Personal Data Protection and Privacy Policy

Website Privacy Agreement

This Gizlilik Politikası outlines the terms and conditions under which the information we obtain about you and the services you request through our website, including any emails you send to us, is used and protected. By visiting this website and requesting to benefit from the services we provide through it, you agree to the conditions stated in this Gizlilik Politikası.

I. Purpose of the Personal Data Protection and Processing Policy

 

As Gamateks Tekstil San. ve Tic. A.Ş., we have always treated the data received from employee candidates, customers, or potential clients with confidentiality, never sharing it with third parties. Protecting personal data is a fundamental policy of our company. Even before any legal regulations, our company and its affiliates prioritized the confidentiality of personal data and adopted it as a working principle, instructing employees accordingly. We fully commit to complying with all responsibilities imposed by the Personal Data Protection Law (KVKK). These principles also apply to our subsidiaries.

II. Scope and Amendment of the Personal Data Protection and Processing Policy

 

This Policy has been prepared by our Company in accordance with Law No. 6698 on the Protection of Personal Data (KVKK). The Law is now fully in effect. The data collected based on your consent or lawful grounds defined in the Law will be used to improve the quality of services we offer and enhance our service and quality policies. Some of this data may be anonymized and used for statistical purposes, falling outside the scope of the Law.

 

This Policy applies to data collected from customers, potential customers, employee candidates, employees, and the customers/employees of our business partners. Our company reserves the right to amend this Policy and our Regulation in line with the Law and enhanced data protection measures.

III. Key Principles in Processing Personal Data

  • Lawfulness and Fairness: Gamateks ensures that all collected or obtained data complies with legal and ethical standards. We provide necessary notifications and warnings to third parties (agents, partners, intermediaries) regarding data protection.
  • Accuracy and Currency: We prioritize keeping all data accurate and up-to-date.
  • Purpose Limitation: Data is processed only for specific, explicit, and legitimate purposes within the scope of the individual’s consent.
  • Data Minimization: Data is used only to the extent necessary for the intended purpose.
  • Retention Period: Personal data is retained as long as legally required, after which it is deleted, destroyed, or anonymized.

 

These principles apply regardless of the legal basis for processing.
