Privacy Policy
Who we are
This website is run by [legal company name], registered in [country] under number [number], at [registered address] ("Dent & Smile Co.", "we"). We are the controller of the personal data described here. Contact: [privacy email].
What we collect
- Guide requests: your first name, email address and, if you choose, the treatment you're interested in.
- Messages: your name, email, the region you're writing from and what you write to us.
- Website use: essential technical data needed to run the site and, only if you agree, analytics data about which pages are visited.
Please don't send us medical records, X-rays or health details through the website. We don't ask for them, and our forms aren't designed to hold them.
Why we use it, and on what basis
- To send the Private Guide and occasional follow-up emails: your consent, which you can withdraw at any time with the unsubscribe link.
- To reply to your messages: our legitimate interest in answering questions you send us.
- To understand and improve the site: your consent to analytics cookies.
- To meet legal obligations, such as keeping records we are required to keep.
Who we share it with
We never sell your data, and we don't share it with clinics. We use a small number of service providers to run the site and send email, such as [hosting provider] and [email service provider]. They process data only on our instructions. Some may store data outside your country; where they do, we use recognised safeguards such as standard contractual clauses.
How long we keep it
Guide subscribers: until you unsubscribe. Messages: up to [24] months after our last exchange, then deleted. Analytics: [14] months.
Your rights
You can ask to see, correct, delete or export your data, object to or restrict how we use it, and withdraw consent at any time. Write to [privacy email]. If you are in the UK or EU, you can also complain to your data protection authority (in the UK, the Information Commissioner's Office). If you are in Türkiye, the Personal Data Protection Law (KVKK) gives you similar rights. Residents of some U.S. states have additional rights under their state's privacy laws, and can use the same contact.
Children
This site is intended for adults. We don't knowingly collect data from anyone under 18.
Terms of Use
What this site is
Dent & Smile Co. publishes general information about dental treatment in Istanbul. We are not a dental clinic, a medical provider or a licensed health tourism agency. We don't sell treatment, travel or packages, and we don't make bookings on your behalf.
Your decisions are yours
Any decision about treatment, a clinic or travel is made by you, with the clinic and dentist you choose. Your agreement for treatment is with that clinic, not with us.
Accuracy
We work to keep information accurate and dated, but rules, prices and practices change. Always confirm important details, such as entry requirements, with official sources and your clinic before you act.
Links to other sites
We link to official and third-party websites for your convenience. We don't control them and aren't responsible for their content.
Our content
The text, design and guides on this site belong to Dent & Smile Co. You're welcome to share links and use the checklists for your own planning; please don't republish them without permission.
Liability
To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for decisions made on the basis of general information on this site, or for treatment provided by any clinic. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under consumer law that cannot be limited.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of [jurisdiction]. Questions: [contact email].
Medical Disclaimer
Everything on this website, including the Private Guide, is general information for educational purposes. It is not medical or dental advice, diagnosis or treatment, and it is not a substitute for an examination by a qualified dentist.
Only a dentist who has examined you, with appropriate records such as X-rays, can say which treatment is right for you. Descriptions of treatments, timelines and risks are typical examples; your own case may differ.
We do not recommend, endorse or guarantee any clinic, dentist, product or outcome. Results of dental treatment vary from person to person.
If you have pain, swelling, bleeding or a fever after treatment, contact a dentist or doctor promptly, or your local emergency services.
