A membership account may be created by natural persons with full legal capacity and by legal entities acting through their authorized representatives.

The person creating an account on behalf of a legal entity acknowledges that they are authorized to represent the relevant legal entity.

The Member agrees that the information provided during registration is accurate, current, and complete. A membership account cannot be created using the identity, contact, address, or payment information of another person.

Unless otherwise explicitly stated, membership is free of charge.

4. ESTABLISHMENT OF MEMBERSHIP

Membership is established upon the completion of the mandatory fields in the membership form, acceptance of this Agreement in an electronic environment, and the creation of the account by the system.

The Business may reject a membership application in the following cases:

  1. If the information is incorrect, incomplete, misleading, or belongs to another person,
  2. If the application carries an unlawful intent,
  3. If it is reasonably assessed that the account will be used for fraud, fake orders, or campaign abuse,
  4. If the applicant’s previous membership was terminated due to severe or repeated breaches of contract,
  5. If the application threatens the security of the website or other users.

Applications cannot be rejected on arbitrary or discriminatory grounds.

5. ACCOUNT SECURITY

The Member is responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their account login information and password.

The Member must immediately notify the Business if they notice unauthorized use of their account or if account security has been compromised.

The Business may require a password reset, email or phone verification if there is a suspicion of a security breach, and may temporarily restrict the account until security is restored.

Liability arising from unauthorized use is determined based on the circumstances of the specific case and the fault of the parties.

6. MEMBER’S OBLIGATIONS

The Member agrees that they will;

  1. Use the website in accordance with the law and the rules of honesty,

Temporary interruptions may occur due to maintenance, updates, infrastructure work, internet outages, cyberattacks, or reasons beyond the reasonable control of the Business.

The Business may make changes to the technical specifications of the website and membership services. Changes shall not invalidate completed orders, vested rights, or rights arising from mandatory legislation.

This Agreement does not limit the Business's liability arising from intent, gross negligence, or mandatory legislation.

8. ORDERS

Creating a membership account does not mean that any product has been purchased or an order has been accepted.

The establishment, payment, preparation, delivery, cancellation, and return of orders are subject to the Preliminary Information Form and the Distance Sales Agreement pertaining to the specific order.

Termination of membership does not eliminate rights and obligations concerning payment, delivery, returns, warranties, and other matters arising from previously created orders.

9. PRODUCT REVIEWS AND CONTENT

Reviews, evaluations, photos, and other content shared by the Member must be in accordance with the law and the rights of third parties.

Posts containing insults, threats, personal data, advertisements, spam, fake reviews, intellectual property violations, or illegal content may not be published or may be removed.

The Member acknowledges that they hold the necessary rights and permissions for the content they share.

10. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

The trademarks, logos, designs, software, text, product descriptions, photos, graphics, videos, and other content on the website belong to the Business or relevant rights holders.

This content may not be copied, reproduced, modified, published, or used for commercial purposes without permission.

Using the website does not grant the Member any intellectual property rights.

11. PERSONAL DATA

Personal data belonging to the Member is processed in accordance with the Personal Data Protection Law No. 6698 and relevant legislation.

Details regarding the processing of personal data are explained in the KVKK (Personal Data Protection Law) Clarification Text published on the website.

Creating a membership does not automatically imply consent to receive commercial electronic messages for advertising or marketing purposes. Necessary consents are obtained separately from the membership acceptance.

13. TERMINATION OF MEMBERSHIP

The Member may terminate their membership by using the closing option in their account or by contacting bilgi@cigdemkundura.com.

The Business may terminate the membership in cases of account creation with fake information, fraud, illegal transactions, severe or repeated contract breaches, campaign abuse, attacks on system security, or upon the request of authorized institutions.

Termination of membership does not eliminate the Member's rights and obligations arising from completed orders and legislation.

14. ACCOUNT CLOSING AND DATA RETENTION

Closing an account does not mean all personal data will be deleted immediately.

Records of orders, invoices, payments, accounting, delivery, returns, and legal transactions may be retained for the duration of statutory retention periods.

When the legal grounds requiring the processing of data expire, the data will be deleted, destroyed, or anonymized in accordance with the legislation.

15. AMENDMENTS TO THE AGREEMENT

The Business may make changes to this Agreement for reasons such as legislative amendments, technical requirements, security needs, or the development of services.

Changes that significantly affect the rights and obligations of the Member will be announced using an appropriate method.

Changes shall not be applied retroactively to completed orders and vested rights.

16. DISPUTES

Turkish law shall apply to this Agreement.

In disputes arising from consumer transactions, applications can be made to consumer arbitration committees, consumer courts, and other authorized authorities in accordance with applicable legislation.

In disputes that do not qualify as consumer transactions, jurisdiction and authority are determined according to general legal provisions.
