Learn which cookies OSKON uses, their purposes and retention periods, how third-party cookies operate and how to manage your browser preferences.
We use cookies to improve your experience on our website at https://www.oskon.com.tr/ (the “Sites”). This Cookie Policy forms part of OSKON’s Privacy Policy and covers the use of cookies between your device and our Sites. The Sites may use cookies produced and served outside the EU and Türkiye, which may result in certain data being transferred to third countries. Although third-party services are not governed by this Policy, this document also provides basic information about third-party services we may use that employ cookies as part of their services.
If you do not wish to accept cookies from us, you should instruct your browser to reject cookies from our Sites, with the understanding that we may then be unable to provide some of the content and services you request.
Our application websites that provide SaaS services do not use cookies.
What Is a Cookie?
A cookie is a small piece of data that a website stores on your device when you visit it. It usually contains information about the website itself, a unique identifier that allows the site to recognise your browser when you return, additional data serving the purpose of the cookie, and the cookie’s lifetime.
Cookies are used to enable specific functions, such as signing in; track site usage, such as analytics; store user settings, such as time zone and notification preferences; and personalise content, such as advertising and language.
Cookies set by the website you are visiting are generally called “first-party cookies” and usually track only your activity on that particular site. Cookies set by other sites and companies—third parties—are called “third-party cookies” and may be used to track you across other websites that use the same third-party service.
Types of Cookies and How We Use Them
Strictly necessary cookies
Strictly necessary cookies are essential to the website experience and enable core functions such as user login, account management, shopping carts and payment processing. We use strictly necessary cookies to enable specific functions on our website.
Performance cookies
Performance cookies track how you use a website during your visit without collecting information that directly identifies you. This information is typically anonymous and combined with data tracked across all site users. It helps organisations understand usage patterns, identify and diagnose problems or errors users may encounter, and make better strategic decisions to improve the overall website experience. These cookies may be set by the website you visit as first-party cookies or by third-party services. We use performance cookies on our Sites.
Functionality cookies
Functionality cookies collect information about your device and settings you configure on the website, such as language and time-zone preferences. Websites use this information to provide customised, enhanced or optimised content and services. These cookies may be set by the website you visit as first-party cookies or by third-party services. We use functionality cookies for selected features on our Sites.
Targeting and advertising cookies
Targeting and advertising cookies help determine which promotional content is more relevant and appropriate to you and your interests. Websites may use them to deliver targeted advertising or limit how often an advertisement is shown. This helps organisations improve campaign effectiveness and the quality of content presented to you. These cookies may be set by the website you visit as first-party cookies or by third-party services. Third-party targeting and advertising cookies may track you across other websites using the same service. We use targeting and advertising cookies on our Sites.
