Cookie Policy

1. What is a cookie?

Cookies are small text files saved in your browser when you visit a website. The browser’s local storage (localStorage) and session storage (sessionStorage) store information in your browser in a similar way; this policy covers them all together.

This English version is provided for convenience; if there is any difference, the Turkish version prevails.

2. Cookie types and consent

We group the entries we use into three categories by purpose:

• Strictly necessary: required for the website to work, for security and for remembering your choices (cookie preference, pop-ups you closed). No consent is requested for these and they cannot be turned off.
• Analytics: measure how the website is used. They run only if you give permission.
• Marketing: for ad measurement and personalization. They run only if you give permission.

When you first visit the website, a cookie notice appears. The “Reject” and “Accept” buttons sit side by side with equal weight; with “Set preferences” you can choose analytics and marketing cookies separately. Before you make a choice, only strictly necessary entries are used.

3. Cookies we use

All cookie and storage entries used on our website:

The strictly necessary entries set for visitors contain no personal data; they only keep your choice or the state needed for the website to work in your browser. Local and session storage are never sent to the server. Due to how cookies work, the cookie preference cookie is sent to the server with requests; our server does not use it.

4. Analytics measurement

Google Analytics is used for analytics measurement; it is loaded via Google Tag Manager. Microsoft Clarity is also used to see on-page interactions. None of these scripts is loaded on the page at all unless you allow analytics cookies. When you give permission, the scripts are loaded from Google’s and Microsoft’s servers, and the data collected is processed abroad by these companies; information about the transfer is in the Personal Data Protection Notice.

5. Connections that do not use cookies

Fonts and images are loaded from our own server; no requests are made to external sources such as Google Fonts. To update without reloading when content changes, pages open a live connection (WebSocket) to our server; this connection does not use cookies and does not save anything in your browser.

When you click our links to WhatsApp, social media and similar external sites, those sites’ own cookie policies apply.

6. Managing your preferences

You can change your preference at any time via the “Cookie preferences” link at the bottom of the page or the button below. When you withdraw your permission, Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity are told to stop measuring, and the scripts are not loaded on your next visits.

You can delete or block previously set cookies and site data in your browser settings. If you block strictly necessary entries, the cookie notice may reappear on every visit and some features may not work.

7. Changes

We update this page when the cookies we use change. If a change requires new consent, we show the cookie notice again.
