Acceptable Use Policy

The purpose of this Policy is to set out, clearly and intelligibly, the acceptable use principles binding on all users of the Omnilegal service, the conduct that is prohibited, the notification procedure applicable in the event of a breach, and the sanctions that may follow. The Policy applies to every natural or legal person who accesses the service, to the subscribing attorney, to the subscribing law firm, and to every end user the subscriber authorises.

This Policy is construed together with, and as supplementary to, the Subscription Agreement. In the event of a conflict between this Policy and the Subscription Agreement, the provisions of the Subscription Agreement prevail in respect of the matter concerned; nevertheless, this Policy governs as regards the scope of prohibited uses and the application of sanctions.

The User is deemed to have accepted this Policy by accessing and using the service (acceptance by use) and by reference through the Subscription Agreement. Acceptance of this Policy does not require any separate signature or ticking of a consent box at the checkout step; access to and use of the service suffice for the Policy to be binding.

Topluyıldız Danışmanlık A.Ş. reserves the right to update this Policy in accordance with the amendment procedure set out in the Subscription Agreement. The current text takes effect from the date on which it is published at omnipotentlegal.ai and notified to the User by reasonable means.

The principal terms used in this Policy carry the meanings set out below. For terms not defined here, the definitions in the Subscription Agreement and, in matters of data processing, in the Data Processing Agreement (Veri İşleme Sözleşmesi) apply.

Service: all software, interfaces, content and functions connected with the Omnilegal (Omnipotent Legal) legal artificial-intelligence operating system. User: every natural or legal person who accesses and uses the service, the subscribing attorney, the subscribing law firm, and the end users they authorise. Output: the text, drafts, summaries, citations or other results produced by the service in response to the User's inputs.

Client Confidence (Müvekkil Sırrı): any confidential information learned by the User in the course of practising as an attorney, comprising the facts, documents and information relating to a client, case or matter, and falling within the scope of the duty of professional secrecy protected by article 36 of the Attorneys Act no. 1136. Client Confidence covers information learned in the course of professional practice, irrespective of whether it is expressly marked as confidential.

The User undertakes to use the service only for purposes consistent with the law, public morality, the principle of good faith, public order, professional rules and the rights of third parties. Legitimate use of the service means using it as an assistive tool that supports, but does not replace, the legal judgment of the attorney.

When using the service, the User is obliged to comply with the applicable Turkish legislation, with any foreign law applicable to the User, and with the rules of the bar association and professional body to which the User belongs. The outputs produced by the service do not relieve the User of ultimate responsibility for the relevant facts and the legal assessment.

The User is responsible for all operations carried out through the User's account, access credentials and authorised end users. It is the User's obligation to maintain the confidentiality of access credentials and to prevent unauthorised use.

The User accepts and undertakes to refrain from the conduct listed below. This enumeration is illustrative and not exhaustive; similar conduct contrary to the law or to the spirit of this Policy is likewise prohibited.

(a) Producing, uploading to the service, or disseminating through the service any content that is unlawful, misleading, fraudulent, defamatory or insulting, or that infringes the intellectual, industrial, personality or other rights of third parties. (b) Introducing, transmitting or executing within the service any malicious software, virus, trojan, worm, or any code or component intended to impair the operation of the service or of third-party systems.

(c) Attempting to overcome, circumvent or disable the security measures of the service; obtaining or attempting to obtain unauthorised access; abusing the service through automated means; or placing an excessive load on the system through disproportionate querying, scraping or similar methods so as to jeopardise the continuity of the service. (d) Attempting to bypass, disable or render ineffective the underlying artificial-intelligence model or the attorney sign-off gate grounded in article 36 of the Attorneys Act no. 1136 (the m.36 guarantee that the final reading, decision and signature rest with the attorney).

(e) Presenting, or conveying to third parties, the output produced by the service as a final legal opinion, advice or counsel without the supervision, verification and approval of an attorney. (f) Uploading to, or processing within, the service the personal data of third parties in the absence of the explicit consent of the data subject or another lawful ground for processing.

(g) Using the service in a manner that breaches the duty of professional secrecy under article 36 of the Attorneys Act no. 1136; accessing information amounting to Client Confidence without authority, disclosing or sharing such information with third parties without authority, or accessing or uploading to the service confidential client or matter data in the absence of the authority of the client or the matter and a lawful ground. The User accepts and undertakes that it will under no circumstances use the service for the purpose of circumventing the duty of professional secrecy.

(h) Reverse engineering the service, its software or the underlying model, attempting to access its source code, copying it, or creating derivative works; reselling, leasing, sublicensing the service without authorisation, or offering it to third parties on a white-label basis. (i) Using the service, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of developing a competing product, model or service, or obtaining data for that purpose.

