Some of these providers process data outside Türkiye, for example in the European Union or the United States. In those cases we rely on the transfer mechanisms of KVKK Art. 9 and the GDPR, such as standard contractual clauses, or on your explicit consent.

Where we rely on your consent you can withdraw it at any time. Withdrawal applies from that moment on.
