Data privacy now sits at the intersection of every commercial discussion: customer onboarding, vendor selection, financing diligence, cross-border product launches. Vircon Legal advises Turkish operating companies, multinational businesses with Turkish footprints, and venture-backed startups on the design and execution of KVKK and GDPR compliance programs — built for actual operational use, not for paper.
Our KVKK and GDPR practice covers:
- Compliance program design. End-to-end privacy program architecture: data mapping, lawful-basis analysis, vendor classification, training cadence, and incident response runbooks.
- Cross-border data flows. Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), Binding Corporate Rules (BCRs), and explicit-consent frameworks for Turkish data leaving the country — including post-Schrems II analysis for US destinations.
- Privacy notices and consent UX. Multi-layer privacy notices, granular cookie consent (KVKK + GDPR + CCPA stacking), and dark-pattern audits.
- Data Processing Agreements (DPAs). Vendor DPA review and negotiation, sub-processor regimes, and audit-rights mechanics — integrates with our SaaS & IT Contracts practice.
- Data Subject Rights handling. KVKK / GDPR access, deletion, portability, and objection request workflows with response-time tracking.
- Data breach response. 72-hour notification workflows, KVKK Board and DPA communications, customer notification templates, and post-incident remediation.
- DPO services and ongoing advisory. Outsourced Data Protection Officer function, internal training programs, and regulatory horizon scanning.
- AI and automated decision-making. DPIAs for AI-driven products, profiling notices, and automated decision-making rights — see AI & Algorithm Law.
For founders running their own first compliance review, our KVKK + GDPR Compliance Checklist walks through the critical decision points step by step. For ongoing operations, we coordinate with our KVKK Audit service.
