Until such information is linked to Salesforce or their organization, such information belongs to the Authorized User. If the Authorized User links an Object (as the term is defined in the Terms of Service), they acknowledge that they no longer have any rights of privacy or ownership over that information, and Scratchpad is under no obligation to ensure that private information belonging to Authorized User is not transferred to an Organizational Account’s control. Please carefully review your Objects, including “Notes,” to ensure that any information you link to Salesforce is information you are willing to share with your employer and/or complies with your employment agreement between you and the organization.

In certain circumstances, individuals may have the following rights under data protection law in relation to their personal information:
Scratchpad will take steps to ensure that it verifies your identity to a reasonable degree of certainty before it will process the data protection rights you want to exercise. When feasible, Scratchpad will match Customer or Account Data provided by you in submitting a request to exercise your rights with information already maintained by Scratchpad. This could include matching two or more data points you provide when you submit your request with two or more data points that are already maintained by us.
In accordance with the verification process set forth in the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”), Scratchpad will require a more stringent verification process for deletion requests, or for Account Data that is considered sensitive or valuable, to minimize the harm that might be posed to you by unauthorized access or deletion of your Account Data. If Scratchpad must request additional information from you outside of information that is already maintained by Scratchpad, Scratchpad will only use it for the purposes of verifying your identity so you can exercise your data protection rights, or for security and fraud-prevention purposes.
Scratchpad will decline to process requests that are manifestly unfounded, excessive, fraudulent, or are not otherwise required by local law.
