Privacy Policy

Effective Date: 12.August.2025

Last Updated: 10.May.2026

This Privacy Policy explains how DevDocs10 (“DevDocs10,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, stores, shares, protects, and otherwise processes information when you access or use DevDocs10.com, including our articles, tutorials, code examples, static pages, search features, contact channels, tools, and related services (collectively, the “Service”).

By accessing or using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, you should not use the Service.

This Privacy Policy should be read together with our Terms of Service.

1. Who We Are

DevDocs10 is an educational coding documentation website that provides programming-related articles, tutorials, explanations, examples, references, and learning materials.

For purposes of applicable data protection laws, DevDocs10 may act as a “data controller” for the personal data we determine the purposes and means of processing. Where third-party service providers process personal data on our behalf, they may act as processors, service providers, independent controllers, or equivalent roles depending on the service and applicable law.

2. Scope of This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to information processed through the Service. It does not apply to third-party websites, tools, platforms, libraries, package registries, hosting providers, code repositories, documentation pages, advertisements, affiliate links, or other external services that may be linked from DevDocs10.

Third-party services have their own privacy policies, terms, security practices, and data processing rules. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites or services.

3. Important Summary

DevDocs10 is currently designed as a content-focused educational website. In general:

  • You can browse most content without creating an account.
  • We do not intentionally ask you to provide sensitive personal data.
  • We may process basic technical information needed to operate, secure, and improve the website.
  • Our hosting, CDN, security, and infrastructure providers may process technical data such as IP addresses, request logs, browser information, device information, and security signals.
  • We may use browser storage, such as localStorage, to remember interface preferences such as theme settings.
  • If you contact us by email, we process the information you choose to send us.
  • If we add newsletters, accounts, analytics, paid products, comments, or other features in the future, additional information may be collected as described in this Privacy Policy or in updated notices.

4. Information We May Collect

The information we collect depends on how you use the Service, what features are available at the time of your visit, and what information you choose to provide.

This technical information is generally used to operate the website, deliver content, maintain security, diagnose issues, prevent abuse, measure performance, and understand how the Service is accessed.

4.3 Local Storage, Cookies, and Similar Technologies

DevDocs10 may use cookies, localStorage, sessionStorage, browser cache, or similar technologies. These technologies may be used to:

  • Remember your theme preference, such as light mode or dark mode.
  • Remember interface preferences.
  • Support website functionality.
  • Improve loading performance.
  • Protect the Service against abuse or malicious traffic.
  • Measure website usage if analytics tools are used.

LocalStorage is stored in your browser and may remain until you clear it, reset your browser data, or until the website changes or removes the stored value. Cookies may expire according to their own settings or may remain until you delete them.

You can usually control cookies and local storage through your browser settings. Blocking or deleting these technologies may affect some website functionality.

4.4 Search and Site Interaction Data

DevDocs10 may provide a search feature or other interactive website features. Depending on the implementation, searches may run locally in your browser or may involve requests to the website or third-party infrastructure.

We may process search queries, page interactions, clicked results, visited pages, or related technical data to provide, secure, debug, and improve the Service. You should not enter sensitive personal data, confidential information, passwords, API keys, private source code, trade secrets, or other sensitive materials into any search, contact, feedback, or interactive feature.

4.5 Contact Email Data

If you contact us by email, we may process your email address, name, message content, attachments, metadata, and any other information included in your communication.

We use this information to read, respond to, manage, archive, and follow up on your communication. We may also use it to protect our rights, prevent abuse, keep business records, or comply with legal obligations.

4.6 Admin and Content Generation Data

DevDocs10 may use internal admin tools, automation, or AI-assisted workflows to create, edit, review, publish, or manage educational content.

These admin tools are intended for internal use. If any user-provided content, feedback, correction, prompt, request, or message is used in connection with content generation or editorial workflows, it may be processed by internal tools, hosting infrastructure, or third-party AI/service providers, depending on the workflow used at the time.

You should not send us confidential, sensitive, proprietary, or personal information that you do not want processed, reviewed, stored, or used to operate or improve the Service.

4.7 Future Account, Newsletter, Payment, or Community Data

DevDocs10 may introduce additional features in the future, such as user accounts, saved bookmarks, newsletters, email alerts, comments, downloads, paid content, premium tools, APIs, dashboards, communities, or subscriptions.

If these features are introduced, we may collect additional information, such as login credentials, account identifiers, subscription status, billing details, payment references, usage records, preferences, saved items, comments, profile information, and customer support records.

We may update this Privacy Policy or provide additional notices before or when such features become available.

5. Information We Do Not Intentionally Collect

DevDocs10 is not designed to intentionally collect sensitive personal data. You should not submit or disclose sensitive information through the Service.

