Cookie Policy
Updated date: August 13, 2026
Introduction
This Cookie Policy explains how cookies and similar technologies are used on the website at www.bimarka.com (the "Website") operated by Blesyum Yazılım ve Teknoloji Ltd. Şti. (the "Company", "we"), in line with Turkish Law No. 6698 on the Protection of Personal Data ("KVKK") and the Personal Data Protection Authority's guidance on cookie practices.
1. What Is a Cookie?
Cookies are small text files saved to your device through your browser when you visit a website. They allow your preferences to be remembered, your session to be maintained and statistics about site usage to be collected. Local storage and pixel-like technologies are treated within the same scope.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
Strictly necessary cookies
Required for the Website to function: they handle language routing, form submission and admin panel session security. No explicit consent is required for these under the legislation; if they are blocked, parts of the site will not work correctly.
Functional cookies and local storage
These remember your preferences. Your chosen appearance theme (light/dark) is stored in your browser's local storage rather than in a cookie, and is never sent to the server.
Analytics cookies
These help us understand which pages are visited and how often, so we can improve the experience. Measurement data is processed in aggregated (anonymised/pseudonymised) form wherever possible.
These tools run only when a measurement ID has been configured in the admin panel. If none is configured, no analytics script is loaded and no cookie of this type is created.
Third-party cookies
Third-party content embedded in the Website (such as video, maps or live support) may set its own cookies. Those cookies are subject to the relevant provider's privacy policy.
3. Cookies and Similar Technologies in Use
NEXT_LOCALE — Strictly necessary · Remembers your language preference and routes you to the correct language · Persistent (until deleted)
bimedya_admin — Strictly necessary · Created only when signing in to the admin panel; secures the session · For the duration of the session
bimedya-tema — Functional · Light/dark appearance preference; browser local storage, not a cookie · Until deleted
Measurement records — Analytics · Page view and usage statistics; only if measurement is configured in the panel · Up to 13 months
The cookies in use may change over time; this list is updated at reasonable intervals.
4. Legal Basis for Cookies
Strictly necessary cookies rely on the Company's legitimate interest and the necessity of processing in order to provide the service, under Article 5/2 of the KVKK. For non-essential cookies (analytics, marketing and personalisation), your explicit consent is the basis; you may withdraw it at any time.
5. How to Manage Cookies
You can delete or block cookies from your browser settings, or choose to be warned before a cookie is placed:
Because the theme preference is held in local storage, it is removed by your browser's "clear site data" option. If strictly necessary cookies are blocked, parts of the Website may not work correctly.
6. Your Rights and Contact
For personal data processed through cookies, you may exercise your rights under Article 11 of the KVKK using the procedure described in the Data Protection Notice. For questions, write to hello@bimarka.com.
