1. Who We Are

This is a personal website (https://oguzdoma.com) created and managed by Oguz Orkun Doma. The site is designed solely to showcase professional, academic, and creative work.

We do not allow user accounts, comments, form submissions, or e-commerce.

 

2. Your Data

This site uses HTTPS and is hosted in a secure EU-based data center. No sensitive or personal data from visitors is collected or stored directly.

There are:

  • No contact forms
  • No login or registration
  • No comments or forums
  • No newsletters or marketing tools

Therefore, no visitor-related personal data (IP address, user agent, etc.) is collected or retained.

 

3. Third-Party Services

The following services are used to enhance the functionality and performance of this site:

3.1. Visitor Analytics

We use Jetpack Stats by Automattic –the owner company of WordPress.com– for visitor analytics, which may log anonymized information such as:

  • Page views and referrers
  • IP-based location (approximate)
  • Device and browser type

These logs do not contain personally identifiable information.

3.2. Embedded Content from Other Websites

Pages on this site may include embedded content (e.g., YouTube videos) or load external resources (e.g., Google Fonts). These behave the exact same way as if you have visited the original source (e.g., YouTube). These websites may collect your data, use cookies, or track interactions if you are logged in to that third-party service.

3.3. Security Tools

A security plugin called WordFence is used to ensure the site’s security. WordFence may process visitor IP addresses, access times, visited URLs, and browser information to defend against suspicious activity, known attack patterns, and other potential threats to the website and its visitors. This data is processed solely for the purposes of threat detection and site security.

WordFence is provided by Defiant Inc., a U.S.-based company, and may use servers located outside the European Union. In such cases, standard contractual clauses for international data transfers apply.

4. Cookies

Third-party services (e.g. YouTube, Jetpack) may set cookies when you view embedded content or interact with certain features. For full control, it is advised to manage your cookie preferences in your browser settings.

 

5. GDPR/UK GDPR Notes

This is a purely informational site.

No personal data is collected, processed, or stored directly.

All third-party services used are GDPR-compliant or covered by standard contractual clauses for international transfers.
