Privacy Policy

1. Scope and Entity

This Privacy Policy governs the digital practices of Echor Develops (“the studio,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), operating from New York, NY, across the website located at echordevelops.com and direct client communication channels.

2. Information We Collect

We adhere to a strict data minimization standard. The only information we collect consists of:

• Voluntary Inquiries: When you initiate contact via email or submit a project scope inquiry, we collect your name, business email address, phone number (if provided), company name, and the operational details of your project.
• Operational Communications: Correspondence, specifications, and project assets shared during an active proposal, estimate, or development engagement.
• Edge Infrastructure Telemetry: Standard, non-identifying server logs processed by Cloudflare (such as IP address, browser user-agent, operating system, and timestamp) solely for DDoS mitigation, edge caching, and firewall security.

3. Zero Data Brokering and Monetization Guarantee

We operate an engineering studio, not an advertising or data-collection business. We do not sell, rent, license, trade, or monetize your personal or commercial data to third-party data brokers, ad exchanges, or marketing aggregators under any circumstances.

4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

This website does not load third-party cross-site advertising trackers, behavioral profiling scripts, or social network tracking pixels (such as the Meta Pixel or Google Ads tracking). Any cookies deployed are strictly functional and security-related, managed directly by Cloudflare to ensure edge security and bot protection.

5. Infrastructure and Sub-processors

To deliver high-availability hosting and secure digital communications, we rely on enterprise-grade infrastructure providers who process data strictly under our instruction:

• Cloudflare, Inc.: Global CDN edge hosting, DNS routing, and web application firewall security.
• Google Workspace: Direct email communication and document storage for active client deliverables.

6. Retention and Security Practices

Project scoping inquiries and active client communications are retained only as long as necessary to fulfill project requirements, maintain accounting records, or satisfy legal obligations. Client codebase repositories and credentials are encrypted and stored in isolated client accounts.

7. Your Rights and Deletion Requests

You retain the right to review, update, or request the permanent deletion of your contact information and inquiry records from our studio systems at any time. To exercise these rights, send a written request to [email protected]. We respond to and process all verified requests within five (5) business days.

8. Governing Law and Policy Updates

This policy is governed by the laws of the State of New York, United States. Any updates or revisions to this policy will be posted directly to this URL with an updated revision date.
