Site visit

• The site does not use cookies.
• The site does not use any analytics or advertising tool to track visitors.
• Fonts are served from this site; no third-party font service is connected to.
• The site is hosted by GitHub Pages (USA). When you request a page, the host may keep your IP address in its own server logs. These logs are subject to the host’s own policy.

• You do not need to provide personal data to browse the site.

Trial form

This section explains, under Article 10 of the Personal Data Protection Law No. 6698 (the “Law”), the personal data processed when you fill in the trial form on the site.

Data controller

What data is processed

• What you type into the form: full name, e-mail address, company or organisation (optional), the workspace you choose.
• What is generated automatically: the language of the page, the country the request came from, the time of the request and a short digest derived from your IP address with a secret key. The IP address itself is not stored; the digest cannot be turned back into the address without the key.
• Your request is reported to the data controller by e-mail, together with the details you typed into the form.
• When the form appears on screen, Cloudflare’s bot check (Turnstile) is loaded. During this check your IP address and technical information about your browser reach Cloudflare.

Purpose and legal basis

• Sending the installer link to your e-mail address and replying to your request: performance of your request (Law Art. 5/2-c).
• Preventing misuse of the form (counting requests from the same place, separating bots): the legitimate interest of the data controller (Law Art. 5/2-f).

No marketing messages are sent to your address. You are sent only the installer link, once your request is approved; a second request from the same address is not accepted within 24 hours.

Retention period

Form records are kept for 365 days and then deleted automatically. The notification e-mails sent to the data controller are also deleted at the end of this period at the latest. Misuse counters are kept for 7 days.

Transfer

Form records are kept in a database in the European Union region, on the infrastructure of Cloudflare, Inc. (USA). The installer e-mail and the bot check also run through Cloudflare. This is a transfer abroad within the meaning of Article 9 of the Law. When you download the installer, your IP address again reaches Cloudflare. The notification of your request stays in the data controller’s mailbox (on the servers of the e-mail service provider).

Apart from these, your data is not shared with third parties and is not sold. When legally authorised authorities request it, only the data within the scope of the request is provided.

Your rights

Under Article 11 of the Law you have the right to learn whether your data is processed, to request information, to request correction or deletion, and to object to processing. You can write your application to bilgi@atacad.com.tr; it is answered free of charge within 30 days at the latest. When you ask for your form record to be deleted, the record and the notification e-mail of your request are deleted.

Program

The ATA CAD program processes separate data for the trial and for licence verification. The program shows its own privacy notice on first launch; that text can also be opened from the trial window.
