This page contains the privacy notice prepared under Article 10 of the Turkish Personal Data Protection Law No. 6698 ("KVKK") together with information about the cookies used on this website. The information below updates automatically according to the features that are ACTIVELY used on the site — for example, if Google Analytics is not active at the moment, this page states that it is not active.
Under KVKK, the data controller for personal data processed through this website (https://www.irfandemirel.com) is İrfan Demirel. For questions and requests you can reach us at [email protected].
When you fill in the form on the Contact page, your name, e-mail address and message are processed by us. This data is used only to reply to your request/message; it is not used for marketing and is not shared with third parties. The legal basis is Article 5/2 of KVKK — "processing is necessary to fulfil the data subject's request" — so separate explicit consent is not required, but you are asked to confirm that you have read and accepted this notice when sending the form.
This site uses Google Analytics to understand visit statistics (such as which pages are viewed how often, approximate location/device information). This service places cookies in your browser and transfers some data, including your IP address, to Google's (US-based) servers. Google Analytics cookies are loaded ONLY if you choose "Accept" in the cookie consent banner — if you reject or make no choice, these cookies never run.
Cloudflare Turnstile is used to protect the contact form against bots and automated submissions. This requires some technical data about your browser (such as your IP address) to be sent to Cloudflare when you submit the form. This processing is a necessary security measure for the form to work safely and does not require separate consent (KVKK Article 5/2 — necessary for the data controller's legal obligation / legitimate interest).
For a simple visit chart in the admin panel, ONLY the address of the viewed page and the time are recorded for each page view. No IP address, cookie or any other information that could identify you is KEPT — therefore these records are not personal data.
The data you share through the contact form is seen only by the data controller and is not shared with third parties. Within the scope of the Google Analytics and Cloudflare Turnstile services mentioned above, some technical data may be transferred to these providers' servers abroad; this transfer is technically necessary for the service to be provided.
Messages sent through the contact form are kept for the purpose of handling your request and keeping a record for a reasonable period. If you would like your data to be deleted, simply contact us using the details below.
