1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our website. They help us improve your experience and analyze site traffic. We also use localStorage for theme and consent preferences — these are not cookies but similar browser storage.

2. How We Use Cookies

Essential Cookies: Required for login (session management) and security (CSRF protection). The site cannot function without these.
Functional Cookies: Store your language preference and theme selection. We use browser localStorage for these preferences, not cookies.
Security Cookies (Cloudflare Turnstile): Cloudflare Turnstile may set technical cookies to distinguish human visitors from bots. These are strictly necessary for spam protection.

3. Cookie Details

Below is a list of the cookies and browser storage we use:

Name	Purpose	Duration	Type
`PHPSESSID`	Session management (login, user state)	Session (until browser closes)	Essential
`csrf_token`	CSRF protection (security)	Session	Essential
`cf_clearance`	Bot detection (Cloudflare Turnstile)	Up to 1 year	Essential
`b2b-theme`	Theme preference (light/dark) — stored in localStorage, not a cookie	Persistent	Functional
`cookieConsent`	Cookie consent record — stored in localStorage, not a cookie	6 months	Functional

We do not use any tracking, advertising, or analytics cookies.

4. Third-Party Cookies

We do not sell or share your data with third parties. The only third-party service that may set cookies is Cloudflare Turnstile (for bot protection). Embedded content (such as social media links) may set their own cookies, but we have no control over them.

5. Managing & Withdrawing Consent

You can withdraw your cookie consent at any time by:

Clearing your browser cookies and localStorage (browser settings)
Using your browser's private/incognito mode
Disabling cookies entirely in your browser settings (note: login may not work)

If you decline cookies via our cookie banner, we will not set any non-essential cookies. However, essential cookies (PHPSESSID, CSRF, Cloudflare) are always active because the site cannot function without them.

6. Legal Basis (GDPR & Turkish Law)

We obtain your consent via the cookie banner before setting non-essential cookies. Essential cookies are necessary for site functionality (GDPR Art. 6(1)(f), Turkish Law No. 6698).
