Privacy
Consent
In Turkish: Açık rıza
Your free, informed agreement to let a company use your data in a specific way. You should be able to say no and to withdraw it later.
Many sites push you to press "accept all" with a bright button, while the choice to refuse is small or hidden. Real consent is specific, not bundled with unrelated things, and not a condition for something that does not need your data.
Not every use of data needs your consent; the law also allows some uses for other reasons, such as a contract or a legal duty. If you gave consent, you can usually take it back in the app's settings or by writing to the company.
What to do
- Look for the "manage" or "reject" option instead of pressing accept at once.
- Turn off consent for marketing and data sharing you do not want.
- Review old consents in the settings of apps you still use.
