This policy explains how cookies and similar technologies are used on genelmotor.com. It has been prepared taking into account the Guidelines on Cookie Practices published by the Turkish Personal Data Protection Authority.

This is an English translation provided for convenience. In case of any discrepancy, the Turkish version prevails.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website you visit saves in your browser. Similar technologies such as browser local storage, pixels and device signals can be used for the same purposes; in this policy, “cookies” refers to all of them.

Cookies are generally grouped into four types by purpose:

Strictly necessary cookies: needed for the website to work or to securely provide a service you explicitly request (e.g. submitting a form). No consent is required for these.
Functional cookies: remember your preferences.
Analytics cookies: measure visitor statistics.
Advertising and marketing cookies: used to show ads based on your interests.

Cookies that are not strictly necessary may only be used with your explicit consent.

Which cookies does our website use?

Our website does not set any cookies of its own. There are no analytics, visitor tracking, advertising or marketing cookies. Navigation, language selection and all other features work without cookies. That is why there is no cookie consent banner on our website.

The following third-party services come into play only in the situations described:

Cloudflare Turnstile (form security)

Provider: Cloudflare, Inc. (USA)
When: On pages with the quote and contact forms, when the form security check is enabled.
Purpose: To protect the forms against spam and automated bot submissions. To tell that you are human, the check collects some technical signals from your browser (e.g. browser characteristics, IP address). Cloudflare states that it does not use these signals for advertising and that Turnstile does not use cookies to track users.
Type: Strictly necessary (security). Required to submit the form; no consent is requested.
More information: Cloudflare Turnstile Privacy Addendum

Google Maps (contact page)

Provider: Google LLC (USA)
When: Only when you press the “Show map” button on the Contact page. If you do not press it, neither the map nor Google’s cookies are loaded.
Purpose: To show our location on a map. Once the map loads, Google may set cookies and process some data for its own purposes, for which Google is responsible under its own privacy policy.
Type: Third-party, optional. Loading the map is entirely your choice.
More information: Google Privacy Policy · How Google uses cookies

Without loading the map, you can also open our address in Google Maps in a new tab or use the address on the Contact page.

How can you manage cookies?

You can view, delete or block cookies in your browser settings. If you block strictly necessary cookies, our forms may not work.

Your personal data

Your rights regarding personal data processed through cookies and similar technologies, and how to apply, are explained in our Privacy Notice (KVKK); our general practices are described in our Privacy Policy.

Changes

If we ever decide to add analytics or other non-essential cookies to our website, we will update this policy and ask for your explicit consent on the website before using them. Declining will not prevent you from using the website.
