PRIVACY POLICY, PERSONAL DATA PROTECTION POLICY AND CONSENT TO ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS
Taji Giyim Sanayi ve Ticaret Limited Şirketi (“Taji”, “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”), as the operator of www.taji.com.tr (the “Website”), hereby declares that it has adopted this Privacy Policy in accordance with the principles set forth below in order to protect the privacy and personal data of its members and users.
The purpose of this Privacy Policy is to inform you about the types of personal data collected through our Website, how such personal data is used, the persons and entities with whom your personal data may be shared, your rights in relation to the personal data processed by us and how you may exercise those rights, as well as your consent to receive commercial electronic communications and the manner in which you may amend or withdraw such consent.
In accordance with our legal obligations and service standards arising primarily from Law No. 5651 on the Regulation of Publications on the Internet and Combating Crimes Committed by Means of Such Publications and its secondary legislation, Law No. 6563 on the Regulation of Electronic Commerce and its secondary legislation, the Turkish Criminal Code No. 5237, the Law No. 6698 on the Protection of Personal Data (“KVKK”), and other applicable legislation, we may request certain personal data from you in order to provide our services more effectively and to conduct statistical analyses.
Such personal data may include, without limitation, your first name, surname, date of birth, mobile telephone number, landline telephone number, email address, gender, postal address, and, where you connect to the Website through social media accounts, any information that you have consented to share through such platforms, as well as any other information that directly or indirectly identifies you.
Your personal data will be processed and stored for the purpose of enabling you to benefit from our services, on the basis of your explicit consent where such consent is required, within the purposes and scope specified in this Privacy and Personal Data Protection Policy, and subject to appropriate information-security measures.
Collection and Use of Personal Data
Various forms available on our Website through which information is collected, including membership and purchase forms, transmit your contact information, such as your first name, surname, email address, mobile telephone number, landline telephone number and postal address, as well as certain demographic information, to our systems.
Our purchase forms may also require the provision of financial information, such as credit card information.
Your personal data may be used to receive and process your orders, provide our products and services, process payments, contact you regarding your orders and our products, conduct marketing activities where legally permitted, update your information, administer and maintain your membership, and recommend products that may be of interest to you.
We use demographic information to identify the preferences of our users and to operate various automated algorithms designed to enable us to provide services tailored to such preferences. Except where otherwise required, such information is not manually reviewed by individuals.
Payment and Financial Information
When you make a purchase through our Website, you acknowledge that the financial information necessary to complete your transaction and prevent fraud may be transmitted directly to relevant third parties, including banks, credit card companies and payment service providers.
The information transmitted may include all financial information required to process the transaction, including, without limitation, the credit card number, expiry date and CVV.
However, credit card transactions and authorisations are carried out online directly between you and the relevant banks and card/payment institutions, independently of our Website. Accordingly, our Website does not access or store sensitive credit card information such as your full credit card number or card security credentials.
Only limited portions of your card number may be retained for the purpose of identifying and accessing your transaction information, in accordance with applicable laws and security requirements.
Commercial Electronic Communications
When registering as a member of www.taji.com.tr, you may be expressly asked to provide your consent to receive commercial electronic communications containing marketing, advertising, informational, discount, promotional and similar content, and, where applicable, to the sharing of the information required for such communications with our service providers and business partners.
Where you provide such consent, commercial electronic communications may be sent to you by email and/or SMS, depending on the communication channels to which you have consented.
You may withdraw your consent and unsubscribe from such communications at any time by contacting us or by using the unsubscribe mechanism provided in the relevant email or SMS communication, where available.
Information relating to purchases made through our Website and personal information registered on our Website may, subject to the KVKK and other applicable legislation and the consents and other lawful processing grounds required thereunder, be recorded, used, processed and shared with our business partners for sales, marketing, advertising, discounts, promotions, information, communications and other legitimate commercial purposes.
