PithSafe may use service providers located abroad or using infrastructure located abroad for email, hosting, security, software, analytics or communication services.

Therefore, some information may be processed or stored on systems located outside Türkiye depending on the technical nature of the service. PithSafe considers security, privacy and data protection standards when selecting such providers.

These measures may include:

• Firewall and basic network security controls
• Logging and monitoring
• Protection against unauthorized access
• Data minimization
• Backup and business continuity measures

However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage can guarantee absolute security. While PithSafe applies reasonable security measures, users should also maintain the security of their own devices and accounts.

PithSafe retains personal data only for as long as necessary.

Retention periods are determined by considering:

• The purpose of processing
• Whether the communication or service relationship continues
• Legal retention obligations
• Commercial and legal dispute risks
• Security and audit requirements
• Statutory limitation periods

When the retention period expires, information is deleted, destroyed or anonymized where appropriate.

Under KVKK, you may have rights such as requesting information about your personal data, requesting correction, deletion or destruction, learning the third parties to whom data has been transferred, objecting to certain processing activities and claiming compensation if you suffer damage due to unlawful processing.

You may contact us at info@pithsafe.com to exercise these rights.

PithSafe contacts you only based on your request, an existing customer relationship, legitimate interest, explicit consent or another lawful basis.

Where marketing or announcement communications require consent under applicable law, the necessary consent processes are followed. If you do not wish to receive such communications, you may contact us.
