Privacy Policy
Effective November 10, 2026.
Who we are: FOP Cat LLC (“FOP Cat,” “we,” “us,” “our”), a North Carolina limited liability company, operates devdev.fi (“the Site”) as its marketing site. FOP Cat LLC, 500 Westover Drive, PMB 35460, Sanford, NC 27330, United States.
Contact: privacy and general requests: privacy@devdev.fi or support@devdev.fi.
We collect only what we need, keep it only as long as necessary, and never sell it.
Quick summary
- We do not sell personal data, and we do not share it for advertising. The Site has no advertising cookies, social pixels or session replay.
- If you send us a form, we store what you send and email it to our team.
- We use a small set of providers to run the Site: Cloudflare, Resend, Google and, for scheduling calls, Google Workspace.
- Analytics: Cloudflare Web Analytics counts visits without cookies. Google Analytics runs only according to your choice in the cookie banner.
- You can ask to access, correct or delete your data at any time.
What this policy covers
This policy explains how we handle personal data when you visit devdev.fi, contact us, ask for a discovery call, or apply for a job. It does not cover other websites that we link to, such as LinkedIn or Google.
The data we collect
1. What you send us
- Contact form: name, company, email address, phone number, your message and any files you attach.
- Job application: your name and preferred name, email, phone, the role, location and pay expectation, LinkedIn, GitHub and portfolio links, work eligibility and hours you are available, years of experience, your CV and cover letter, your written answers, and the contact details of one professional reference. If you give us a reference’s details, please make sure they are happy for you to do so.
- Emails and calls: what you write to us, and notes we take on a discovery call.
2. What we collect automatically
- Security and server data: IP address, browser and device type, pages requested and timestamps. This is processed by Cloudflare, which delivers and protects the Site. If a visitor requests pages that do not exist on the Site and that only vulnerability scanners ask for, we add that IP address to a block list.
- Form protection: when you send a form, Cloudflare Turnstile checks that you are a person. It receives signals from your browser to do that. To limit abuse, we store a salted, one-way hash of your IP address with the submission. We cannot read your IP address from it.
- Analytics: Cloudflare Web Analytics reports page views without cookies. Google Analytics, if you allow it, uses cookies to report how the Site is used.
- Browser storage: your analytics choice and your light or dark theme, kept on your device. The full list is in the cookie policy for your region.
How we use your data
- To answer your message, arrange a call and prepare a proposal.
- To evaluate job applications, contact references and manage hiring records.
- To run, secure and protect the Site from spam and attacks.
- To understand how the Site is used and improve it.
- To meet legal, tax and accounting obligations.
Legal bases (EEA, UK and Switzerland)
- Contract and steps before a contract: replying to your enquiry, preparing a proposal and processing a job application.
- Consent: Google Analytics cookies. You can withdraw consent at any time with the Cookie settings link in the footer.
- Legitimate interests: Site security, spam prevention, basic cookieless analytics and replying to requests, balanced against your rights.
- Legal obligation: record keeping and responding to lawful requests.
Cookies and similar technologies
The Site stores two things on your device (your analytics choice and your theme). Google Analytics adds cookies only if you allow it, or, outside the EU, EEA, UK and Switzerland, until you opt out. Cloudflare may set a short-lived security cookie. You can change your choice at any time: use Cookie settings in the footer or the opt-out preferences page.
Who we share data with
We do not sell personal data. We share it only with:
- Service providers that process data on our behalf: Cloudflare (hosting, content delivery, security, Turnstile, Web Analytics, and storage of form submissions and uploaded files); Resend (sending the email that tells our team about a form); Google (Analytics, if you allow it; and Google Workspace for email, calendar, video calls and documents).
- Professional advisers such as lawyers and accountants, under confidentiality.
- Authorities when the law requires it.
- A buyer or successor if FOP Cat LLC is merged or sold, with the same protections.
Our providers may not use your data for their own advertising.
International transfers
We are in the United States, and our providers operate globally. When personal data leaves the EEA, the UK or Switzerland, we rely on appropriate safeguards, such as the Standard Contractual Clauses and the UK Addendum, or an adequacy decision where one applies, together with technical and organizational measures.
How long we keep data
- Contact form submissions and related correspondence: up to 24 months after the conversation ends.
- Job applications: up to 24 months after the hiring process ends, or sooner if you ask us to delete them and the law allows it.
- Hashed IP address stored with a submission: as long as the submission.
- Security and server logs: kept by Cloudflare for its standard period; blocked addresses stay on our block list until we review it.
- Google Analytics data: up to 14 months.
- Records we must keep for tax or legal reasons: as the law requires.
Your rights and choices
EEA, UK and Switzerland
You can ask to access, correct, delete or restrict your data, object to processing, receive it in a portable format, and withdraw consent at any time. To use these rights, email privacy@devdev.fi. You can also complain to your local data protection authority.
United States (California and other states)
You may have rights to know, access, correct and delete personal information, and to opt out of its sale or sharing for targeted advertising. We do not sell personal information and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. To make a request, email privacy@devdev.fi with the subject “Privacy Request.” We will verify your request and respond within the time the law requires. If we decline, we will explain how to appeal. You may use an authorized agent; we will need proof of their authorization.
Canada and Australia
You can ask to see and correct the personal information we hold about you, and to complain about how we handle it. Email privacy@devdev.fi. You can also contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada or the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner.
Security
We use encryption in transit, least-privilege access, secure configurations and confidentiality obligations. No system is perfectly secure. If we learn of a breach that affects you, we will tell you when the law requires it.
Children
The Site is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their data. If you believe a child has sent us data, email privacy@devdev.fi and we will delete it.
Automated decision-making
We do not make decisions with legal or similarly significant effects about you by automated means alone. Spam and abuse filtering on forms does not decide anything about you beyond whether to accept a submission.
California notice at collection
In the last 12 months we collected these categories of personal information, for the purposes above: identifiers (name, email, phone, IP address); commercial and professional information (company, role, job application content); internet or network activity (pages viewed, diagnostics); and approximate location derived from your IP address. We do not sell or share this information and we keep it for the periods listed above.
Changes to this policy
If we make material changes, we update the effective date above and, where appropriate, tell you on the Site.
Our service providers
- Cloudflare: hosting, content delivery, security, Turnstile, Web Analytics, form data and file storage.
- Resend: email delivery.
- Google: Analytics (with your choice), Workspace (email, calendar, video calls, documents).
