What this website does not do

Hosting
The website is a static site hosted on GitHub Pages by GitHub, Inc. (United States). When you open a page, GitHub processes technical data such as your IP address, the requested page, date and time, and your browser's user agent to deliver the page and keep the service secure. According to GitHub, visitors' IP addresses are logged and stored for security purposes (GitHub Pages: data collection). We do not receive these logs. GitHub processes them under its own privacy statement.
Legal basis: our legitimate interest in presenting our software securely (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
Email enquiries
If you write to us, we process the data you send: typically your name, email address, organisation, role and the content of your message, plus anything you attach.
- Purpose: answering your enquiry, scoping a possible pilot, and preparing or performing an agreement.
- Legal basis: steps taken at your request before entering into a contract, and performing that contract (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR). For general business communication, our legitimate interest in responding (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
- Please do not send confidential datasets, credentials, API keys, private keys or passwords by email.
- Email provider: our mailbox is operated by an email service provider, which processes messages on our behalf.
Partner applications
If you apply to the WATAM Intelligence Partner Program through the form in our application, we process what you enter: your name, email address, country, profile, languages, an optional LinkedIn or website address, your description of your experience and target market, your answer on commission-only work and any conflicts of interest. We also keep the time of your consent and a keyed hash of your IP address, used only to limit abuse of the form; the IP address itself is not stored.
- Purpose: assessing your application and, if it is accepted, preparing the partner agreement.
- Legal basis: steps taken at your request before entering into a contract (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR) and your consent, which you give on the form and can withdraw at any time by writing to us.
- Notifications: our notice of a new application contains only the profile you chose, never your name, email address or free text.
- Retention: applications that are rejected, or that we have not acted on, are deleted automatically 180 days after rejection or receipt. You can ask us to delete your application earlier. Accepted applications become part of the partner relationship and follow the retention described below.
How long we keep it
Enquiry emails are kept for up to two years after our last contact, unless a contract follows. In that case, correspondence is kept as long as the contract requires and for the retention periods set by commercial and tax law.
Who receives it
We do not sell or rent personal data. Data is only processed by the providers named above, or disclosed where we are legally required to.
International transfers
GitHub and our email provider may process data outside Türkiye and the European Economic Area. Such transfers are subject to the GDPR and to Article 9 of Law No. 6698; you can ask us which safeguard a transfer relies on.
Your rights
You have the right to:
- access your data, and have it rectified or erased;
- restrict its processing;
- receive it in a portable format;
- object to processing based on legitimate interests (Art. 15–21 GDPR).
To exercise them, write to admin@wearetheartmakers.com or to the postal address above. You may also lodge a complaint with a data protection authority, in particular in the EU member state where you live or work.
Where Turkish Law No. 6698 on the Protection of Personal Data (KVKK) applies, you also have the rights set out in its Article 11 and may complain to the Personal Data Protection Board (KVKK Kurulu). Contact us as described above.
