This policy explains how cookies and similar technologies are used at drserdarbaser.com.
1. What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file saved to your browser when you visit a site. It is used to make the site work properly, to remember your preferences, or to produce visit statistics.
Similar technologies include localStorage, sessionStorage and pixel tags.
2. Which cookies does this site use?
drserdarbaser.com is a static site. As it has no membership, payment or session management, the number of cookies it sets on its own account is kept to a minimum. The contact form does not use cookies either; its security relies on a short-lived verification token embedded in the page. The site does not currently use any analytics or advertising tools.
| Category | In use | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary cookies | Yes, where required | For the security and basic operation of the site. Without them the site may not work properly; they do not require consent. |
| Preference cookies | No | Language choice is handled through separate URLs (for example / for English, /tr/, /de/), not cookies. |
| Analytics cookies | Not currently used | If a measurement tool is added in future, this page will be updated. |
| Advertising / measurement cookies | Not currently used | No advertising pixel is loaded. If one is added, it will load only with your consent and this page will be updated first. |
3. Embedded third-party content
This site includes third-party content that loads only when you choose to activate it. Such content can set its own cookies, and those cookies are not under our control.
| Content | When it comes into play | What it may set |
|---|---|---|
| YouTube videos (where shown) | No request is sent to YouTube when the page loads. A video is loaded from the youtube-nocookie.com domain only when you press play. | Google/YouTube cookies and identifiers after playback starts |
| Google Maps (contact page) | The map is loaded only when you press “Show map”; otherwise the address link simply takes you to the Google Maps site. | Google cookies and identifiers after the map loads |
| Social media links | When Instagram, YouTube or Facebook links are clicked | That platform's cookies (on its own site) |
| WhatsApp link | When the WhatsApp button is clicked | Records created on the WhatsApp/Meta side |
The use of cookies by these services is governed by the privacy and cookie policies of the companies concerned. To learn more you should review those policies.
4. Server logs
Independently of cookies, the server hosting the site may keep technical records: IP address, browser information, the page requested and a timestamp. These records are kept for site security and error tracking. For details, see the Privacy Policy.
5. How can you manage cookies?
You can delete or block cookies in your browser settings. If strictly necessary cookies are blocked, parts of the site may not work correctly.

You can also use your browser's private browsing mode so that cookies are cleared at the end of the session.
6. Changes
This policy will be updated before a new tool (for example an analytics package or an advertising pixel) is added to the site. The effective date is shown at the top of the page.
