A data recovery engagement involves two distinct sets of data, and they are subject to different legal regimes.
a) Your identity and contact data. Name and surname, telephone number, e-mail address, company name and tax details where applicable, city, invoicing and payment records, our correspondence and call records with you, the telephone number and one-time code used to sign in to the portal, and transaction security data (IP address, time of action).
b) The data inside your device. The files held on the storage device you hand over for recovery. Those files may contain personal data belonging to you, your family, your employees or your customers — including special categories of personal data such as health data, criminal convictions or biometric data.
| Art. 5/2(c) — formation and performance of a contract | Identity, contact, device and transaction data; indispensable for the service to be provided. |
|---|---|
| Art. 5/2(ç) — legal obligation | Invoices, accounting entries and commercial books. |
| Art. 5/2(e) — establishment and protection of a right | Approval records, handover reports, defence in the event of a dispute. |
| Art. 5/2(f) — legitimate interest | Measuring service quality, transaction security logs. |
| Art. 5/1 and 6/2 — explicit consent | For special categories of personal data that may be present in the device content, only to the extent technically required by the recovery process. |
Your data is collected by partly automated means through the website request form, telephone, e-mail, WhatsApp and similar channels, the paper intake form completed at our laboratory, and courier consignment documents.
Your personal data is shared, in accordance with Article 8 of the Law and only to the extent necessary, with the following parties:
The files inside your device are not shared with any third party. Recovery is carried out in our own laboratory; no transfer abroad takes place. Should an operation make a supplier outside Türkiye unavoidable — for example where manufacturer-specific technical support is required — you will be informed in advance and your separate consent will be obtained.
| Recovered data and device image | 15 days after delivery; destroyed irreversibly at the end of that period |
|---|---|
| Case, quotation and approval records | 10 years from the end of the service relationship (limitation periods and Art. 82 of the Turkish Commercial Code) |
| Invoicing and accounting records | 10 years |
| Requests that did not result in a case | 3 years |
| Devices not collected | Retained for the period prescribed by law; the process is also notified to you in writing |
Under Article 11 of the Law you have the right to: learn whether your personal data is processed; request information if it has been processed; learn the purpose of processing and whether the data is used in line with that purpose; know the third parties to whom it is transferred, in Türkiye or abroad; request rectification where it is incomplete or inaccurate; request erasure or destruction under the conditions of Article 7 of the Law; request that such action be notified to the third parties to whom the data was transferred; object to an adverse outcome arising from analysis carried out solely by automated systems; and claim compensation where you suffer loss due to unlawful processing.
You may submit your requests in writing to Büyükdere Cad. Tevfik Erdönmez Paşa Sok. Emekli Subay Evleri Blok No:15 D:1, Esentepe · Şişli / İstanbul, with a secure electronic signature to tekniknokta@hs01.kep.tr, or from the e-mail address registered in our system to info@tekniknokta.com.tr. Your request will be concluded within 30 days at the latest. Where the action entails a cost, the fee in the Board’s tariff may be charged.