Sensitive information may include, depending on applicable law:

  • Government identification numbers.
  • Financial account details.
  • Passwords, private keys, API keys, access tokens, or secret credentials.
  • Health information.
  • Biometric data.
  • Precise location data.
  • Information about children.
  • Racial or ethnic origin.
  • Political opinions.
  • Religious or philosophical beliefs.
  • Trade union membership.
  • Sex life or sexual orientation.
  • Criminal conviction or offense data.
  • Confidential source code, trade secrets, or proprietary business information.

If you voluntarily provide such information, you do so at your own risk. We may delete, ignore, or remove such information where appropriate.

6. How We Use Information

We may use information for the following purposes:

  • To provide, operate, maintain, and display the Service.
  • To load pages, articles, code examples, static assets, and search features.
  • To remember interface preferences such as theme settings.
  • To respond to emails, requests, questions, feedback, and support messages.
  • To improve, update, debug, and optimize the Service.
  • To understand how users access and use the website.
  • To monitor website performance and reliability.
  • To protect the Service against spam, scraping, bots, abuse, attacks, fraud, and unauthorized access.
  • To enforce our Terms of Service and other policies.
  • To protect our legal rights, users, systems, and property.
  • To comply with applicable laws, legal processes, regulatory requests, or court orders.
  • To manage internal operations, business records, security logs, and administrative workflows.
  • To provide newsletters, accounts, paid services, or other features if introduced in the future.

7. Legal Bases for Processing

Depending on where you are located and which laws apply, we may rely on one or more legal bases for processing personal data.

These may include:

  • Performance of a contract: when processing is necessary to provide the Service or any feature you request.
  • Legitimate interests: when processing is necessary for website operation, security, fraud prevention, service improvement, analytics, administration, or protection of legal rights, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights where applicable.
  • Consent: where consent is required for certain cookies, newsletters, marketing communications, or optional processing.
  • Legal obligation: when processing is necessary to comply with applicable laws, regulatory obligations, court orders, tax rules, accounting rules, or lawful requests.
  • Establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims: when processing is necessary to protect our rights or respond to disputes.

If Türkiye’s Personal Data Protection Law No. 6698 (“KVKK”) applies, processing may be carried out under the relevant legal grounds provided under KVKK, including explicit consent where required, processing expressly provided by law, processing necessary for the establishment or performance of a contract, compliance with legal obligations, establishment, exercise, or protection of a right, and legitimate interests where permitted by law.

If the EU or UK GDPR applies, processing may be based on legal grounds such as contract, legitimate interests, consent, legal obligation, and legal claims, as applicable.

8. Hosting, CDN, Security, and Infrastructure Providers

DevDocs10 may use third-party infrastructure providers to host, cache, secure, deliver, monitor, and operate the Service.

For example, DevDocs10 may use Cloudflare for hosting, content delivery, DNS, caching, security, performance, analytics, bot protection, and related infrastructure services. Cloudflare explains that the personal data it processes for customers depends on which Cloudflare services are used, and that metadata for core application services may be processed in data centers in the United States and Europe for a limited period.

Infrastructure providers may process technical information such as IP addresses, request metadata, device/browser information, security events, log data, performance metrics, and similar information as necessary to provide their services.

We do not control every technical detail of how third-party infrastructure providers process data. Their processing may also be governed by their own privacy policies, data processing terms, security practices, and legal obligations.

9. Analytics and Measurement

DevDocs10 may use analytics or measurement tools to understand website usage, page views, popular content, referral sources, search behavior, performance, and technical issues.

Analytics tools may process information such as visited pages, referral URLs, approximate location, device type, browser type, operating system, timestamps, interaction events, and technical identifiers.

If analytics tools that require consent are used, we may request consent where required by applicable law. If privacy-friendly analytics are used, they may operate without cross-site tracking or without directly identifying individual users, depending on the implementation.

DevDocs10 may change analytics providers, add analytics, remove analytics, or modify analytics settings over time.

10. Cookies and Browser Controls

You can usually control cookies through your browser settings. Depending on your browser, you may be able to block cookies, delete cookies, block third-party cookies, clear localStorage, clear cache, or configure privacy protections.

Blocking or deleting cookies and browser storage may affect site preferences, theme settings, performance, security checks, analytics accuracy, or other functionality.

Some browsers offer “Do Not Track” signals. Because there is no single consistent industry standard for responding to these signals, DevDocs10 may not respond to “Do Not Track” signals unless required by applicable law.

11. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information in the traditional sense. However, we may share or disclose information in the circumstances described below.

11.1 Service Providers

We may share information with service providers that help us operate, host, secure, maintain, analyze, improve, or support the Service. These may include hosting providers, CDN providers, analytics providers, security providers, email providers, AI tool providers, payment processors, domain registrars, development tools, and cloud infrastructure providers.

