3.2. Users may benefit from the Services without registering as a member, or they may also become members by clicking on the "Sign Up" button on the Platform and filling out the required information on the screen that opens. To become a member, the User must share their personal information and set a password. Membership is completed by entering the code from the SMS sent to the User's phone into the application form and by approving the Terms of Use, Privacy Policy and Personal Data Text, and other approval buttons by the User electronically.

3.3. Clinics publish information such as Clinic name and address, offered Clinic Services, and resident dentists by registering them on the Platform for access by other Users. Individual Users can view Clinics by filtering by time and place using the search engine on the Platform and access the information published by Clinics under this provision. Individual Users can contact the Clinic through the Platform to make an appointment for receiving Clinic Services they find suitable after the search results. Diştedavim does not have the discretion to determine the scope and conditions of Clinic Services, appointment dates and times, appointment and treatment fees, and only provides technical support for Clinics to publish this information and for Individual Users to contact Clinics at their discretion by viewing this information.

3.4. An Individual User can have online consultations with dentists working at the Clinic selected through the Platform. Online consultations with the Clinic are only advisory and do not constitute diagnosis, examination, or treatment.

Furthermore, Diştedavim has no obligation or ability to monitor the content of the online consultation or intervene in the activities of Clinics. Diştedavim reserves the right of recourse in this regard.
