My question is similar to this, but I'm writing from a developer's perspective rather than the company's.
I prefer to keep my personal and professional lives separate, and thus would like to be able to create Facebook apps not tied to my personal FB account. Per FB policies, each account must be associated to a real person, i.e. I can't have a separate developer account. Is there a way to create FB apps without using my personal account? Do you other freelancers (or even non-freelancers) just use your personal accounts? If so, do you have any qualms about doing this? If I'm going to be collaborating with other developers, do I need to worry about sharing any personal information with them?
Thanks.

Step 1: Sign UpVisit the 'create an account' page. Facebook will then give you the option to select the type of page you want to create: business and brand or community and public figure. As we are setting up the account for business purposes, go ahead and click the 'Get Started' button for that option.
Creating a company account or another account is against Facebook's term of service:
You will not provide any false personal information on Facebook, or create an account for anyone other than yourself without permission.

You can't create application without being authorized developer which require either providing Facebook with your mobile phone or credit card.
Answer to the question you stated as similar is perfectly fits here too...
As for the other developers that need to work on your app you can add them with role Developer/Beta Tester based on your needs (and not Admin) in Developer Application and carefully choosing only persons you trust have permissions to modify your application settings. Once Developers/Beta-Testers finish the work you should remove 'em.
