Projects for Compliance with Personal Data Protection Legislation

With the entry into force of the Law on the Protection of Personal Data No. 6098 (“KVKK”), a new era has been entered in the processing of personal data in Turkey. While the KVKK provides some rights for the personal data owners, which it defines as the data subject, against the real and legal persons who process the personal data it defines as the data controller, it also regulates some obligations for the data controllers. In case of violation of KVKK and related legislation, your company has the risk of facing very high administrative fines. For this reason, as SİLEGAL Law Firm, we stand by our clients with the KVKK compliance projects we have carried out in order to minimize the possible risks related to violations of the KVKK legislation and administrative fines that may be applied.

We can list the services we offer within the scope of our KVKK compliance projects as follows:

• Providing in-company KVKK awareness trainings to company officials, employees and all relevant departments (human resources, management, law, IT, marketing, etc.) involved in personal data processing activities,
• Analyzing and determining your company's KVKK compliance status and obligations, preparing a KVKK compliance report and drawing a roadmap for KVKK compliance work,
• Preparation of company policies (personal data processing policy, personal data retention and destruction policy, etc.), contracts and other relevant KVKK texts (information text, consent text, etc.) within the scope of KVKK compliance work,
• Preparation of confidentiality agreements regarding data transfer with other data controllers in legal proceedings to which your company is a party,
