What data the Site processes
The Site is an information website. It has no booking, payment or account forms.
- Analytics cookies: only if you consent, Google Analytics 4 collects data such as pages viewed, device and browser type, approximate location (country/city level) and how you navigate the Site.
- Technical logs: to keep the Site secure and available, our hosting infrastructure may briefly log technical data such as IP address and request time.
- Contact data: if you reach us through the phone, WhatsApp or email links on the Site, the name, phone number, email address and message you share are used to answer your enquiry. WhatsApp's own policies also apply to messages sent through it.
Purposes and legal bases
- Analytics cookies are used to understand how the Site is used and improve its content, based on your explicit consent (KVKK Art. 5(1); GDPR Art. 6(1)(a)).
- Technical logs are processed to keep the Site secure, based on our legitimate interests (KVKK Art. 5(2)(f); GDPR Art. 6(1)(f)).
- Contact data is processed to respond to you and take steps towards a possible rental contract (KVKK Art. 5(2)(c); GDPR Art. 6(1)(b)) and on the basis of legitimate interests.
Bookings
Bookings and payments are not made on this Site but on betacarrental.com. Data you provide there is processed under that site's own privacy policy.
Data transfers
To provide analytics, data is shared with our service provider Google and may be processed on servers outside Turkey. Such transfers are carried out in line with Article 9 of the KVKK and other applicable rules. Otherwise, your data is only disclosed to public authorities where required by law.
Cookies and withdrawing consent
Necessary cookies keep the Site working and remember your choice; analytics cookies are only set once you accept them. You can withdraw consent at any time using the Site's cookie preferences tool, or delete and block cookies in your browser settings. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing carried out before withdrawal.
Retention
Personal data is kept only as long as needed for the purpose it was collected for and any period required by law, after which it is deleted, destroyed or anonymised.
Your rights
Under Article 11 of the KVKK you may ask whether and why your data is processed and who it has been transferred to (in Turkey or abroad), and request its correction or deletion, including notification of recipients. You may also object to an adverse outcome resulting solely from automated analysis and claim compensation for damage caused by unlawful processing. Visitors covered by the GDPR also have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability and objection.
Send requests to [email protected] or in writing to our head office. Under Article 13 of the KVKK, requests are answered within 30 days at the latest. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may complain to the Turkish Personal Data Protection Board, or to your local supervisory authority if the GDPR applies.