11.2 Legal and Compliance Reasons

We may disclose information if we believe it is necessary or appropriate to:

  • Comply with applicable laws or regulations.
  • Respond to lawful requests, court orders, subpoenas, or legal processes.
  • Cooperate with regulators, law enforcement, or government authorities.
  • Protect the rights, property, security, or safety of DevDocs10, users, or others.
  • Investigate or prevent fraud, abuse, attacks, unauthorized access, or policy violations.
  • Enforce our Terms of Service or other agreements.

11.3 Business Transfers

If DevDocs10 is involved in a merger, acquisition, sale of assets, financing, restructuring, bankruptcy, change of control, or similar transaction, information may be transferred, disclosed, or reviewed as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.

11.4 With Your Consent or Direction

We may share information where you have consented, requested, directed us to do so, or where sharing is necessary to provide a feature you choose to use.

11.5 Public or User-Submitted Content

If DevDocs10 introduces comments, profiles, community features, public submissions, or similar interactive areas, information you choose to publish may be visible to others. You should not post personal, confidential, sensitive, or proprietary information in public areas.

12. International Data Transfers

DevDocs10 may be operated from Türkiye, while our infrastructure providers, service providers, or technical systems may process information in other countries, including the United States, European Union member states, the United Kingdom, or other jurisdictions.

These countries may have data protection laws that differ from the laws of your country. Where required by applicable law, we will rely on appropriate legal mechanisms for international data transfers, such as consent, contractual safeguards, adequacy decisions, standard contractual clauses, processor agreements, or other lawful transfer mechanisms.

By using the Service, you understand that information may be processed outside your country of residence, subject to applicable law.

13. Data Retention

We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the reason for processing:

  • Technical logs may be kept for security, debugging, performance, and abuse prevention purposes.
  • Email communications may be kept for business records, support, legal protection, and follow-up purposes.
  • Analytics data may be kept according to the settings of the analytics provider or our internal needs.
  • Account data, if accounts are introduced, may be kept while the account is active and for a reasonable period afterward.
  • Billing and transaction records, if paid services are introduced, may be kept for tax, accounting, legal, and compliance purposes.
  • Security records may be kept as needed to investigate abuse, protect the Service, or comply with legal obligations.

We may delete, anonymize, aggregate, or de-identify information when it is no longer needed.

14. Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

These measures may include hosting security features, access controls, encryption in transit, administrative controls, limited access to internal tools, security monitoring, backups, and use of reputable service providers.

However, no website, server, database, email system, network, or online transmission is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security. You use the Service and transmit information at your own risk.

You are responsible for protecting your own devices, browsers, accounts, passwords, API keys, repositories, systems, and networks.

15. Your Rights

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights regarding your personal data. These rights may include:

  • The right to know whether we process your personal data.
  • The right to request access to your personal data.
  • The right to request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
  • The right to request deletion or erasure of personal data.
  • The right to object to certain processing.
  • The right to restrict certain processing.
  • The right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
  • The right to data portability where applicable.
  • The right to object to direct marketing where applicable.
  • The right to lodge a complaint with a competent data protection authority.

The European Commission describes GDPR rights as including rights of information, access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, and portability where applicable.

If KVKK applies, you may have rights under Article 11 of KVKK, including the right to learn whether your personal data is processed, request information about processing, learn the purpose of processing and whether data is used in accordance with that purpose, know third parties to whom data is transferred, request correction of incomplete or inaccurate data, request deletion or destruction under applicable conditions, object to certain results created by exclusively automated processing, and request compensation for damages caused by unlawful processing.

To exercise your rights, contact us at:

Email: [email protected]

We may need to verify your identity before responding to certain requests. We may refuse, limit, or charge for requests where permitted by law, including where requests are excessive, unfounded, repetitive, technically impractical, harmful to others, or legally restricted.

16. Consent and Withdrawal of Consent

Where we rely on consent to process personal data, you may withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

If you withdraw consent, some features may no longer be available to you.

17. Email Communications

If you email us, we may respond to you using the email address you provided.

If we introduce newsletters, product updates, educational emails, or marketing emails in the future, we may send such communications only where permitted by law. You will be able to unsubscribe from marketing emails by using the unsubscribe method included in the email or by contacting us.

We may still send non-marketing communications where necessary, such as legal notices, service messages, security alerts, account notices, transaction notices, or responses to your requests.

18. Payments and Billing

DevDocs10 may introduce paid products, subscriptions, downloads, premium tools, templates, reports, or services in the future.

If paid features are introduced, payments may be processed by third-party payment providers. We may receive limited payment-related information, such as transaction status, billing name, billing email, invoice information, subscription status, payment reference, and tax-related details.

We do not intend to store full payment card numbers on our own servers. Payment providers may process payment details according to their own terms, privacy policies, security standards, and legal obligations.

19. Children’s Privacy

The Service is not directed to children under the age of 13, or a higher minimum age where required by applicable law.

