1. Parties and scope
This agreement is entered into between the person (the “User”) who uses the Yunus Angıner AI chat assistant (the “Assistant”) offered on the website at the domain name yunusanginer.com (the “Site”) and Yunus Angıner (“Yunus Angıner”), a natural person who is a citizen of the United States of America residing in the State of New Jersey, United States of America, and who offers the Assistant, upon the User’s giving of acceptance electronically at the start of the chat. Yunus Angıner is the data controller with respect to the personal data processed in connection with the Assistant.
The general rules relating to the Site and the educational platform are set forth in the Privacy Policy and KVKK Privacy Notice and the Terms of Use. This agreement governs the provisions specific to the Assistant; with respect to the use of the Assistant, this agreement shall take precedence.
2. Nature of the service
- The Assistant is software that automatically generates answers to the User’s questions based solely on the content published on the Site (pages, program information, video summaries, book information). The answers are not written, read in real time or approved by a human.
- The answers may be incomplete, inaccurate, taken out of context or outdated. Questions and answers in languages other than Turkish are processed by automatic translation and may contain translation errors.
- The Assistant is a free informational tool; it does not establish any consulting, educational, service or professional relationship between the User and Yunus Angıner.
- The Assistant does not answer questions concerning Yunus Angıner’s private life, family or personal information.
- The Assistant does not answer beyond the Site’s practical information (programs, lesson dates, fees, books, videos and the like) and the additional information provided by Yunus Angıner. It does not provide information, commentary or guidance on religions, beliefs or religious topics; such questions are declined.
3. Legal nature of the answers and disclaimer of opinion
- The answers generated by the Assistant are not the words, statement, opinion, belief, fatwa, undertaking or advice of Yunus Angıner and may not be attributed to him in any manner whatsoever.
- The content on the Site examines history, the history of religions, mythology, esotericism and similar subjects from an academic, historical and comparative perspective. Such content, and the Assistant’s answers based thereon, are not intended to denigrate, praise or promote any religious belief, sacred value, denomination or community, or to invite anyone to any belief.
- The Assistant’s answers do not constitute religious, legal, medical, psychological, financial or any other professional advice. The User is solely responsible for any decisions made and assessments formed in reliance on the answers.
- Any reference in an answer to Yunus Angıner’s books, lessons or videos is a summary detached from the context of the relevant work; the work itself shall be authoritative.
4. Data recorded
When you use the Assistant, the following data is recorded and retained:
- Identity: If you are not a member, the first and last name you enter at the start of the chat; if you are a logged-in member, the name, email address and membership ID in your membership record.
- Conversation content: Every question you write to the Assistant and every answer the Assistant provides, in full text.
- Connection information: Your IP address, the country information determined from your IP address, browser and device information, and the page on which and the language in which the question was asked.
- Acceptance record: The date and time on which you accepted this agreement, the version of the agreement accepted, and your IP address and browser information at the time of acceptance.
- Time information: The date and time of each question and answer.
Do not enter into the Assistant special categories of personal data such as your identification number, address, telephone number, health information or your own religious or political views, or any personal data belonging to others. If you do so, such information will also be recorded as part of the conversation content, and you shall bear the responsibility arising therefrom.
5. Purposes and legal bases

- Detecting and preventing misuse and insulting, threatening, defamatory and similar unlawful use; protecting the rights, personality rights, reputation and intellectual property of Yunus Angıner and the Site (necessity for the establishment, exercise or protection of a right, KVKK Art. 5(2)(e); legitimate interest, KVKK Art. 5(2)(f)).
- Use as evidence in potential legal disputes, complaints, investigations and requests from competent authorities, and fulfillment of legal obligations (KVKK Art. 5(2)(ç) and 5(2)(e)).

