1. What Cookies and Local Storage Are
Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser. This site also uses a similar browser mechanism called localStorage. The table below lists every entry the site stores on the client side, regardless of the technical storage method (cookie or localStorage).
2. Cookie and Storage Table
| Name | Purpose | Lifetime | Type | Provider |
|---|---|---|---|---|
gms-home-cookie-consent-v1 | Remembers your cookie category choice (essential/analytics/marketing) | Persistent, until you or your browser clear it | Essential · localStorage · first-party | GMS Home (the server hosting the site) |
gms-home-locale-v1 | Remembers your chosen site language (TR/RU/EN) | Persistent, until you or your browser clear it | Essential · localStorage · first-party | GMS Home (the server hosting the site) |
The site currently has no analytics or marketing tool connected (no Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, Yandex Metrica or similar). The "Analytics" and "Marketing" toggles in the cookie settings are provided in advance for when such a tool is added — once a specific tool is connected, this table will be updated with the corresponding row.
3. Categories
- Essential (zorunlu): necessary for the site, the forms and storing your preferences to function. Cannot be disabled.
- Analytics (analitik): used to collect visit statistics. Enabled only with your explicit consent. Not currently in use.
- Marketing (pazarlama): used for ad personalisation and retargeting. Enabled only with your explicit consent. Not currently in use.
4. Data Processed Abroad — a Separate Legal Basis (KVKK Art. 9)
Independently of cookies and localStorage: enquiries submitted through the site's forms are forwarded via the Telegram Messenger infrastructure, and technical access logs may be processed depending on the location of the hosting provider's servers. These providers' servers may be located outside Turkey. This requires a separate legal basis and separate consent, unrelated to cookie consent — see the Aydınlatma Metni and the Açık Rıza Metni for details. If an analytics or marketing tool that processes data abroad is added in the future, this section and the table above will be updated.
5. Managing Your Choice
You can change your choice at any time, as easily as you gave it: click "Cookie Settings" at the bottom of the page, update the categories and save. Clearing the site's data in your browser also resets your choice — the banner will appear again on your next visit. This site never uses wording such as "by continuing to browse, you agree to cookies" — consent is recorded only when you actively click one of the choice buttons.
Effective date: 30 August 2026.
