Cookie Policy
Last updated: 13.10.2026
This Cookie Policy explains which cookies and similar technologies are used on altekklima.com.tr and how you can manage your preferences.
1. What is a Cookie?
Cookies are small text files placed on your browser by websites you visit. They are used to remember preferences, measure performance and secure your session.
1A. Data Minimization
This website operates as a public information presence only; no CRM, marketing list, or behavioural profiling system is maintained. The only cookie categories processed are the strictly necessary cookies listed below and, only with your consent, Google Analytics with anonymised IP and Microsoft Clarity. No advertising, remarketing or cross-device tracking cookies are used.
2. Categories of Cookies We Use
- Strictly necessary: required for core site functions; do not require consent. Examples: session/security, language preference, cookie-consent storage (altek_cookie_consent).
- Google Analytics 4 (anonymized IP): aggregated traffic measurement only. Google Tag Manager (GTM-5RRF33RN, Google Ireland Limited), and Google Analytics 4 (G-5KN20MVTF6) through it, are loaded only after you click "Accept". Clicks on WhatsApp, phone (tel:) and Google Maps links are counted as GA4 events, only with your consent. No advertising features, no remarketing audiences, no cross-device tracking are enabled.
- Microsoft Clarity (Microsoft Corporation): turns clicks, scrolls and mouse movement into heatmaps and session recordings, used only to improve the usability of the site. Loaded through Google Tag Manager and only after you click "Accept"; not used for advertising.
- Advertising / Marketing cookies: NOT USED. The Site sets no advertising or third-party marketing cookies.
3. Cookie Details
- altek_cookie_consent — Strictly necessary — provider: site — type: browser localStorage (not a cookie) — retention: stored with the decision date, asked again after 12 months — purpose: cookie-consent storage
- _ga — Analytics — provider: Google — retention: 2 years — purpose: distinguish unique visitors (only after consent)
- _ga_5KN20MVTF6 — Analytics — provider: Google — retention: 2 years — purpose: session state (only after consent)

4. Consent and Preference Management
A cookie notice is shown on your first visit. If you click "Accept", Google Tag Manager loads Google Analytics 4 and Microsoft Clarity and the analytics cookies above are set; if you decline, neither tool is loaded, no analytics cookies are set and no analytics data is collected. Your choice and its date are stored in your browser's localStorage under the key altek_cookie_consent and are asked again after 12 months. You can change your choice at any time through the "Cookie preferences" link in the footer, which reopens the notice.
4A. Google Consent Mode v2
The Site uses Google Consent Mode v2. All four signals — ad_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization and analytics_storage — start as "denied". Accepting sets only analytics_storage to "granted"; the advertising signals always stay denied (the Site has no advertising, remarketing or cross-device features). Declining keeps every signal denied and no analytics cookies are set.
5. Withdrawing Consent
You may withdraw consent at any time by clearing site data in your browser or by contacting us.
