How we collect data
We collect personal data electronically, partly by automated means, through the forms you fill in, the actions you take in your account, the e-mails you send us and the technical information your browser or device sends automatically (including cookies and similar technologies).
Who we share data with
We do not sell or rent your data to anyone for their own purposes. To run the service we share data only with the following providers, and only as far as their service requires:
| Provider | Purpose | Location |
|---|---|---|
| Google Firebase Hosting (Google LLC) | Hosting and serving the website | Global content delivery network |
| Google reCAPTCHA / Firebase App Check | Bot and abuse protection | United States |
| Google Analytics 4 (Google Ireland Ltd., Google LLC) | Visit statistics — only with your consent | EU and/or US |
| Google AdSense (Google Ireland Ltd., Google LLC) | Showing ads — personalised only with your consent | EU and/or US |
We also disclose information to competent public authorities and courts only where there is a lawful request or legal obligation.
International transfers
Some of the providers above process data on servers outside Türkiye (in the EU, the US and other countries). Under Article 9 of the KVKK these transfers rely on appropriate safeguards such as standard contracts and the providers' data processing terms, and, for occasional transfers where these cannot be used, on the cases in Article 9(6) (necessity for the performance of a contract or explicit consent). For users in the European Economic Area, transfers rely on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses and, where the provider is certified, the EU–US Data Privacy Framework.
How long we keep data
We keep data for the period stated in the table above or, if none is stated, for as long as the purpose requires. We then delete, destroy or anonymise it. Copies in backups are removed within the backup cycle (at most 35 days). Payment records that tax and commercial law require us to keep are retained for the statutory period (up to 10 years).
Security
Connections are encrypted with HTTPS; database access is restricted by roles and rules; administrative access is kept to a minimum and logged. No system is perfect; if a breach affects your personal data we will notify the competent authority and you as required by KVKK Art. 12(5) and GDPR Arts. 33–34.
Children
The service is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect their data. Users aged 13–18 should use it with a parent's permission. If you believe a child has given us data, tell us and we will delete it.
