AKAY - Privacy Policy and KVKK Lighting
PRIVACY POLICY AND KVKK DISCLOSURE
PRIVACY AND SECURITY OF YOUR MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION
All information you provide when registering on our store will not be shared with third-party companies or individuals by www.akay.com.tr.
Our store may send campaign information, new product information, and promotional information to its customers and members from time to time. Our members can choose whether to receive such information during registration and can later change this selection from the account information section after logging in.
Only you can access and change all the information you provide during registration. If you secure your login information, it is impossible for others to access and alter your information. For this purpose, a 128-bit SSL security area is used during the membership process. This system is an international encryption standard that is impossible to break.
The security of the information exchanged between the customer and www.akay.com.tr's Secure Payment System is ensured by a layer called SSL (Secure Socket Layer). In our 128-bit SSL-certified Payment System, your credit card information or any part of it is not recorded, and no one except the bank that issued your credit card can access your card information. After entering and verifying your credit card information in a secure area, it is sent to your bank's approval system, and your payment is completed with the approval from your bank.
CREDIT CARD SECURITY
Our company prioritizes the security of credit cardholders who shop on our e-commerce sites. Your credit card information is not stored in our system in any way.
When you enter the transaction process, there are two things to pay attention to to understand that you are on a secure site. One is a key or lock icon at the bottom of your browser. This indicates that you are on a secure internet page, and all your information is encrypted and protected. This information is only used according to the instructions you provide during the sales process. The credit card information used during the shopping process is encrypted with the 128-bit SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) protocol by Rapid, independent of our e-commerce sites, and sent to the relevant bank for inquiry. If the card's availability is approved, the shopping continues. Since no information about the card can be viewed or recorded by us, it is prevented from being accessed by third parties under any circumstances.
The reliability of payment/billing/delivery address information for orders placed online with a credit card is checked by our company against Credit Card Fraud. Therefore, for first-time orders from our e-commerce sites, the accuracy of financial and address/phone information must be confirmed to reach the supply and delivery stage of the order. If necessary, the credit cardholder customer or the relevant bank is contacted for the verification of this information.
Today, internet shopping sites with an information line or customer service, and clear address and telephone information, are more preferred. This way, you can get detailed information about all the issues you have in mind and gain healthier information about the reliability of the company providing online shopping services.
Note: We recommend paying attention to the presence of the company's clear address and telephone on internet shopping sites. If you are going to shop, note down all the phone/address information of the store where you are buying the product before making your purchase. If you do not trust it, confirm by calling before shopping. All information and the location of our company are specified on the online shopping site belonging to www.akay.com.tr.
EMAIL SECURITY
Never write your credit card number or passwords in the emails you send to our Customer Service regarding any of your orders. Information in emails can be seen by third parties. Our company cannot guarantee the security of the information transmitted from your emails under any circumstances.
