How the web chat support is accessible
Engage Process provides web-based chat functionality accessible through a standard web browser via our website. The chat allows users to contact the support team to ask questions, report issues, and request assistance related to the service. Users can submit messages and receive responses during supported hours without installing additional software. The chat does not provide real-time system administration, configuration changes, or access to service data. Support staff respond using authorised accounts, and conversations are used solely for support and service-related communication. Where required, issues raised via web chat may be progressed through formal support or incident management processes for resolution.
Web chat accessibility testing
Engage Process uses HubSpot web chat as part of its website technology. We have not conducted formal usability testing of the web chat specifically with assistive technology users. However, the chat has been used in live environments by our customer base, including users accessing the service through standard web browsers and common accessibility tools. HubSpot provides accessibility features as part of its platform, and we rely on the vendor’s ongoing accessibility improvements and compliance commitments. Accessibility considerations are reviewed as part of wider website updates, and feedback received through customer interactions is used to inform future improvements where appropriate.

End-of-contract data extraction
This can be done through a wide variety of export possibilities. All 'common' formats are supported: ao MS formats (Word, PPT, Excel, Etc.), XPDL, BPMN, Visio.

Next to this data will also be kept online for 6 months beyond the contract end.
End-of-contract process
3 months before the end of each contract one of Engage Process' Account Managers will contact your organisation to check if and how you would want to proceed for next term. If a contract is cancelled this leaves us plenty of time to support with the transition, no additional charges are made for this.
All customers can export their data free of charge using built-in export tools, with no vendor lock-in. Data exports are included within the contract price and are provided in commonly used formats to ensure portability. There are no additional costs associated with contract exit, data extraction, or off-boarding. Once the contract has ended and data export is complete, customer data is managed in line with contractual and legal obligations.

Information security policies and processes
Engage Process follows documented information security policies to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of customer data. Overall responsibility sits with the Chief Technology Officer (CTO), a member of the Management Team. The CTO oversees compliance with data protection and privacy regulations and ensures policies are implemented across the organisation. In the event of a suspected or actual security incident, the CTO leads investigation, root cause analysis, and corrective actions, reporting findings to the Management Team. Serious incidents are escalated to the CEO. All incidents are documented, corrective actions implemented promptly, and affected parties notified in line with GDPR requirements. Policies are reviewed and updated as required.

Operational security

Configuration and change management standard
Supplier-defined controls
Configuration and change management approach
Configuration and change management for Engage Process is controlled through documented procedures and version-controlled deployments. All application, infrastructure, and database components are tracked throughout their lifecycle using Git repositories in Azure DevOps, providing full version history, traceability, and rollback capability. Changes are implemented by authorised technical staff only, following approved deployment scripts reused across test, staging, and production environments. Proposed changes are assessed by senior developers and the CTO for operational and security impact, including access controls, data handling, and platform configuration. Security-relevant changes follow a four-eyes review principle and are logged via Azure DevOps audit trails.
Vulnerability management type
Supplier-defined controls
Vulnerability management approach
Engage operates a proactive vulnerability management process. Potential threats are assessed using automated vulnerability detection within development tools, Microsoft Azure security monitoring for all PaaS services, and ongoing developer review during development/maintenance. Information on emerging threats is sourced from Microsoft Azure security advisories, built-in tooling alerts, and industry best practice awareness within the development team. Azure-managed services are patched automatically by Microsoft, ensuring timely deployment of security updates. Application dependencies and the single internally managed virtual machine are patched by authorised senior developers, with critical vulnerabilities prioritized/remediated as soon as practicable. All fixes are verified through testing and monitored post-deployment.
Protective monitoring type
Supplier-defined controls
Protective monitoring approach
Engage Process uses protective monitoring to detect, respond, and manage potential compromises. Infrastructure and application activity is monitored using Azure Monitor, Application Insights, and Log Analytics, alongside application-level error reporting and usage trend analysis to identify anomalies or unusual behaviour. Alerts are generated automatically and reviewed by authorised technical staff. When a potential compromise is identified, incidents are triaged immediately, investigated using log/monitoring data, and escalated based on severity. Critical incidents are responded to as soon as they are detected, with mitigation actions initiated without delay. Monitoring effectiveness is reviewed regularly by senior technical staff and the Information Security Officer.
Incident management type
Supplier-defined controls
Post-quantum cryptography secure
No
Incident management approach
Engage Process operates pre-defined incident management processes for common operational and security events. Incidents are identified through automated Azure monitoring alerts, application error notifications, customer reports, and manual log review. Users report incidents via established support channels, including email and direct contact. All incidents are logged, tracked, and prioritised based on impact and severity, with critical issues addressed immediately by the technical team under senior oversight. When incidents affect users, incident reports and status updates are provided through appropriate communication channels, detailing impact, actions taken, and resolution. Post-incident reviews identify root causes and drive improvements to prevent recurrence
