Privacy policy

Last updated: November 7, 2026

This page explains what information is collected when you visit alihasanavci.com, why it is collected and what rights you have over it. It also serves as the information notice under Turkey’s Personal Data Protection Law No. 6698 (KVKK).

Who is responsible

Ali Hasan Avcı, Mersin, Türkiye.

Contact: contact@alihasanavci.com

Contact form

When you fill in the contact form I receive your name, email address, the subject and your message. They are used only to reply to you and to discuss possible work together.

The message reaches my inbox through the email service Resend and is not stored on the site itself. Your details are never used for marketing, shared or sold.

Legal basis: it is needed to answer your request, and you share it of your own choice (KVKK art. 5/2-c and f).

Visit statistics

To understand how the site is used, I run a simple statistics system I built myself. Each page view records:

the page visited and the date,
where the visit came from (for example Google, Instagram, LinkedIn or a link),
location at country and city level,
device type (phone, tablet, computer), browser and operating system.

Your IP address is not stored: location is worked out at city level during the request and the IP address is then discarded. No identifier, cookie or persistent tracking ID is created. The data is only looked at as totals (for example “40 visitors today, 12 from Instagram”).

Legal basis: legitimate interest in improving the site (KVKK art. 5/2-f). Statistics are kept for at most 2 years.

Cookies and browser storage

The site does not use cookies, so it does not ask for cookie consent.

Your light or dark theme choice, and whether you have already seen the intro animation, are kept only in your own browser (localStorage and sessionStorage). They are never sent to me or anyone else, and you can clear them in your browser settings at any time.

Transfers

The site and the statistics database are hosted by cloud providers outside Türkiye, and contact form messages are delivered through Resend (USA). These transfers are needed to provide the service and are made under KVKK art. 9. Data is not shared with anyone else.

Links to other sites

The site links to other sites such as Behance and LinkedIn. Once you go there, their own privacy policies apply.

Your rights

Under article 11 of the KVKK you can ask whether data about you is processed, what it is and why, have incomplete or wrong data corrected, have it deleted, and object to its processing.

Send any such request to contact@alihasanavci.com. I reply within 30 days.

Changes

If the site starts collecting anything new, this page is updated. The current date is shown at the top.
