DATA CONTROLS
Privacy Choices And Data Rights
This page explains how to delete your account, obtain a copy of your data, manage optional data-use choices and exercise your personal-data rights. Reading it does not constitute consent to any processing.
01
Get A Copy Of Your Data
After signing in, open Settings → Your data → Download my data to obtain a copy of your information. The download is provided in JSON, a format that can be read by software. In the mobile app, you can have the same information sent to the verified email address on your account; it cannot be sent to another address.
The copy includes your account and profile information, contributions, social activity, consent and acceptance records, optional usage-analysis data and any earlier BiteData or demographic choices still linked to your account. It excludes other members’ private data, passwords and information that could compromise account or service security.
02
Delete Your Account
On the website or in the app, open Settings → Your data → Delete account. After verifying that the account belongs to you and confirming the request, your account and directly associated data are permanently removed. Limited records may be kept separately where required by law or necessary to establish, exercise or protect a legal claim.
Account deletion cannot be undone. Retained legal records do not allow the account to be restored. Copies in backups are subject to the applicable retention periods. The Privacy Notice explains retention and deletion in more detail.
03
Your Reviews On The Public Internet
A review is opened to readers who are not signed in only when you choose that audience for that review after reading the publication notice. Declining does not change the existing member visibility of your review. Search and answer tools may index, link to or quote a public review.
You can turn off an existing publication choice in the area below the review-publication notice after signing in. You do not need to make a new age declaration or accept new Terms to withdraw it. Our public copy is withdrawn; third-party search results and cached copies may take longer to disappear.
04
Optional Usage Analysis
With your separate explicit consent, limited information about use of BITESCORE. and technical errors may be collected to improve the service. Collection remains off unless you give that consent after reading the notice presented to you. This permission does not cover advertising, sale of data, tracking across other apps or websites, recordings of your browsing sessions, the text of your searches or your private content.
You can give or withdraw consent in Settings → Privacy choices. Withdrawal stops new collection, removes data waiting to be sent from your device and starts deletion as described in the Privacy Notice. A limited record of your choice may be retained separately where necessary to establish, exercise or protect a legal claim, for the period specified in that notice.
05
BiteData Demographic Contribution Is Off
The BiteData business service and demographic contribution feature are currently unavailable. No new birth-year, gender or province information is collected for BiteData, and new consent is not requested for this purpose.
Any information or consent record retained from earlier participation is not being used for BiteData and does not authorise future use. You may still request a copy or deletion of that information, withdraw an earlier consent or submit a KVKK application. If the service is offered in the future, you will receive a new notice and be asked for a new choice. Earlier participation will not automatically permit commercial use of your contributions.
05
KVKK Request And Other Rights
For requests that cannot be completed through your account settings, contact the data controller, Ömer Taha Tonbaklar, using the legal contact address. Include name and surname; Turkish identity number for Turkish citizens; nationality and passport or other identity number, if any, for foreign applicants; address for service; any notification email, telephone and fax details; the request; and relevant documents. A written application requires a signature and a representative must provide authority evidence. Ordinary email must come from an address previously provided to BITESCORE. and registered in its system.
Eligible requests are answered as soon as possible and within 30 days at the latest. A fee may be requested only where an applicable official tariff permits it. Do not send more identity data than is needed for verification.
