\"KVKK<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

1- Compliance with the Fundamental Principles of the Personal Data Protection Law (KVKK), Lawfulness, and Rules of Honesty.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The first fundamental principle of the KVKK (Turkish Personal Data Protection Law) is the principle of compliance with the law and the rule of good faith. This principle means that the processing of personal data must comply with the principles established by laws and other legal regulations. According to the principle of good faith, the data controller must consider the interests and reasonable expectations of the data subjects while pursuing its data processing objectives. It must act in a way that prevents the occurrence of consequences that the data subject did not expect and should not have expected. Furthermore, according to this principle, the data processing activity must be transparent to the data subject, and the data controller must comply with its obligations to inform and warn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2- Being accurate and up-to-date when necessary.<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This principle, which emphasizes the importance of the accuracy and timeliness of personal data, is consistent with the right of the data subject to request correction of data as stipulated in the Law. Maintaining personal data accurately and up-to-date is not only in the interest of the data controller but also necessary for the protection of the fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject. The active duty of care to ensure that personal data is accurate and, where necessary, up-to-date applies if the data controller derives a benefit from this data concerning the data subject (e.g., credit transactions). Otherwise, the data controller must always keep open channels to ensure that the data subject's information is accurate and up-to-date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3- Processing for Specific, Explicit and Legitimate Purposes<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