We do not knowingly collect personal data from children in violation of applicable law. If you believe that a child has provided personal data to us, please contact us and we will review the matter and take appropriate action.

20. Public Content and Search Engines

DevDocs10 is a public website. Public pages, articles, metadata, structured data, images, files, and other resources may be crawled, indexed, cached, archived, copied, summarized, displayed, or stored by search engines, browser caches, AI systems, internet archives, security tools, social platforms, and other third parties.

We may use technical controls such as robots.txt, meta tags, HTTP headers, access restrictions, or authentication, but we cannot guarantee that third parties will follow these controls or remove indexed or cached content immediately.

21. External Links

The Service may contain links to third-party websites, documentation, tools, libraries, frameworks, repositories, package managers, APIs, videos, courses, or other resources.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices, security, content, policies, or actions of third-party websites or services. You should review the privacy policies and terms of any third-party service before using it.

22. AI Tools and Automated Systems

DevDocs10 may use AI tools, automated systems, or software workflows to assist with drafting, editing, reviewing, formatting, organizing, debugging, translating, summarizing, or improving website content.

If information you provide is processed through such tools, it may be handled by third-party service providers according to their own terms, privacy policies, retention settings, and security measures.

You should not submit sensitive personal data, confidential information, private source code, trade secrets, passwords, API keys, access tokens, business secrets, or proprietary materials unless you are comfortable with them being processed for the relevant purpose.

23. Automated Decision-Making

DevDocs10 does not currently use personal data for automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects concerning users.

If this changes in the future, we will update this Privacy Policy or provide additional notice where required by applicable law.

24. Advertising, Affiliate Links, and Sponsorships

DevDocs10 may now or in the future include affiliate links, referral links, sponsorships, advertisements, promotional placements, or other commercial content.

Third-party advertising or affiliate partners may use cookies, tracking links, referral identifiers, conversion pixels, or similar technologies, subject to applicable law and their own privacy policies.

Where required, we may ask for consent before enabling certain advertising or tracking technologies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party advertisers, affiliate platforms, or sponsors.

25. Data Accuracy

We aim to keep personal data accurate and up to date where necessary for the purposes for which it is processed. You are responsible for ensuring that any information you provide to us is accurate, complete, and current.

If you believe information we hold about you is inaccurate, you may contact us to request correction, subject to applicable law.

26. Data Minimization

We aim to process only the information reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. However, because some technical information is automatically processed by hosting, CDN, security, analytics, browser, and infrastructure systems, we may not be able to prevent all technical processing while still providing the Service.

27. De-Identified and Aggregated Data

We may use aggregated, anonymized, or de-identified information for analytics, debugging, performance measurement, research, reporting, content planning, business planning, security, and service improvement.

Such information does not identify you directly. We may use and disclose aggregated, anonymized, or de-identified information without restriction where permitted by applicable law.

28. Regional Privacy Notices

Privacy laws vary by country and region. Depending on your location, additional rights or disclosures may apply. If required, we may provide supplemental privacy notices for specific jurisdictions or specific features.

28.1 Türkiye

If KVKK applies, your personal data may be processed in accordance with Law No. 6698 on the Protection of Personal Data and related secondary legislation. KVKK states that its purpose is to protect fundamental rights and freedoms, particularly privacy, in relation to personal data processing and to set obligations for persons processing such data.

You may contact us regarding your KVKK rights at:

Email: [email protected]

28.2 European Economic Area, United Kingdom, and Switzerland

If GDPR, UK GDPR, Swiss data protection law, or similar law applies, you may have rights to access, correct, erase, restrict, object to, or port your personal data. You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.

Where we rely on legitimate interests, we balance our interests against your rights and freedoms where required by law. The European Commission notes that legitimate interest can be a legal ground for processing, but organizations must inform individuals and ensure their rights and freedoms are not seriously impacted.

28.3 California and Other U.S. States

If privacy laws from California or other U.S. states apply, you may have additional rights regarding access, deletion, correction, portability, opt-out of certain sharing or targeted advertising, and non-discrimination for exercising privacy rights.

DevDocs10 does not currently intend to sell personal information in the traditional sense. If we engage in advertising, analytics, affiliate tracking, or other activities that are considered a “sale,” “sharing,” or “targeted advertising” under applicable law, we will provide notices and choices where required.

29. Complaints

If you have a privacy concern, please contact us first so we can try to resolve it.

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may also have the right to complain to a competent data protection authority, including the Turkish Personal Data Protection Authority, an EU/EEA supervisory authority, the UK Information Commissioner’s Office, or another relevant regulator.

30. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we update it, we may change the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page.

Changes may be made to reflect updates to the Service, legal requirements, technologies, business practices, service providers, analytics tools, security practices, or user rights.

Your continued use of the Service after a revised Privacy Policy becomes effective means that you acknowledge the updated Privacy Policy.
