KVKK, Kisisel Verileri Koruma Kanunu, or the "General Data Protection Regulation" (like the European GDPR) is a data protection law that was implemented in Turkey in 2016. The law is intended to give individuals more control over their personal data and to strengthen the protection of personal data in Turkey. One of the main goals of KVKK is to give individuals more control over their personal data. This includes the right to access their personal data, the right to have their personal data corrected or deleted, and the right to object to the processing of their personal data. The law also requires organizations to obtain explicit consent from individuals before collecting, using, or sharing their personal data.
There are a number of penalties outlined in the KVKK legislation from administrative fines of up to 1,000,000 Turkish Lira for ‘misdemeanors’, to potential prison sentences for those who falsely register or handle the data improperly.
A growing list of high-profile global companies have been fined for not taking necessary technical and organizational measures to ensure data security within scope of the law.
It is crucial to automate compliance checks as much as possible, as the process of checking for compliance within your environments can be arduous and costly, and any kind of manual checks are subject to human error.
