Our approach to data security

ResponseiQ (registered as Response iQ LTD) is an intelligent calling platform that puts customer security at the centre of their operations. ResponseiQ holds a Cyber Essentials certification.

ResponseiQ has two main products. The first is a callback widget that allows customers to add a widget to their website that enables their website visitors to request an instant callback or schedule one for a time that works for them. Our second product is Instant Lead Response. This product allows you to integrate ResponseiQ with any forms you have on your website. Once a user submits a form our platform will then instantly generate a call to the user or if it is outside working hours we will schedule a call for the next day.

What call related data does ResponseiQ process and store?

When calls or attempted calls are generated by the ResponseiQ platform we store and process certain caller data. This data includes:

Phone Number - the number a user uses to request a call

Device - the device the user is using when they request a call copy

Browser - the browser the user is using when they request a call

URL of call page - the URL of the page the user is on when they request a call

Source - the source of where the user came to the customer's website from.

Location - the geographical location of the user when they request a call.

Time Zone - the time zone of the user.

Call Recording (optional) - recordings of calls made using ResponseiQ.

Duration - duration of calls.

Agent - the agent who answered the users call.

Date and time - the date and time the user requested the call or scheduled the call.

Anonymized IP address - We only store an anonymised version of the IP

the same way Google Analytics is storing IPs in a GDPR compliant way.

Where does ResponseiQ store data?

For backup purposes, snapshots of the data are further encrypted and backed up across Google Cloud Platform within other EEA countries to increase resilience, the transfer is governed by a Data Processing Addendum.

ResponseiQ stores:

  • backup data for 30 days,

  • call recordings and call debugging information (PCAPs) for 90 days,

  • call related data as described in a previous section until the customer account is terminated.

Customers can request all their data to be removed at any time.

How Does ResponseiQ safeguard data?

On the technical side, ResponseiQ encrypts data at rest using a set of rotating AES 128-bit keys and has a number of security procedures to ensure the safety and integrity of its data.
