4.3. Analytics (visit statistics)
The infrastructure on which the Website is hosted produces aggregate statistics such as the number of page views, pages visited, referring sites and device/browser type, using a first-party visit measurement tool that runs through the Website. These statistics are viewed only as aggregate reports, not aimed at identifying individuals, solely to assess the operation of the Website and the readership of its content; they are not used for advertising, profiling or retargeting and are not shared with third parties. Technical data such as IP addresses may be processed by the infrastructure provider during this measurement.
4.4. Third-party content: Map
The Google Maps content on the contact page is not loaded unless you click the "Show map" button. Until you click, no connection is made to Google and no cookies are set by Google. If you choose to load the map, Google LLC may set cookies on your device and process data such as your IP address under its own privacy policy. For details, please see the Google Privacy Policy (policies.google.com/privacy).
4.5. Technologies we do not use
- No advertising, marketing or retargeting cookies.
- No social media tracking pixels (e.g. Meta Pixel).
- No Google Analytics, Google Ads or similar third-party advertising/measurement services.
- Fonts are served from the Website's own server; no connection is made to third-party servers (e.g. Google Fonts) for fonts.
5. Legal Basis
The limited processing carried out through strictly necessary and functional cookies is based on Article 5(2)(f) KVKK — the Office's legitimate interest in providing the Website in a secure and functioning manner, provided that this does not harm the fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject — and on such processing being necessary to provide the service you request (displaying the Website). Map content is loaded only on your explicit choice (by clicking).
The aggregate visit statistics provided by the hosting infrastructure are likewise processed under the same provision, based on the Office's legitimate interest in assessing the operation of the Website and the readership of its content. These statistics are assessed only as aggregate reports not aimed at identifying individuals and are not used for advertising, profiling or marketing.