6. Use of records as evidence
The User represents that the User is aware of and accepts that the User’s conversations with the Assistant are retained together with the User’s first and last name, IP address, country information and time information, and that these records may be used as evidence in any dispute, complaint, investigation or lawsuit between the User and Yunus Angıner or arising from the User’s use of the Assistant. For this purpose, the records may be submitted to attorneys, experts, courts, law enforcement agencies and other competent authorities, limited to what is necessary.
The records are kept with time information in a manner that cannot be altered by the administration. The User accepts that these electronic records accurately reflect the content and timing of the conversations unless proven otherwise.
The recording of conversations and of the IP address is carried out after the User has been expressly informed before the chat and with the User’s consent; it does not constitute covert eavesdropping, covert recording or monitoring without the User’s knowledge. The User acknowledges that the User writes every message to the Assistant knowing that it will be recorded in this manner.
7. Rules of use and prohibitions
The User agrees not to do any of the following when using the Assistant:
- Write messages containing insults, profanity, threats, harassment, hate speech, discrimination, defamation or attacks on personality rights.
- Direct the Assistant for the purpose of generating provocative, defamatory or misleading content against Yunus Angıner or any religion, belief or community.
- Publish, share or use the Assistant’s answers, screenshots or portions of conversations, taken out of context, altered or cropped, as if they were the words or opinion of Yunus Angıner.
- Share unlawful content, enter the personal data of others, use another person’s name, or provide a false first and last name.
- Use the Assistant by means of automated tools, bots or bulk queries; scrape content, overload the system, or attempt to circumvent security measures or to trick the Assistant into operating outside its rules.
- Use the Assistant while under 18 years of age.
In the event of a violation of these rules, Yunus Angıner may, without prior notice, block the User’s access, use the relevant records as set forth in Section 6, and pursue any and all legal remedies.
8. Intellectual property and quotation

The User may read the answers for personal and non-commercial purposes. Publication, reproduction or commercial use of the answers is subject to written permission. In authorized quotations, the attribution “yunusanginer.com, Yunus Angıner AI (automatically generated answer)” must be stated in full as the source, and the answer must be used without alteration.
9. Disclaimer of warranties
The Assistant and its answers are provided “as is” and “as available.” Yunus Angıner makes no warranty of any kind, express or implied, as to the accuracy, completeness, timeliness or fitness for a particular purpose of the answers, or that the Assistant will operate uninterrupted or error-free. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, all implied warranties are excluded.
10. Limitation of liability
The Assistant is an informational tool provided free of charge. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Yunus Angıner shall not be held liable for any direct or indirect, incidental, special, punitive or consequential, pecuniary or non-pecuniary damages arising from the use of or inability to use the Assistant, the content of the answers, automatic translation errors or actions taken in reliance on the answers. In any event, Yunus Angıner’s aggregate liability in connection with the Assistant shall be limited to the amount paid by the User for the Assistant; since the Assistant is free of charge, this amount is zero.
These limitations do not affect liability for willful misconduct and gross negligence, which cannot be limited by law. No provision of this agreement is intended to restrict any rights of the User that cannot be waived under applicable law, including under the New Jersey Truth-in-Consumer Contract, Warranty and Notice Act, and no provision shall apply to the extent that it restricts such rights. Some countries or states do not permit the disclaimer of warranties or the limitation of liability; in such case, the relevant limitation shall apply to the maximum extent permitted by that law.
11. Indemnification
The User agrees to defend, hold harmless and indemnify Yunus Angıner from and against any and all claims, lawsuits, damages, penalties and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising from the User’s use in violation of this agreement, the content the User writes, the User’s sharing of answers taken out of context or altered, or the User’s infringement of the rights of third parties.
12. Modification of the service and blocking of access
Yunus Angıner may, at any time and without prior notice, modify, improve, restrict or entirely discontinue the Assistant, and may block any User’s access without stating a reason. Such events shall not give rise to any claim on the part of the User.
13. Service providers and cross-border transfer
- DigitalOcean: server and database on which the records are kept (United States of America).
- Cloudflare: network security and determination of country information from the IP address.
- MyMemory (Translated srl, Italy): automatic translation of questions written and answers provided in languages other than Turkish. Only the text of the questions and answers is sent to this service; your name, IP address and country information are not sent.

Database backups are kept for 30 days.
15. Your rights and requests

The procedure for submitting requests is described in the “Your rights and requests” section of the Privacy Policy. If you are not a member, you may log in free of charge with your Google account and submit a request through the My Account › Contact section. In the case of erasure requests, records that must be retained for the purpose set forth in Section 6 or that relate to an ongoing or foreseeable dispute shall continue to be retained to the extent permitted by applicable law.

You may withdraw your explicit consent at any time; in that case, you may not continue to use the Assistant. Withdrawal does not affect the retention of previous records for the purposes set forth in Sections 6 and 14.
17. Governing law, jurisdiction and limitation period

The User consents to the personal jurisdiction of and venue in these courts and waives any objection that these courts are an inconvenient forum.
