A.Ş., we respect the privacy and data protection rights of visitors to our website racksis.com (the "Website") and process personal data and use cookies to provide a better user experience. This Cookie Policy (the "Policy") explains to all Website visitors and users which types of cookies are used and under which conditions. Detailed information on the processing of your personal data is available in our Privacy Notice.

This Policy applies regardless of the technologies, methods and means you use to access the Website.

Minors

If you are under 18, you must visit the Website accompanied by your parents. Without their supervision, you should not use the Website or share any personal data.

What are cookies and why are they used?

Cookies are small data files stored by websites on the computer, mobile phone, tablet or other mobile device you use. They store information about your browsing on the Website so that your devices remember this data when you use the Website again. Cookies are therefore necessary and important for using the Website effectively and easily. Cookies are also used to offer you more suitable services, products or offers on the Website and on third-party websites.

The main purposes of using cookies are:

  • Technical data needed to use the Website more effectively,
  • Collecting information on your browsing and usage preferences and habits on the Website,
  • Personal data such as your IP address needed for the Company to fulfil its legal and contractual obligations, in particular under Law No. 5651 on the Regulation of Publications on the Internet and Combating Crimes Committed through Such Publications and the related Regulation.

What data do we process through cookies?

Depending on their type, cookies generally collect data on your browsing and usage preferences on the device you use to access the Website, including the pages you visit, the products and services you view and your navigation on the Website.

We use different types of cookies on the Website: strictly necessary cookies, functional cookies, analytics/performance cookies and targeting/advertising cookies.

Cookie types by purpose

  • Strictly necessary cookies: Essential for the Website to work properly; needed to manage the system and prevent fraudulent activity. If blocked, the Website cannot work.
  • Functional cookies: Provide a more advanced and convenient experience, for example by remembering your previous choices and giving easy access to certain content. You can block them as described below.
  • Analytics/performance cookies: Help us analyse and understand how the Website works and improve it. You can block them as described below.
  • Targeting/advertising cookies: Used to identify and show you content, including advertising, that may interest you. Blocking them does not remove ads entirely; you will see general ads instead of ones tailored to your interests.

Cookie types by duration

  • Persistent cookies: Remain on your device until a set date or until you delete them; mostly used to measure site activity and preferences.
  • Session cookies: Used to divide a visit into sessions and do not collect data from the user. They are deleted when you close the page or after a period of inactivity.

Targeting and tracking cookies are used on the Website to help third parties, in particular advertising services, provide their services and to increase their effectiveness. These cookies may remember the pages and sites you visit and may collect personal data, in particular the IP address of your device. The Website uses both first-party and third-party cookies to collect information, remember your interests and demographic data, show and improve targeted ads, and measure visits, ad impressions, other uses of ad services and related interactions.

The Website uses social plug-ins linking to social networks such as Instagram, Facebook and the Kocaeli Kaya Group YouTube channel. When you visit the Website and use these plug-ins, the Website connects directly to the selected social network's server, and the content of the plug-in is sent from the social network to your browser and added to the page you are visiting.
