Who We Share Your Data With
We do not sell your personal data or share it with third parties for marketing purposes. Your data may be transferred only for the purposes described above and in accordance with Articles 8 and 9 of the KVKK, to the following recipients:
- The providers of our website hosting and e-mail services, acting as data processors and only to the extent necessary to provide those services.
- Competent public authorities and judicial and administrative bodies, where required by law.
- Google LLC, if you choose to load the map: your browser then connects directly to Google's servers, and the data Google obtains is subject to Google's own privacy policy.

Transfers Abroad
The Google Maps content on our contact page is loaded only if you click “Load map” or accept optional cookies.

Such transfers take place within the framework of Article 9 of the KVKK, as amended in 2024. They rely on the appropriate safeguards provided for in the law where these are in place and, where they are not, on the explicit consent you give by choosing to load the map or accept optional cookies, after being informed of the possible risks (Art. 9(6)(a)). These risks include the possibility that the destination country does not offer the same level of protection as Türkiye and that foreign authorities may be able to access the data. Not loading the map does not affect any other function of our website.
Should the servers of our hosting or e-mail service providers be located abroad, any such transfer is likewise carried out only in accordance with Article 9 of the KVKK.
