Transfers governed by the KVKK are carried out in accordance with Articles 8 and 9 of the Law, as explained in our Protection of Personal Data page.

It should be read together with our Privacy Policy and our Protection of Personal Data page. By using our Website, you agree to the use of strictly necessary cookies. Other cookies are only used where you give your consent through our cookie banner. You can change your preferences at any time (see Section 6). Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device (computer, tablet or phone) when you visit it. They are widely used to make websites work, to make them work more efficiently, and to provide information to the website owner. Similar technologies — such as pixels, tags and local storage — work in comparable ways, and references to "cookies" in this policy include those technologies. Cookies may be: Session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser; or Persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. They may also be: First-party cookies, set by us; or Third-party cookies, set by other providers whose services appear on our Website. We use cookies to: make the Website function and keep it secure; remember your preferences, such as your language; understand how visitors use the Website so we can improve it; measure the performance of our content and, where you consent, our marketing. Strictly necessary cookies These are essential for the Website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as submitting a form, setting privacy preferences, or keeping your session secure. Without them, parts of the Website will not work. These do not require consent. Functional / preference cookies These allow the Website to remember choices you make (such as your language or region) to provide a more personalized experience. Analytics / performance cookies These help us understand how visitors interact with the Website — for example, which pages are visited most — by collecting information on an aggregated basis. This helps us improve how the Website works. Marketing / advertising cookies These may be set through our Website by us or our advertising partners to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant content on other sites. They may also be used by social media platforms (such as Facebook/Instagram) to measure and target advertising. Analytics and marketing cookies are only used with your consent. The table below lists the types of cookies we use. Cookie names and providers can change over time; we recommend confirming the exact list with a cookie-scanning tool and updating this table accordingly.

On our Website: you can accept, reject or customize non-essential cookies through our cookie banner, and change your choice at any time via the cookie-settings link. In your browser: most browsers let you view, block or delete cookies through their settings. Instructions are usually found in the browser's "Help" or "Privacy" section. Please note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may cause parts of the Website to stop working. Analytics/advertising opt-outs: you can also opt out of certain third-party analytics and advertising cookies through the tools those providers offer. Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. There is currently no common industry standard for how to respond to DNT signals, and our Website may not respond to them.
