Privacy Policy
Important note
In short
- This is a static patient-information website. There are no user accounts and no server-side database.
- What you type into the appointment form is not stored on the site; the form opens WhatsApp or your e-mail app with a prefilled message to the clinic you chose. You send the message yourself.
- No advertising or marketing cookies. Fonts are served from the site itself; no requests are made to Google Fonts.
- Google Maps loads only when you choose to load it.
- Cookieless, privacy-friendly visit statistics (Plausible) run only if enabled and only with your consent.
Who is responsible?
The data controller responsible for processing related to this website is: [VERİ SORUMLUSU — TEYİT GEREKLİ: Ad/Unvan, adres, e-posta, KEP].
Appointment requests are processed by the clinic you send them to (Nifa Dent International Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Polikliniği (Bornova) ve Özel İzmir Dent Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Polikliniği (Karabağlar)) as an independent data controller. For details, see the Data Protection Notice (KVKK).
How does the appointment form work?
The form asks for your name, phone number, preferred language, preferred clinic, topic and message, plus a mandatory explicit-consent checkbox. When you press Send, nothing is saved to any server; your browser opens a message prepared from these details in WhatsApp (wa.me) or your e-mail app. The message only reaches the clinic once you send it from your own account.
If you use WhatsApp or e-mail, your message passes through that provider's infrastructure (e.g. WhatsApp/Meta or your e-mail provider) and their own privacy terms apply. If you would rather not, you can phone the clinic directly; numbers are on the Contact page.
Third-party services
- Hosting: The site is hosted by [BARINDIRMA SAĞLAYICISI — TEYİT GEREKLİ]. The provider may keep server access logs (IP address, date and time, requested page, browser details) for technical security [SCOPE AND PERIOD — TEYİT GEREKLİ].
- Google Maps: Clinic maps are not shown until you choose to load them. Once loaded, your IP address and browser details are sent to Google, Google may set cookies, and data may be transferred outside Türkiye. Google's privacy policy: policies.google.com/privacy.
- Plausible Analytics (optional): If enabled and you consent, aggregated visit statistics (e.g. page views, referring site, country) are produced without cookies. Plausible Insights OÜ is based in the EU. Details: plausible.io/data-policy.
- External links: When you follow links to other sites, such as clinic websites or social media, their own privacy policies apply.
For the list of cookies and local storage, see the Cookie Policy.
Transfers outside Türkiye
Servers of Google, WhatsApp (Meta), Plausible and the hosting provider may be located outside Türkiye. Such transfers are carried out under Article 9 of the KVKK as amended by Law No. 7499; the basis for each transfer must be determined by a lawyer [TEYİT GEREKLİ]. See the Data Protection Notice (KVKK) for details.
Security
The site is served over an encrypted connection (HTTPS) [TEYİT GEREKLİ]. Because no form data is kept on the server, there are no appointment records stored on the site. No transmission over the internet is entirely risk-free, so we recommend not sharing sensitive information in the form.
Children
The appointment form is intended for adults. For anyone under 18, please ask a parent or legal guardian to send the request.
Your rights
Your rights under Article 11 of the KVKK and how to exercise them are explained in the Data Protection Notice (KVKK). For requests about an appointment message you sent to a clinic, please contact that clinic directly.
Visitors in the European Union: to the extent the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) applies, you have the right of access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and objection, and the right to withdraw consent at any time. You may also lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority in your country of residence [GDPR APPLICABILITY — TEYİT GEREKLİ].
