an individual admin or user account registered in Scrive eSign subject to a valid sub-license agreement with an authorized reseller of Scrive eSign. Representatives of Scrive resellers’ customers may initiate Scrive eSign workflows, receive invitations to take part in Scrive eSign workflows initiated by a third party, and retain their documents in their e-archive within Scrive eSign. Scrive is a subprocessor of the Scrive reseller who in turn processes personal data on behalf of their customer. Scrive may contact representatives of Scrive resellers’ customers through Scrive eSign or through a representative, via phone or email in order to give updates on our products, services or concerning other account related issues. The legal basis to process Scrive reseller customer representatives’ personal data is to provide the services under the Scrive eSign Sub-License Agreement between us and the reseller. (iii) Private account holders: individuals that have opted in for a limited, cost-free account in Scrive eSign. When a private account holder signs a document in Scrive eSign, this will be retained within that party’s own e-archive within Scrive eSign. Private account holders may only initiate Scrive eSign workflows through Scrive eSign subject to such restrictions for cost-free accounts as Scrive maintains from time to time. For private account holders, Scrive primarily acts as a controller due to the service being provided cost-free and that Scrive may single handedly re-determine the terms for the free account, or withdraw the same at any time. Thus, Scrive reserves the right to terminate the account of an inactive private account holder. In case of such termination, Scrive will provide due pre-warning to the email registered in the account and enable the private account holder to offboard the contents or their account prior to final deletion thereof. The legal basis to process Scrive Private account holders’ personal data is to provide the services under the Terms of Service that the private account holder agreed to before creating a Scrive account. (iv) External Scrive eSign users: individuals that have received an invitation message to review or sign a document made available through Scrive eSign, and that have no account of their own within Scrive eSign. (An external Scrive eSign user may opt in to become a private account holder in Scrive eSign.) External Scrive eSign users only take part in a Scrive eSign workflow when so invited. Scrive remains a processor, or subprocessor, on behalf of the customer that initiated the specific electronic signature process. The legal basis to process External Scrive eSign users’ personal data is to provide the services under the Scrive eSign License Agreement between Scrive and the controller. N.b. should Scrive itself be the initiator of the Scrive eSign workflow, then Scrive is the controller, in which case the legal basis is the necessity for the performance of a contract between us and the recipient of the Scrive eSign workflow. Is my data secure with Scrive? Security is a core value of Scrive. Ensuring the security of customer and company data is important as our customers, employees and partners hold us in a position of trust with their confidential data. Scrive applies the principles of Privacy by design and Privacy by default in developing, maintaining and providing the Scrive eSign service, as well as in the handling of personal data for other purposes. To this end Scrive has implemented information security management and data protection policies covering i.a. acceptable use, access control, operations, technology, applications, data management, business continuity and physical security. The rules and controls within these policies are considered the security baseline for information assets owned/controlled or otherwise processed by Scrive. Such policy documentation may be provided upon request. The policies and processes relating to information security are subject to at least yearly management reviews. What security measures has Scrive implemented? Scrive continuously educates staff on security. 2FA login, VPN, individual accounts, and activity logging are implemented as appropriate for employees with access to Scrive’s infrastructure and for employees with customer support tasks in the system. Access to systems is given to employees on a need-to-have basis and is governed by an approval process. Testing and production environments are separated, and data is never transferred between them. For the actual servers, Scrive has firewalls, anti-virus and encrypted communication where feasible and reasonable. All documents are individually encrypted with keys stored in a different geographical site from the documents and the key storage itself is also encrypted. The security of the system as a whole is regularly tested by means of penetration tests performed by a third party. The data centers used by Scrive have appropriate levels of security and are certified with ISO-27001, amongst other standards. How is personal data processed within Scrive eSign?

Third country transfers In delivering its services Scrive does not transfer personal data outside of the EU/EEA within the context of providing our service.

Scrive has no way of knowing where the recipient of the email and/or SMS notifications (invitations, reminders, confirmations) sent through Scrive eSign will be located geographically, some recipients may therefore be located in a region outside of the EU/EEA. Therefore, such transfer of personal data to third countries is necessary for the performance or conclusion of a contract (signing a document electronically) in the interest of a data subject or that a data subject is a party to.
