No ad networks, no analytics trackers, no fingerprinting. The site uses only 3 necessary cookies for sessions, form security and your cookie choice; on the payment pages of the client portal, our payment provider Stripe adds its fraud-prevention cookies.
A cookie is a small text file a site leaves in your browser. On your next request the site recognises you; for example it remembers that you signed in to the portal, or checks that a form was really sent by you.
Our cookies contain only a random ID or security token — never your password, card number or name. We keep cookies to a minimum and classify them under Turkish Law No. 6698 (KVKK) and the KVKK Authority's cookie guidelines.
Only necessary cookies are in use today. The other three categories are empty; if we ever add something, we will update this page and ask for your consent first.
Needed for the site and the client portal to work: sessions, form security, your cookie choice and payment security. Without them you cannot sign in or send forms, so they do not depend on consent and cannot be switched off.

We do not need any today: your language is kept in the address (/tr, /en) and the theme is always dark.
We use no analytics tool today. If Google Analytics 4 (through Google Tag Manager) is ever turned on, it runs with Google Consent Mode v2 set to "denied" by default, and analytics cookies are written only with your consent.
_ga, _ga_* — only if turned on and with your consentCookies used by ad networks, retargeting or personalised advertising. We use no ad networks — this category is empty.
Optional categories are off by default. Your choice is kept in your browser for 6 months and applies if a cookie is ever added to these categories.

Browser storage and third parties: your cookie choice is also kept in your browser's local storage (sm_consent, sm_cookie_consent). Cloudflare Turnstile, used on form and sign-in pages, runs in a verification frame loaded from Cloudflare's own domain. Fonts (Google Fonts) and library files (jsDelivr) are fetched from those providers' servers when the page loads; your IP address reaches them in the process, but they do not set cookies on our domain. Our site has no ad or analytics trackers such as Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, TikTok Pixel or Hotjar.
You can manage cookies for the whole web, not just our site, in your browser settings. If you block necessary cookies, you may not be able to sign in to the portal or send forms.
