Security & compliance

Feedback you can trust, data you control

Customer feedback is sensitive by nature. Responsly treats every response like it's your own — protected by strong encryption, strict access controls, and privacy practices that keep you on the right side of GDPR and CCPA.

How we protect you

Security baked into every survey

Strong protection shouldn't slow your team down. Responsly pairs robust safeguards with the speed and ease your feedback program depends on.

Encryption everywhere

Responses travel over TLS 1.2+ and rest behind AES-256 encryption. Whether feedback is in transit from a respondent or stored in your workspace, it stays unreadable to anyone without access.

Access on your terms

Decide exactly who can view responses, build surveys, or manage billing. Role-based permissions, two-factor authentication, and single sign-on keep your workspace locked to the right people.

Hosting that fits your rules

Respondent data is hosted in the EU by default, where GDPR expects it to live. If your legal team requires data kept in the United States, US hosting is available on the Enterprise plan.

Review data residency

Compliance

Privacy regulations, handled

Collecting feedback shouldn't mean inheriting legal risk. We keep pace with evolving privacy laws so your program stays compliant as you grow.

Built for GDPR

Honor data-subject requests without the scramble. Responsly supports rectification, deletion, and export of personal data, and our Data Processing Agreement is ready whenever your DPO needs one.

Ready for CCPA

We keep our collection and processing practices aligned with US privacy law, so you can respond to consumer access and opt-out requests with confidence.

Built to WCAG 2.1 AA

Accessibility is part of compliance, not a nice-to-have. Surveys are keyboard operable end to end, fields carry explicit labels for screen readers, and default themes meet the 4.5:1 contrast minimum — the baseline public-sector buyers and organizations covered by the European Accessibility Act need.

Transparent by default

No hidden subprocessors or surprise data flows. Our subprocessor list documents who we work with and why, and our team answers security questionnaires directly — no black boxes.

Your security questions, answered

Who owns the data I collect through Responsly?

You do. Survey responses and contact data you gather belong to your organization. We act only as a processor and use that data solely to run the features you have enabled — never to train external models or resell to third parties.

How is my data encrypted?

Every connection to Responsly uses TLS 1.2 or higher, and stored data is encrypted at rest with AES-256. Payment details are handled by our PCI-compliant payment provider and are never written to our own databases.

Can I host respondent data inside the EU?

Yes, and it is the default. All respondent data is hosted in the EU. If your organization needs data kept in the United States, US hosting is available on the Enterprise plan.

Is a Data Processing Agreement available?

Yes. Our Data Processing Agreement applies on every plan, including during a free trial. You accept it electronically together with the Terms of Service, with no separate signature. Security measures are described in Annex 2 and current subprocessors in the subprocessor list. On the Enterprise plan we can agree a custom DPA.

How do you control who can access my workspace?

Workspaces support role-based permissions, two-factor authentication, and single sign-on, so admins decide exactly who sees responses, edits surveys, or manages billing.

How do I report a possible security issue?

Email help@responsly.com with the details and steps to reproduce. We practise responsible disclosure and will acknowledge your report quickly while we investigate.
