Protection of Personal Data
In the modern era, due to technological developments, personal data belonging to individuals is processed across numerous platforms, giving rise to various legal and administrative risks. In order to prevent these risks, personal data has been placed under legal protection through the Law No. 6698 on the Protection of Personal Data (KVKK).
