Cookie Policy

We explain how we use cookies on our website

Last updated: July 17, 2026

1. Introduction

Serving guests along Ankara's Kızılay–Çankaya corridor, Aren Spa Ankara Masaj Salonu ("Aren Spa Massage", "we") sets out in this Cookie Policy how cookies and similar technologies are used on our website at https://arenspamasaj.com (the "Site").

Aren Spa Ankara Masaj Salonu is the data controller under Law No. 6698 ("KVKK"); this policy meets the Article 10 disclosure duty for cookies and follows the Guideline on Cookie Practices (2022) of the Turkish Personal Data Protection Board.

Because Çankaya is home to numerous embassies and international institutions, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the ePrivacy Directive are additionally observed for users visiting from the European Union or the United Kingdom; the policy covers domestic and international visitors together.

2. What Is a Cookie?

A cookie is a small file your browser places on your device (computer, tablet, phone) when you visit a website; cookies keep the site running, remember your preferences, and help measure how the site is used.

This policy reaches beyond classic cookies to comparable tools such as local/session storage, pixel tags, web beacons and SDKs; unless noted otherwise, "cookie" in this document stands for all of them together.

3. Categories of Cookies by Purpose of Use

The cookies used on the Site are divided into four categories according to their purpose of use. All cookies other than strictly necessary ones are switched off by default and are only activated with your explicit consent (opt-in).

3.1. Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are technically required for the Site's core functions to work, for security to be maintained, and for the services you request to be delivered. These cookies cannot be disabled; if turned off, some parts of the Site may not function.

Legal basis: These cookies are processed without the need for explicit consent, pursuant to Article 5(2)(c) of the KVKK ("being directly related to the establishment or performance of a contract") and Article 5(2)(f) ("the legitimate interest of the data controller").

3.2. Functional Cookies

These cookies remember your language preference, region selection, and similar personalization settings to provide you with a more advanced and tailored experience.

Legal basis: Based on your explicit consent pursuant to Article 5(1) of the KVKK. Switched off by default.

3.3. Analytics (Performance) Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors use the Site — which pages are viewed, how long visits last, and any errors that occur — mostly generating anonymous or aggregated statistics.

Legal basis: Based on your explicit consent pursuant to Article 5(1) of the KVKK. Switched off by default.

3.4. Marketing (Targeting/Advertising) Cookies

These are cookies, generally used by third-party advertising providers, to display content and ads suited to your interests, measure campaign effectiveness, and manage ad frequency.

Legal basis: Based on your explicit consent pursuant to Article 5(1) of the KVKK. Switched off by default.

4. Cookies by Duration and Party

By term: Session cookies clear themselves when you close the browser; persistent cookies stay until a set date or until you delete them.

By source: First-party cookies are set directly by Aren Spa Massage; third-party cookies come from the analytics or advertising partners supporting the Site.

5. Cookie Inventory

The table below is kept current with the cookies actually active on the Site, listing their name, purpose, source and retention period.

6. Third-Party Services

Certain features of the Site rely on cookies from the third-party providers below; each provider's own privacy policy governs how it processes data.

  • Google Analytics 4: Measures visit statistics in aggregated form to help us understand site traffic and user behavior. More information: https://policies.google.com/privacy
  • Google Ads: Used to measure the effectiveness of ad campaigns and to enable remarketing. More information: https://policies.google.com/privacy
  • Google Tag Manager: Enables centralized management of tags (measurement and marketing codes) on the Site; it does not collect personal data on its own, but the tags it manages may use cookies. More information: https://policies.google.com/privacy
  • Meta (Facebook) Pixel: Used to measure the performance of ads run on Facebook and Instagram and to build target audiences. More information: https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy

7. Google Consent Mode v2

The Site runs on Google Consent Mode v2: without your consent to analytics or marketing cookies, Google's tools write no advertising or measurement cookie at all. Once your preference is saved, a matching signal reaches the relevant Google service, and cookies then operate strictly within that permission.

8. Managing Your Consent

The cookie notice bar that opens on your first visit lets you accept everything, reject everything, or pick category by category through "Cookie Settings"; every category but strictly necessary starts turned off.

Changed your mind? The floating cookie icon in the bottom-left corner of the page reopens the preference panel any time you want to update your choices.

9. Managing Cookies via Your Browser

Your browser's settings menu offers another route to view, delete or block cookies; help pages for widely used browsers are gathered below:

Blocking cookies entirely at the browser level can also catch strictly necessary cookies, leaving some parts of the Site working imperfectly.

10. Processing of Personal Data and Your Rights

Article 11 of the KVKK grants you the following rights over personal data that cookies process:

  • To learn whether your personal data is being processed,
  • To request information if your personal data has been processed,
  • To learn the purpose of processing your personal data and whether it is used in accordance with that purpose,
  • To know the third parties to whom your personal data is transferred, whether domestic or abroad,
  • To request correction of your personal data if it has been processed incompletely or incorrectly,
  • To request the erasure or destruction of your personal data under the conditions set out in Article 7 of the KVKK,
  • To request that any correction, erasure, or destruction be notified to third parties to whom your data has been transferred,
  • To object to a result that is to your detriment arising from the analysis of processed data exclusively through automated systems,
  • To request compensation for damages arising from unlawful processing of your personal data.

How to apply: Send requests about these rights in writing, per the Communiqué on the Procedures and Principles of Application to the Data Controller and Article 13 of the KVKK, to Grand Silay Hotel, Kültür, Meşrutiyet Cd. No:40 D:1, 06200 Çankaya/Ankara or to [email protected]. Aren Spa Ankara Masaj Salonu closes out requests free of charge, as promptly as the matter allows and within thirty days at the outside; where handling genuinely costs extra, the Board's published tariff may apply.

Should we reject your request, answer it inadequately, or miss the statutory deadline, you may file a complaint with the Personal Data Protection Board.

For guests covered by the GDPR: Business or diplomatic visitors reaching us from the European Union or the United Kingdom may also lodge a complaint with the competent data protection supervisory authority back home under the GDPR.

11. Changes

Aren Spa Ankara Masaj Salonu revises this Cookie Policy whenever regulations evolve or Site practices change; the current version always lives on this page, and the date above advances with any material revision. Continued use of the Site means you have read that current version.
