Privacy Policy

Effective date: October 9, 2026

This policy explains which personal data we process when you use the Starly mobile app and the starly.com.tr website ("Starly"), why we process it, and what your rights are.

Data controller

Data controller: Yasin Halit Karayağız (Centura), İstanbul, Türkiye. Contact: centuracomtr@gmail.com

Data we collect

We do not access your contacts, location, camera or gallery in the background; we only upload the images you choose. The app contains no advertising, analytics or third-party tracking libraries.

Why we process your data

Sharing with task owners

Some tasks are published on behalf of partners who run surveys, data collection or product tests. In that case only the output of that task (e.g. your survey answers, the photo you took, your test notes) may be shared with that partner. Your name, email, IBAN or contact details are never shared with task owners. Please make sure the images you upload do not contain other people's personal data (faces, licence plates, documents, etc.).

Who we share data with

We do not sell your data. We only transfer it to: our hosting provider, to run the service; the bank that sends your payout, with the name and IBAN needed for the transfer; and competent public authorities when legally required.

Retention

Account data is kept while your account is open. When you delete your account, your account details, proof images and balance are deleted. Records of completed payouts are kept for the period required by tax and commercial law, then deleted or anonymised. Support messages are kept for a reasonable period after the request is resolved.

Security

Connections are encrypted with HTTPS. Passwords are stored irreversibly and session tokens are stored hashed. Proof images cannot be accessed directly from the internet; only the authorised review team can see them.

Your rights

You may ask whether we process your data, request a copy, learn the purpose of processing and who it was shared with, and ask for incorrect data to be corrected or for your data to be deleted. You may object to decisions made solely by automated means and claim compensation for damage. If you live in the EU, your GDPR rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability and objection also apply. Send requests to centuracomtr@gmail.com or via starly.com.tr/support.php; we reply within 30 days.

Deleting your account

You can delete your account at any time in the app under Profile → Delete account. If you cannot access the app, use the form at starly.com.tr/support.php.

Age limit

Starly is not intended for anyone under 18. We delete accounts that we learn belong to someone under 18.

Changes

We may update this policy. We will announce material changes in the app; the current version is always on this page.
