What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small browser record. For example, it keeps a gallery session open after you enter its PIN. It does not contain photos or contract PDFs. Local browser storage also remembers your cookie choice.
Essential and optional storage
Session and security records support the services you request. Google Analytics 4 is optional and off by default. Until you choose “Allow analytics”, its tag is not loaded and no analytics request is sent to Google. Choosing “Essential cookies only” does not prevent using the site or enquiry form. Advertising, remarketing and Google signals features are not enabled.
| Record | Purpose / scope | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| siral_… | Essential private-gallery session after PIN entry. | Up to 12 hours. |
| Guest album session | Essential QR album upload session. | Up to 6 hours. |
| Cloudflare Access | Administrator authentication, separate from the public site. | 24 hours; provider security records have their own retention. |
| siral.analytics-consent.v1 | Your analytics choice and its date, in local browser storage. | 180 days; change it at any time. |
| _ga, _ga_M3LJ8MD52R | Google Analytics browser and session identifiers, with permission only. | Up to 180 days; removed from this site’s browser cookies on withdrawal. |
What is measured with permission?
We measure public page visits, successfully saved enquiries, email/phone/WhatsApp link clicks and ZET links in the blog. Names, phone numbers, email addresses, messages and contract details entered in forms are not sent to Analytics. Private galleries, QR albums, signing, verification and management pages are excluded. Query strings are removed from measured URLs; external referrers are limited to their origin. Google also processes browser, device and connection information to provide its service.
Analytics data is processed by Google and may be processed outside Türkiye. User- and event-level retention is set to 2 months; this does not mean aggregated reports are deleted at the same time. Details: Google Privacy Policy.
Changing your choice
Use “Cookie preferences” in the footer to turn analytics on or off. Turning it off stops new measurement, removes Analytics cookies and reloads the page. This does not automatically delete data previously sent with permission. Your choice applies to this browser; other devices require their own choice. Clearing browser storage or expiry of your preference causes us to ask again.
Security and other services
Cloudflare Turnstile protects the enquiry form, and Cloudflare security services protect hosting and administrator access. They may process IP, browser and request information to prevent abuse. Instagram images are served through this site; opening an external link makes that service’s own policies apply. Private client files are separate from this optional analytics permission.
