Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 25, 2026

1. Data Controller

This Privacy Policy is prepared by the following entity acting as data controller under the Turkish Personal Data Protection Law No. 6698 ("KVKK") and the EU General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR"):

Trading Name: Keskintech Marketplaces
Data Controller: Furkan Keskintaş
Address: SUNAY MAH. ERZURUM CAD. I BLOK NO: 15 I İÇ KAPI NO: 5 MERKEZ/ MUŞ
Email: info@keskintechmarketplaces.com

2. Data We Collect

2.1 Account Registration Data

When you create an account, we collect:

  • First and last name
  • Company name
  • Email address
  • Website URL
  • Password (stored as a one-way hash; never stored in plain text)

2.2 Billing & Payment Data

When purchasing a subscription, you may provide billing information including:

  • Billing name / company name
  • Billing address
  • Tax identification number

We do not store credit or debit card details. All payment transactions are processed by iyzico Ödeme Hizmetleri A.Ş., a payment institution licensed by the Banking Regulation and Supervision Agency (BDDK). Card data is handled exclusively within iyzico's PCI DSS-compliant environment.

2.3 Marketplace Integration Data

When you connect your store via the Keskintech Marketplaces plugin:

  • Marketplace API credentials: API keys for Trendyol, Pazarama and other supported marketplaces are encrypted on the client side before leaving your browser — the plaintext key never reaches our servers. We store only the encrypted form in our API gateway (apigw). Your e-commerce platform installation retains only a fingerprint token.
  • Product data: Title, SKU, description, images, price, stock levels and all other product fields, processed for the purpose of syncing to marketplaces.
  • Order data: Orders pulled from marketplaces may include buyer name, delivery address, line items and payment totals. This data is currently not stored — it is forwarded directly to your e-commerce store in real time. Should we introduce order analytics in the future, separate explicit consent will be obtained before that feature is activated.

2.4 Usage & Analytics Data

Only with your consent, anonymised usage data is collected via Google Analytics 4 (pages visited, session duration, device type). You can manage cookie preferences via our Cookie Policy.

2.5 Security & Technical Data

To prevent abuse, technical data such as IP address, request timestamps and failed login attempts are processed temporarily. This data is not used for analytics purposes.

8. Our Role as Data Processor

When the Keskintech Marketplaces plugin pulls orders from marketplaces (Trendyol, Pazarama, etc.), those orders may contain personal data belonging to your customers (buyer name, delivery address, etc.).

In this context:

  • You are the data controller for your customers' data; we act solely as a data processor.
  • We process buyer data only for the purpose of delivering orders to your e-commerce store.
  • We do not use this data for marketing, profiling or sharing with third parties.
  • This data is not currently stored on our infrastructure.

If you are subject to GDPR, a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) is available upon request at info@keskintechmarketplaces.com.

  • Request correction of incomplete or inaccurate data
  • Request deletion or destruction under the conditions set out in Article 7
