Acıbadem Sağlık Hizmetleri ve Ticaret A.Ş. (“Acıbadem”) and its subsidiaries and dominant companies (collectively, “Acıbadem Healthcare Group”) use technologies such as cookies to improve your experience on our online platforms. These technologies and the related personal data processing are carried out in accordance with the legislation we are subject to, primarily Law No. 6698 on the Protection of Personal Data.
This Cookie Policy explains which cookies we use, for what purposes, and how you can control them. We reserve the right to stop using certain cookies, change their types or functions, or add new ones — any change becomes effective when published here.
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small data file placed on your device by a web server through your browser. Websites use cookies to recognise your browser when a connection is established. They exist to make a site easier and faster to use.
Why we use cookies
We use cookies for four primary purposes:
- Essential functions — so the site works: keeping you signed in as you move between pages.
- Analytics and performance — measuring visits and tuning performance across servers.
- Functionality and ease of use — remembering preferences, usernames or previous searches.
- Personalisation and advertising — showing content and adverts relevant to your interests.
Legal basis for collection
Your personal data is obtained through cookies during your visit to our site. Under Article 5/2 of the Law, data may be processed without explicit consent where processing is necessary for our legitimate interests (provided your fundamental rights are not harmed), to fulfil a legal obligation, or where it is directly related to the establishment or performance of a contract. In all other cases, your data is processed only with your explicit consent.
Who your data may be shared with
Within the scope of this policy we may share personal data with third parties resident in Türkiye, our affiliates, business partners and group companies from which Acıbadem Healthcare Group receives services — limited to the purposes stated above and in compliance with the legislation.
Types of cookies we use
Cookies are grouped by how long they last and who sets them:
- Session cookies — deleted when you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies — remain on your device until they expire or you delete them.
- First-party cookies — set by our own site.
- Third-party cookies — set by services we work with, such as analytics providers.
How to control cookies
You can allow or block cookies, delete existing ones, or set your browser to warn you before a cookie is stored — all through your browser settings. Blocking essential cookies may prevent parts of the site from working as intended. Each browser handles this differently, so use the privacy or security section of your own browser’s settings.
