Privacy

Who is responsible. Serdar Arslan, at the address above, is responsible for the processing of personal data on this website. Write to giadaserdar@gmx.ch with any question or request about your data.

What this website does not do. It sets no cookies, uses no analytics or advertising trackers, has no forms and no user accounts, and loads no fonts, scripts or images from other servers. That is why there is no cookie banner.

Hosting. The website is delivered by Cloudflare Pages, a service of Cloudflare, Inc., San Francisco, USA. When you open a page, Cloudflare necessarily processes technical data such as your IP address, the time of the request, the page requested and information your browser sends about itself, in order to deliver the page and to protect the service against attacks. Cloudflare operates servers in many countries, including the United States, so this data may be processed outside Switzerland and the European Economic Area. Cloudflare describes its own processing in its privacy policy at cloudflare.com/privacypolicy. We do not receive visitor statistics that identify you.

Downloads. The free samples and the packing checklist are plain files. Downloading them requires no e-mail address and is not recorded by us.

E-mail. If you write to us, we receive your e-mail address and whatever you tell us, and we use it to answer you. Our mailbox is provided by GMX. We keep correspondence for as long as it is needed to deal with your request and delete it afterwards, unless the law requires us to keep it longer.

Links to other websites. Links to YouTube and to map services open those websites, which apply their own privacy policies. No data is sent to them until you follow a link.

Newsletter and shop. There is no newsletter and no shop on this website at present. Before either is added, this policy will be updated to name the providers involved and the data they process.

Your rights. You can ask whether we hold personal data about you, and ask us to correct or delete it. In Switzerland you can also contact the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (edoeb.admin.ch); if you live in the EU or the UK, you may contact your local data protection authority.

Cookies and tracking

None. If that ever changes, you will be asked first where the law requires it, and this section will say exactly what is used.

Purchase terms

Nothing can be bought on this website yet. Prices shown are planned prices in US dollars and may change. The complete purchase terms, including delivery, permitted use and refunds for digital downloads, will be published here before the first product goes on sale.

The free downloads are provided as they are, for your personal use.

Advertising and affiliate links

At present this website contains no advertising, no sponsored content and no affiliate links. If a film, an article or a guide ever contains a paid placement, a hosted stay or an affiliate link, it will be marked clearly at the place where it appears.

Copyright

© 2026 Serdar Arslan and Giada & Serdar. Texts, photographs, film stills, guides, journals and the checklist are our own work and are protected by copyright. All photographs on this website are frames from our own films. You may download the free files for your personal use and share links to this website. Please do not republish, resell or redistribute the files or substantial parts of them without our written permission.

Accuracy of travel information

Our guides and this website reflect our own experience and research at the date stated. Prices, opening times and entry rules change. Check official sources before you travel; you remain responsible for your own travel decisions, documents, health precautions and insurance.
