KVKK
Turkey's Personal Data Protection Law No. 6698, the main law that governs the processing of personal data in Turkey.
KVKK is the Turkish abbreviation for the Personal Data Protection Law No. 6698. The law sets out for which purposes and on which legal grounds personal data may be processed, how it is stored, to whom it may be transferred and which rights people have. The organisation that processes the data is the data controller and must follow these rules.
At first sight, digital signage looks like nothing more than showing announcements. But the names and e-mail addresses of panel users, activity logs, IP addresses and, in some sectors, patient or guest information shown on screen are personal data too. In which country and on whose server this data is kept is an important question under KVKK.
MIA and KVKK
MIA runs on your own server; your data stays with you and MIA sends no data out. There is no default admin password, passwords are stored hashed with scrypt and the audit log records IP addresses. This setup makes it easier to build a KVKK-friendly installation, while your legal obligations are something to assess with your own lawyer. See the security and privacy page for details.
