2) What Is a Cookie?
Cookies are small text files stored in your browser or device by the websites you visit. Cookies may be used for purposes such as ensuring the operation of the website, maintaining security, measuring performance, remembering visitor preferences, and, where explicit consent is given, marketing activities.

3) What Types of Cookies Do We Use?
We classify cookies according to criteria such as their purpose of use and duration:

• First-Party Cookies: Cookies placed directly by us
• Third-Party Cookies: Cookies placed by our business partners/technology providers from whom we receive services
• Session Cookies: Deleted when the browser is closed
• Persistent Cookies: Remain on the device for a certain period of time

4) Cookie Categories and Their Purposes (Strictly Necessary / Analytics-Performance / Marketing)
The categories below are managed separately via the cookie preference panel.

A) Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are required for the proper functioning of the website and for the provision of the information society services you request. Therefore, they are active by default, and if they are disabled, certain parts of the website may not function properly.

It is also stated in the summaries of Board decisions that, as a rule, explicit consent may not be required for “strictly necessary cookies”; however, for non-essential cookies, the “opt-in” explicit consent approach is the main principle.

Examples of purposes: security, session management, form security, storing cookie preference records.

B) Analytics / Performance Cookies
These cookies help us improve the performance of the website through metrics such as the number of visitors, pages visited, and error/performance measurements.

The summaries of Board decisions indicate that performance-analytics cookies, when evaluated as a non-essential category, should be subject to the data subject’s explicit consent based on their active will (opt-in).

Examples of purposes: page view statistics, aggregated analysis of user behavior, measuring website speed/errors.

C) Marketing / Advertising Cookies
These cookies may be used to display content/offers tailored to your interests, measure the effectiveness of advertisements, and carry out remarketing activities.

The summaries of Board decisions clearly state that the use of advertising/marketing cookies, as a non-essential category, requires explicit consent.

Examples of purposes: campaign performance measurement, personalized advertising, social media integrations.

Note: Whether a cookie is “necessary” and which legal basis it may rely on must be assessed according to the specific cookie and the relevant usage scenario. The guidance of the Turkish Data Protection Authority provides control steps and good practice examples for this assessment.

5) What Data May Be Processed Through Cookies?
Depending on the cookies used, data such as IP address, device/browser information, duration of visit, page interactions, and cookie identifiers may be processed as part of security and usage data.

Through the cookie banner displayed upon your first visit to our website, you may choose:

The guidance of the Turkish Data Protection Authority presents, as good practice, mechanisms that provide users with control over non-essential cookies, the storage of consent records, and regular reviews.

B) Browser Settings
You may delete or block cookies through your browser settings. However, blocking necessary cookies may affect certain functions of the website.

7) Third-Party Service Providers and International Data Transfers
Analytics/performance or marketing cookies may belong to third-party providers. If the provider is located abroad, data processed through cookies may involve international data transfers. The summaries of Board decisions show that issues such as allegations of international data transfers within the scope of cookies and the clarity of disclosures are subject to regulatory review.
