What Is a Cookie?
A cookie is a small text file that the websites you visit store in your browser. Thanks to cookies, a site can recognise you at the next step; for example, the products you add to your basket are not lost when you move to another page. This policy explains which cookies we use on ankaratel.com and how you can manage them.
Cookies Used on Our Website
The cookies used on our website fall into two groups.
Strictly necessary cookies
These are required for the website to function and cannot be switched off. If they are disabled, basket and order operations will not work.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Session cookie (PHP session) | Preserving your basket across pages and form security (CSRF protection) | Until the browser is closed |
| Cloudflare security cookies | Distinguishing bot and attack traffic, ensuring site security | Short-lived |
Analytics cookies
We use Google Analytics (GA4) to understand how the website is used. These cookies measure how often pages are viewed, where visitors come to the site from and which devices they use, on an aggregated and anonymous basis. We do not identify individual people with this data.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| _ga | Distinguishing visitors from one another | Up to 2 years |
| _ga_<id> | Maintaining session state | Up to 2 years |
Cookies We Do Not Use
No advertising or remarketing cookies are used on our website. Your visitor behaviour is not shared with advertising networks, and no profile is created in order to show you adverts on other websites. As the site has no membership system, there is no persistent login cookie either.
How Can You Manage Cookies?
You can delete or block cookies from your browser settings. In common browsers, the relevant section is opened as follows:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Third-party cookies
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Settings → Privacy
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions
If you block strictly necessary cookies, you will not be able to add products to your basket or place an order. Blocking analytics cookies does not affect the operation of the website.
Opting Out of Google Analytics
If you wish to switch off measurement cookies only, you can disable Google Analytics measurement on all websites using the browser add-on published by Google. This preference is stored in your browser and does not affect the other functions of our website.
Relationship with Personal Data
Data obtained through cookies is subject to the principles explained in our Privacy Policy. For detailed information and for your rights under the KVKK, you may review our Privacy Policy page.
Changes and Contact
This policy is updated if the tools used on the website change. You may send your questions about the use of cookies to info@ankaratel.com.