The service is designed, structurally, so as not to stand in for the attorney's legal judgment. The Citation Gate verifies every reference back to its source and flags for verification what cannot be verified rather than fabricating it; the m.36 attorney sign-off, in every case, leaves the final reading, decision and signature with the human attorney.

The User undertakes to make no attempt to deliberately disable or mislead these verification and approval mechanisms, or to present output in a manner that conceals the fact that it has not been verified. Conveying to third parties an output flagged for verification as though it were verified constitutes a material breach of this Policy.

The User undertakes not to attempt to circumvent the personal-data masking mechanism or to render ineffective the security logic that halts the flow where masking fails.

The User is personally responsible for the User's own obligations under the Personal Data Protection Law no. 6698 (KVKK) and the relevant secondary legislation in respect of the personal data the User uploads to or processes through the service. These obligations include satisfying the conditions for lawful processing, fulfilling the duty to inform, obtaining explicit consent where required, and complying with the rules on cross-border transfer.

In respect of the data of data subjects located in the European Union, the User is also bound by the User's obligations under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Topluyıldız Danışmanlık A.Ş. provides technical and administrative measures within the framework of the Subscription Agreement and the Data Processing Agreement (Veri İşleme Sözleşmesi) concluded between the parties; however, securing the legal basis for the processing remains the responsibility of the User. The allocation of roles, rights and obligations as between data controller and data processor is governed by the provisions of the Data Processing Agreement.

Where the User is an attorney, the User is bound by the duty of professional secrecy under the Attorneys Act no. 1136 and by the professional rules of the bar association to which the User belongs; otherwise, the User is bound by the professional and legal obligations applicable to the User. Use of the service relieves the User of none of these obligations.

Where the User becomes aware that this Policy has been breached or that the service is being used for a prohibited purpose, the User is obliged to report the matter without delay to mtopluyildiz@gmail.com or to the other contact channels notified by Topluyıldız Danışmanlık A.Ş.

Topluyıldız Danışmanlık A.Ş. assesses the breach reports it receives within a reasonable time; it may request further information where necessary and apply such measures as it deems appropriate. The identity of the person making a breach report is kept confidential unless disclosure is legally required.

In respect of content available on the internet that constitutes an infringement of rights, the rights relating to the notice-and-takedown mechanism under Law no. 5651 are reserved; notifications within this framework may also be sent through the same contact channels.

Where Topluyıldız Danışmanlık A.Ş. establishes that this Policy has been breached, it may, in proportion to the nature and gravity of the breach, apply one or more of the following sanctions: (a) issuing a written warning and granting a reasonable period for the breach to be remedied; (b) suspending access to the relevant content, feature or account, in whole or in part and on a temporary basis; (c) terminating the Subscription Agreement for just cause.

In the case of breaches that seriously and imminently threaten the security or integrity of the service or the rights of third parties, Topluyıldız Danışmanlık A.Ş. may suspend access immediately and without prior warning. In such a case, the User is informed of the situation as soon as possible.

The application of a sanction under this Policy does not prevent Topluyıldız Danışmanlık A.Ş. from claiming compensation for the loss it has suffered or from exercising its other legal and contractual rights. A failure to apply, or a delay in applying, a sanction does not amount to a waiver of the rights concerned. The sanctions provided for in this clause and the rights and sanctions provided for in the Subscription Agreement are complementary to one another.

If any provision of this Policy is held, in whole or in part, to be invalid, void or unenforceable by a competent authority, this does not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of the Policy. The provision held invalid is deemed to be replaced by a valid provision that comes closest to the true intention of the parties and to the purpose of the provision concerned.

A failure by Topluyıldız Danışmanlık A.Ş. to exercise, or a delay in exercising, any right arising under this Policy does not amount to a waiver of that or any other right. The single or partial exercise of any right does not preclude the subsequent exercise of the same right or of any other right.

This Policy is read and applied together with the Subscription Agreement and, in matters of data processing, the Data Processing Agreement (Veri İşleme Sözleşmesi). The provisions of the Subscription Agreement govern matters such as the nature of the service, pricing, intellectual property, confidentiality, limitation of liability, governing law and dispute resolution.

The provisions of the Turkish Code of Obligations on standard terms, together with its mandatory rules on the invalidity of an exclusion of liability in cases of gross fault, are reserved. This Policy rests on the principle that, given the artificial-intelligence-assisted nature of the service, the final legal assessment of any output at all times remains with the attorney.

Questions, notifications and requests relating to this Policy may be addressed to mtopluyildiz@gmail.com or sent via Sinanpaşa Mahallesi, Süleyman Seba Caddesi, No: 6 İç Kapı No: 4, Beşiktaş / İstanbul and the registered electronic notification address (UETS) 25878-54156-69813.
