Publication policies

Cookie Policy

Clear information about your reading experience.

Metasharing uses a simple reading experience: the publication application does not set cookies, save preferences in browser storage, or run audience tracking. This policy explains what that means, how the theme control works, and what happens when you follow an external link. The publication is operated by KUTLU KURUMSAL İÇERİK HİZMETLERİ ANONİM ŞİRKETİ.

Cookies and similar technologies

A cookie is a small item of information a website asks a browser to keep and return with later requests. Browser storage can also preserve information between pages or visits. Other techniques, such as a tracking pixel or a device fingerprint, can identify or measure activity without using a traditional cookie. The publication application does not use any of these methods to recognise readers.

There is no account session, analytics integration, advertising identifier, remarketing tag, or embedded social media widget. Reading an article does not require accepting optional storage or measurement. The application does not access existing cookies for advertising or combine information from other websites.

What the publication application uses

Cookies
None set or read by the publication application.
Persistent or session browser storage
None used for preferences, identifiers, or reading activity.
Audience and advertising measurement
No analytics scripts, tracking pixels, click measurement, or conversion tags.
Theme selection
A temporary display choice within the open page, without a saved preference.

Day and night display modes

Each newly loaded page opens with a light background. The theme button lets you change the open page to a dark appearance and back again. The choice changes only the current page's presentation. It is not sent to an advertising company, written to a cookie, or stored in local or session storage.

Following a link to a newly loaded page or reloading starts with the light appearance again. Your browser may preserve an already open page when using its back or forward controls; this is browser behaviour and does not create a stored reader profile. The articles and navigation remain available without changing the display mode.

Advertising and links

The single sponsor placement is separate from the main content. No sponsor advertisement is currently displayed. The empty placement loads no advertising content. The publication application embeds no advertising network and makes no automatic request to a sponsor's website.

A sponsor or source link takes you to a separate website only if you choose to follow it. That website can have different cookies and privacy practices. Its own notice describes those practices; this policy covers the publication you are reading. An ordinary link is not an embedded tracker.

Browser caching and technical records

Your browser may retain copies of images, styles, and pages to display them efficiently. This ordinary cache is different from a cookie or a saved advertising identifier. The website does not use cached assets to assign an identifier to you or reconstruct your browsing history.

Page delivery still involves technical requests. Hosting infrastructure may retain request records according to its configuration. Disabling cookies does not prevent a web server from receiving the information needed to answer a request. The Privacy Policy describes technical information, correspondence, retention, and the available rights.

Network delivery infrastructure

The application behavior described above is separate from Cloudflare, which forms part of the infrastructure through which a page reaches your browser.

The current network delivery configuration instructs compatible browsers to send reports of failed connections to a.nel.cloudflare.com. The browser reporting instruction remains valid for up to seven days unless refreshed; this is not the retention period of reports held by the provider. Diagnostic reporting is separate from advertising and audience tracking. The publication application does not set cookies or save identifiers in browser storage.

Network features may behave differently from the publication application. An initial response without a cookie does not establish the behavior of every connection or configuration. The provider describes its infrastructure technologies in its cookie documentation and its network reporting documentation. These references describe the provider's technologies; they do not mean that every listed feature is enabled here.

Your choices and future changes

You can use your browser's controls to review cookies, clear cached files, or restrict storage. The publication application does not require a cookie to display its pages. Separate infrastructure can have the requirements described above. Browser settings apply independently to any external websites you visit.

The publication application currently has no optional cookie purpose to accept or reject and does not present a cookie consent banner. Browsing is not treated as consent. If the site's technology changes, the description of each actual purpose, provider, and duration must be updated before activation. Where consent is required, the relevant technology must remain inactive until a valid choice is made, and withdrawing that choice must be as straightforward as giving it. The European Union's official online privacy guidance explains these principles.
