We receive information directly from you, from your browser and from the service providers involved in your request. Please avoid including sensitive personal data in forms or appointment notes. The website is intended for business enquiries, rather than services directed at children.

## Service providers and other recipients

Access is limited to people and providers who need the information for their work. The website implementation uses the following services:

- **Cloudflare** for hosting/delivery and website security.
- **hCaptcha** for anti-bot verification on contact, quote and newsletter forms. It processes technical data associated with the verification.
- **Resend** to send enquiry notifications and confirmation emails.
- **Twenty CRM**, accessed through Devife's CRM, to organise enquiries, contact details and project opportunities.
- **MailerLite** to manage newsletter subscribers, requested resources and email sequences.
- **Cal.com software**, served from calendar.devife.com, for appointment scheduling.
- **PostHog**, through e.devife.com with its EU service endpoint, for optional usage analytics. Analytics may include page views, clicks, performance measurements and form success/failure events. Rejecting analytics stops this optional capture.
- **Senja** to retrieve and display review information; loading review features can expose technical connection data to the provider.

Providers process data according to their role and applicable contractual arrangements. We may also disclose information where legally required or necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims. External links, such as social profiles, take you to services with their own privacy practices.

## Cookies and your choices

See our [cookie policy](https://devife.com/en/legal/cookie-policy) for cookie names, purposes, storage periods and controls. Optional analytics requires your choice in the cookie banner. You can withdraw that choice through **Cookie settings** in the footer. Browsing this website is not consent to analytics or newsletters. Newsletter emails provide an unsubscribe option; you can also contact us.

## International processing

Providers may process information outside the European Economic Area. Where a transfer is subject to GDPR transfer rules, an applicable adequacy decision or appropriate safeguards, such as European Commission standard contractual clauses with any necessary supplementary measures, are required. A European endpoint alone does not establish that all processing remains within Europe. Contact us for information about safeguards relevant to your data.

## Retention

Retention depends on the purpose and applicable obligations. Enquiry and appointment data is kept while needed to handle the request and reasonable follow-up; client records while needed for the engagement, administration and potential claims; and billing records for the legally required period. Newsletter data is kept while the subscription remains active, with limited suppression information where needed to respect an unsubscribe. Technical logs and analytics are kept for the period needed for security or analysis, rather than indefinitely. Cookie lifetimes are listed separately in the cookie policy. Contact us for the retention period or criteria applicable to a particular record.

## Your rights

Depending on the circumstances, you can request access, correction, deletion, restriction or portability of your personal data. You can object to processing based on legitimate interests and to direct marketing. You can withdraw consent at any time without affecting processing lawfully carried out before withdrawal.

Email [info@devife.com](mailto:info@devife.com). We may request proportionate information to verify your identity. We normally respond within one month; if a permitted extension is necessary, we explain it within that month. You may complain to the [Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens](https://autoriteitpersoonsgegevens.nl/) or your competent supervisory authority.

Providing contact details is necessary to respond to your enquiry; without the required information we may be unable to handle it. Optional details are voluntary. We do not use the website's enquiry or analytics features to make solely automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects.

## Security, client data and updates

We use technical and organisational safeguards appropriate to the risks. No online system can guarantee absolute security. If Devife processes personal data on a client's instructions while delivering a project, that processing belongs in a separate [data processing agreement](https://devife.com/en/legal/data-processing-agreement), rather than this policy alone.

We may update this policy when practices or requirements change. The date above identifies this version; material changes will be communicated where required.
