Explicit consent text

Last updated: 15 November 2026

Draft: this text is awaiting legal review and may change. The Turkish version prevails.

This text explains the two explicit consents you give separately on your profile page. You can withdraw either of them at any time on your profile page.

1. Transfer abroad (required to enter tournaments)

Omega Chess runs on service providers whose servers may be located abroad (USA and EU): Cloudflare (hosting, database, security), Resend (email), Google (only if you sign in with Google) and your browser's push service (only if you turned notifications on). With this consent you explicitly agree, under KVKK Article 9, to the transfer of the personal data listed in the privacy notice to these providers.

Because the site cannot run without these services, entering tournaments requires this consent. If you withdraw it you cannot register for tournaments; you can delete your account on your profile page.

2. Commercial electronic messages (optional)

If you tick "I give my explicit consent to receive emails about tournament announcements and promotions" on your profile page, you agree that Talut Yavuz may email you about new tournaments, events, sponsor campaigns and discounts. You can use Omega Chess and all tournaments without this consent.

• Data used: your full name, email address and language.
• Your consent is recorded in the Turkish Message Management System (İYS). You can withdraw it on your profile page, via the link in every email or through İYS.
• Transactional emails such as registration, reminder and result emails do not depend on this consent.

See the privacy notice for details.
