Purposes of Processing
Your personal data is processed only for the following purposes, and in a limited and proportionate way in connection with them:
- Receiving, assessing and answering the information, quote, dealership and after-sales requests you send through the contact form or by email,

- Keeping the website and its forms secure, and preventing spam, automated (bot) requests and abuse,
- Keeping the website technically operational and available,
- Meeting our legal obligations, responding to requests from competent authorities and protecting our rights and interests in any dispute.
Legal Bases
Your data is processed on the following legal grounds listed in Article 5 of KVKK:
| Processing activity | Legal basis |

You can withdraw the consent you gave for the newsletter at any time. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before it.
Who We Share Data With
We do not sell your personal data or share it with third parties for marketing. To provide the service we share data only with the following service providers, and only for the stated purpose:
| Service provider | Service | Data shared |
|---|---|---|
| Vercel | Website hosting and server infrastructure | Technical logs; data you submit through forms (in transit) |

Where the law requires, information may be shared with competent public authorities and courts on their request, to the extent permitted by the relevant legislation.
Transfers abroad: The servers of the service providers above may be located outside Türkiye (for example in the European Union or the United States), so your data may be transferred abroad. Such transfers rely on one of the mechanisms provided in Article 9 of KVKK (an adequacy decision, appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses, or the exceptional cases listed in the law).
Retention Periods
Your personal data is kept for as long as the purpose of processing requires, and within the retention and limitation periods set by the relevant legislation:
| Data | Retention period |
|---|---|
| Contact requests | Until your request is resolved; afterwards, limited to the statutory limitation periods in case of disputes |
| Newsletter email address | Until you unsubscribe or ask for it to be deleted |
| Rate-limiting records (IP) | Short periods from a few minutes up to one hour; deleted automatically afterwards |
| Technical logs of hosting and security providers | As stated in those providers’ own policies |
When the period ends, your data is deleted, destroyed or anonymised.
Data Security
We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to prevent unlawful processing of, access to and loss of your personal data:
- All communication with our website is encrypted with HTTPS/TLS.
- Forms are protected against abuse with bot verification, rate limiting and origin checks.
- A strict content security policy (CSP) is enforced; only necessary third-party resources (bot verification, map) are allowed.
- Access to data is limited to authorised people who need it for their duties.
No method of transmission over the internet is completely risk-free. For that reason we recommend not sending sensitive data such as identity, financial or health information through the contact form.
