The Personal Data Protection Law (KVKK) comprehensively regulates companies' data processing activities. The obligations brought by the law include creating data inventory, disclosure obligation, obtaining explicit consent, taking data security measures, reporting data breaches, and registering with the Data Controllers Registry. Non-compliance with KVKK can result in serious sanctions including administrative fines and imprisonment. Companies need to regularly conduct internal audits and provide employee training to ensure KVKK compliance.
