1. Who and what this policy covers
This Privacy Policy covers the websites listed above operated by Tuna Project Global Ticaret Anonim Şirketi ("Tuna Project", "we"), the contact and demo-request forms on them, lead processes, and the technical operation of the site. Data processed under a pilot/customer contract is governed by separate agreements; this policy does not replace them. Controller: Tuna Project Global Ticaret A.Ş. (see COMPANY_FACT_SHEET.md). Tuna Project LLC (US) is not a controller in this context (DEC-002).

Web forms are not designed to collect clinical or special-category data; please do not enter excessive or sensitive information in free-text fields.

4. Cookies
The site uses strictly necessary cookies and — subject to your consent — analytics cookies (Google Analytics 4). See the Cookie Policy for the cookie list and preference management. Non-essential cookies run only if you consent via the cookie banner; you can withdraw consent at any time.
5. Sharing and recipients
We do not sell your data. We share it only as necessary with: hosting/infrastructure/e-mail providers ([PROVIDER(S) — PENDING]); Google (Google Analytics 4) — only with analytics-cookie consent; an internal tracking/CRM tool ([TOOL — PENDING]); legal, accounting and audit advisers as needed; and competent public authorities upon a lawful request. We aim to put a data processing agreement (DPA) in place with each provider.
6. International transfers
Some providers (particularly analytics and cloud infrastructure) may process data outside Türkiye and/or the EEA. KVKK: transfers are made in accordance with Art. 9 (explicit consent or prescribed safeguards). GDPR: transfers outside the EEA rely on Chapter V mechanisms (e.g. the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses, or an adequacy decision). The definitive transfer inventory and mechanism will be completed during legal review.
7. Retention
Your data is retained for as long as necessary for the processing purpose and the applicable limitation periods, then deleted, destroyed or anonymised. Draft per-category periods are in KVKK Notice §6; the definitive schedule will be set during legal review.
8. Your rights

Your GDPR rights (to the extent applicable): access (Art. 15), rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), restriction (Art. 18), portability (Art. 20), objection (Art. 21 — including to processing based on legitimate interests and to direct marketing), and withdrawal of consent for consent-based processing (Art. 7(3)). No automated individual decision-making / profiling (Art. 22) takes place. Requests: office@tunaproject.com.
9. Lodging a complaint
