Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Murat Akkemik ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you use our website, File Consolidator, available at:
https://fileconsolidator.apptechno.net/
1. Who We Are
Website owner: Murat Akkemik
Contact email: info@akkemik.net
Country: Sweden
2. Local Processing of Files
This means that, as part of the core file processing functionality of the Website:
- your files remain on your local device;
- file contents are processed locally within your browser environment;
- we do not receive, access, store, or review the contents of your files; and
- we do not maintain server-side storage of files or processed output generated through the Website's local processing tools.
However, like most websites, we and our service providers may still process limited technical data such as IP address, browser information, consent preferences, and advertising-related data where applicable.
3. Information We Collect
We may collect the following categories of information:
- Usage data, such as browser type, device type, pages visited, time spent on the site, referring pages, and general interaction data.
- Technical data, such as IP address, browser language, operating system, and basic diagnostic information.
- Advertising and consent data, including preferences related to cookies, consent choices, and ad-related identifiers where permitted.
- Communications data, if you contact us directly by email.
We do not collect the contents of files processed locally through the Website's browser-based tools.
4. How We Use Your Information
- provide and maintain the website and its features;
- improve website performance, usability, and security;
- understand how visitors use the website;
- display advertising, including non-personalized or personalized ads where legally permitted;
- comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms.
5. Legal Bases for Processing (EEA/UK Users)
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom, we process personal data only where we have an appropriate legal basis, including:
- Consent — for example, where required for advertising cookies and personalized ads;
- Legitimate interests — such as website security, fraud prevention, and basic analytics where allowed by law;
- Legal obligation — where processing is necessary to comply with applicable law.
6. Advertising
We may use third-party advertising partners, including Google AdSense, to display ads on this website.
These partners may use cookies, local storage, or similar technologies to serve ads, limit repetitive ads, measure ad performance, and where permitted and based on user consent, personalize advertising.
If required by applicable law, we will request your consent before placing non-essential cookies or using personal data for ad personalization.
7. Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies for essential website functions and, where permitted, for analytics and advertising. Please see our Cookie Policy for more details.
8. Data Sharing
We may share limited data with service providers and partners that help us operate the website, such as hosting or infrastructure providers, analytics providers, advertising partners, and legal or regulatory authorities when required by law.
We do not share user file contents with third parties because the Website's core file processing functionality is performed locally in the browser and not on our servers.
We do not sell your personal data in the ordinary sense of directly exchanging your personal information for money.
9. International Data Transfers
Some of our service providers or advertising partners may process data outside your country of residence. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards for such transfers in accordance with applicable data protection law.
10. Data Retention
We keep personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.
Because files processed through the Website are handled locally on the user's device, we do not retain uploaded or processed user files on our servers.
11. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights regarding your personal data, including the right to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability, objection to certain processing, and withdrawal of consent where processing is based on consent.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at: info@akkemik.net
12. Children's Privacy
This website is not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children.
13. Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information against unauthorized access, misuse, alteration, or loss. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.
14. Third-Party Websites
This website may contain links to third-party websites or services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those third parties.
15. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any updates will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
