- Disclaimers
General Information Only: The content presented on tuncaybesikci.com is provided for general informational purposes regarding our services, case studies, and expertise. It is not professional advice. While Tuncay Beşikçi is an expert in digital forensics and related fields, the materials on this Website (such as blog posts or articles) should not be taken as specific advice for your situation. Before making decisions or taking actions based on any information on this site, you should consider consulting directly for personalized advice or seek other professional guidance relevant to your circumstances.
“As Is” Basis: The Website and all content on it are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without any warranties of any kind, either express or implied. We do not warrant or represent that the content on the site is accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free. Despite our efforts to provide useful and correct information, there may occasionally be errors, typos, or inaccuracies, or the information may be out of date. We reserve the right to correct any errors or omissions and to update information at any time without prior notice.
No Warranty of Availability: We cannot guarantee that the Website will be available at all times or that access will be uninterrupted or secure. Maintenance, updates, or technical issues may occasionally result in downtime. We will endeavor to minimize disruptions, but we make no guarantees (express or implied) as to the continuous availability of the site or any services.
No Warranty of Security: While we implement reasonable security measures (see our Privacy Policy) to protect the Website and its users, the internet is not a completely secure environment. We cannot warrant that the site is free of viruses, malware, or other harmful components, or that any defects or vulnerabilities will be fixed immediately. You are responsible for using your own virus protection software and taking precautions to ensure that any content you obtain from the site is free of harmful code.
Implied Warranties: To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including (but not limited to) implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the site will meet your expectations or requirements.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the above exclusions may not apply to you. In such cases, any legally required warranties shall be limited to the shortest period and minimum scope permitted by law.
- Limitation of Liability
To the extent permitted under applicable law, Tuncay Beşikçi and his affiliates, employees, or agents shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages (including, without limitation, those resulting from lost profits, lost data, business interruption, or any other commercial damages or losses) arising out of or in connection with your use of or inability to use the Website or its content, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
This limitation of liability applies to any damages or losses caused by (but not limited to):
- Your reliance on any information or materials on the site,

We shall not be liable for any obligations or liabilities that may arise from those interactions.
Because some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, in such jurisdictions our liability shall be limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

These Terms of Service, and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with these Terms or your use of the Website, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Turkey, without regard to its conflict of law principles.

If you access the Website from a location outside of Turkey, you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws, if and to the extent local laws are applicable. We make no representations that the content of this site is appropriate or available for use in other locations.
- Severability
If any provision or part of a provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions. The remaining sections of the Terms will continue to be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. In such an event, the invalid or unenforceable provision will be modified so as to best accomplish the objectives of the original provision, within the limits of applicable law.
- No Waiver
Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Any waiver of any provision of the Terms will be effective only if in writing and signed by us.

We reserve the right, without notice and in our sole discretion, to terminate or suspend your access to the Website (in whole or in part) for any reason, including without limitation, any violation of these Terms.
