Website Cookie Policy / (Publication Date: 01.07.2025)
1. INTRODUCTION
Cookie Policy is an informative document that explains what personal data is stored for any device that accesses a website, such as a smartphone, tablet, or computer, for what purpose(s) this personal data is used, and how it functions.
As "K YAPI GAYRİMENKUL GELİŞTİRME İNŞAAT SANAYİ VE DIŞ TİCARET ANONİM ŞİRKETİ" ("K YAPI GAYRİMENKUL" or "we"), located at "ATATÜRK MAHALLESİ ATAPARK CADDE NO: 4/5 ATAŞEHİR, İSTANBUL", we place cookies on our website to ensure the proper functioning of our website (kyapi.com) and to provide the most relevant services to our visitors and suppliers ("user(s)" or "you").
This Information Text – Website Cookie has been prepared to provide you with information about cookies and how to control them.
2. WHAT ARE COOKIES?
A cookie is a small piece of information stored on your computer's hard drive by the browser you use.
Every click you make on a visited website leaves a trace on your computer. This is because it allows you to quickly navigate to the same website without wasting time when you visit it again.
Cookies can contain information about visitors' preferences because, with ever-evolving technology, visitors frequently make their purchases through websites. Visitor behavior is tracked on websites, allowing them to tailor advertising to the visitor. The files containing this small piece of information are called cookies. Most websites use cookies.
3. THIRD-PARTY COOKIES
Primary cookies are cookies created by the domain name at the access address of the website you are visiting. Content presented on the visited site may be provided through domains other than the domain name at the access address (for example, viewing content hosted on a video platform through a social media site); in this case, each domain may create its own unique third-party cookies.
4. WHY DO WE USE COOKIES?
We may use cookies for the following purposes:
To enable users to navigate the site and benefit from the services and features provided,
To store information about users (on user devices or browser caches) and website usage,
To enhance the site's functionality and personalize it based on users' site preferences,
To analyze users' site usage and determine general site trends,
To display targeted advertisements based on users' interests and/or profiles, and to conduct other marketing activities
Cookies are generally used to provide visitors with a personalized experience when accessing websites, to enhance the services offered, and to improve the visitor experience. This ensures ease of use and speed when navigating a website. In short, the primary reason for using cookies is to provide convenience for website visitors. For example, if you select the "Remember Me" option when logging into a website, that website saves a cookie containing your username in your browser. This eliminates the need to re-enter your username and password when returning to the same website.
The web server associates the visitor with the visitor's web browser, not with the individual. In fact, if you regularly browse Chrome and attempt to navigate to the same website with Firefox or Internet Explorer, the website won't recognize the same visitor because it associates the browser, not the individual.
Cookies are generally used on e-commerce sites to determine advertising preferences. For example, if you search for "shoes" on a search engine and visit several websites selling shoes, the ads you see will soon consist entirely of shoes. Cookies also anonymously record your usage habits and enable you to display ads tailored to your interests and the products you search for.
Determining advertising preferences isn't the sole purpose of cookies. Many personal data, such as political, religious, and sexual preferences, can be processed through cookies. For example, the political party or religious views you visit or research on the website may also be recorded through cookies.

5. GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS OF COOKIES
Cookies function as session cookies and persistent cookies on our site. Session cookies stop working when you close your browser. Persistent cookies, on the other hand, can remain on your hard drive for an extended period of time.
6. TYPES OF COOKIES USED
6.1 Cookie Types in Terms of Storage Period
6.1.1 Persistent Cookies
Cookies are cookies that persist on a person's computer until a specific date (which should not exceed 12 months according to the GDPR e-Privacy Directive) or until deleted by the visitor. These cookies are often used to measure visitors' website activity and preferences. For example, username, password, items added to cart, etc.
6.1.2 Session Cookies
Session cookies last for the duration of a "browser session." A browser session begins when the web browser opens the visitor's browser window and ends when the browser window is closed. All temporary cookies are deleted when the browser is closed. For example, searching for a product on the site using the search button or using the filtering feature.
6.2 Types of Cookies in Terms of Use
6.2.1 Mandatory/Technical Cookies
Cookies used to navigate the website and utilize its features are mandatory/technical cookies. Without these cookies, the website's core services cannot be used.
These cookies are needed for system management and to prevent fraudulent transactions. If they are blocked, the website will not function. For example, if a website has a filtering feature, search engine, etc., removing mandatory/technical cookies may prevent you from using these features.
6.2.2 Performance and Analysis Cookies
Cookies collect information such as how a website is used by visitors, which pages are accessed most frequently, and whether error messages are displayed. They are used to enhance user-friendliness and tailor websites specifically to individual visitors.
These types of cookies collect information such as how the website is used, the frequency and number of visits, and indicate how visitors navigate the website and what behavioral preferences they have within the website. The purpose of these cookies is to improve the website's functionality, enhance performance, ensure ease of use, and identify general website visitor usage trends. For example, they display the pages you visit most often, the pages you spend most time on, and the products you view.
6.2.3 Targeting/Advertising Cookies
Cookies are used to provide personalized ads to visitors based on information collected about browsing habits. They remember previous website visits and share this information with other institutions and organizations. This allows visitors to reach ads that are relevant to their interests. While these cookies can track visits to other websites, they generally cannot identify the visitor because the data collected is not linked to the visitor. Without these cookies, visitors will encounter less content relevant to their interests. For example, you might see an ad for a product you viewed on one e-commerce website appear on another website.
6.3. Types of Party Cookies
6.3.1 First Party Cookies
First-party cookies are legally defined as cookies that are not strictly necessary for using a website, but they perform important functions that enhance the browsing experience. For example, they ensure that your language selection and similar settings are stored. These types of cookies are defined by the visited website and can only be read by that website.
6.3.2 Third Party Cookies
If a website has third-party cookies integrated into it, some cookies may be used even if the visitor doesn't directly visit that website. These types of cookies are called third-party cookies.
These cookies are used to collect information about the visitor and recognize them when they visit the website, allowing them to present a personalized website. For example, cookies used to track your behavior on one website and display ads on another website.
7. HOW TO CONTROL/DISABLE COOKIES?
You can customize your cookie preferences by changing your browser settings. Depending on your browser's capabilities, you can prevent the use of cookies, receive a warning before a cookie is used, or disable or delete only certain cookies. Cookie-related preferences must be deleted separately for each device (browser settings) from which you access our site.
