These features use automated processes to tailor your experiences based on the data we have about you, such as deductions we make about you and your use of the product, your activities, interests, and location.

7.    Processing Methods Used

THE ORGANIZATION places the highest importance on the security of your personal information and is committed to processing it in accordance with industry standards and norms, only for the purposes for which it is collected as described in this policy or in a specific notice for that purpose. Nevertheless, the absolute safeguarding of this information is impossible due to the inherent security limitations of transmission over the Internet. Therefore, the information you transmit to us is ultimately at your own risk.

8.    Access and Control of Personal Information

THE ORGANIZATION ensures that all personal information in its possession is as accurate, current, and complete as necessary for the purposes for which it is used.

Starting from the date required by law, you have the right to request access to your personal information for verification and request correction if it is inaccurate. If you believe your personal information is inaccurate or if you wish to access your personal information, you can make a request to use the contact information provided at the end of this policy.

To the best of our ability, we will provide you with timely access to your personal information. However, for security reasons, we may need to verify your identity.

Additionally, there may be circumstances where we cannot provide you with access to your personal information. This includes situations where access could lead to the disclosure of another person’s personal information and that person refuses to consent to the disclosure, or where legal restrictions apply. If such a situation arises, we will inform you of the reason why we cannot provide you with access to your personal information.

If your request concerns data appearing on third-party websites or platforms, please contact these third parties directly.

9.    Sharing and Reasons for Sharing Personal Information with Third Parties

THE ORGANIZATION is committed not to sell or rent your personal information to a third party.

11.  Retention of Personal Information

THE ORGANIZATION retains collected data for various periods depending on their nature and utility in providing our products and services. During the retention period, THE ORGANIZATION takes physical and technical measures to ensure the security of data containing personal information.

The main locations where personal information is retained are in cities where THE ORGANIZATION has offices or facilities and in cities where the web host has servers containing data collected by THE ORGANIZATION.

Personal information may be stored outside the country in which you reside if a third-party provider or another entity to whom we disclose personal information in accordance with this Policy is located outside the country. In such cases, personal information may be subject to the local laws of the countries or territories in which the information is collected, used, disclosed, or stored, and government authorities and law enforcement authorities in those countries or territories may have access to it.

Once the retention period has expired, personal information is destroyed. Only statistics or reports containing de-identified and anonymized data may be retained for extended periods.
