Is it possible to store or transfer data abroad?

It is possible, but cross-border data transfer is subject to special rules under both the KVKK and GDPR. We design the legal basis for the transfer, the necessary safeguards, and the contractual infrastructure together; and we manage transfers along the Türkiye–DACH corridor in particular in a compliant manner.
