Data Ethics for the Intelligence Age
At Istanbul Analytics Gridworks, we believe that BI and advanced analytics should never come at the expense of individual privacy. This policy outlines our rigorous standards for data stewardship and your rights as a partner in our ecosystem.
Information Gathering Disclosure
Istanbul Analytics Gridworks collects various categories of personal data to deliver our professional BI services. This includes identifiers such as your name and business email address when you interact with our platform, as well as digital identifiers (IP addresses and browser configurations) collected through our standard operations.
We process this data under several legal bases: the fulfillment of our contractual obligations to you, compliance with legal requirements in Turkey (KVKK) and the European Union (GDPR), and our legitimate interest in improving our technological infrastructure.
User Provisioned
Contact forms, account registration data, and communication logs directed to our Istanbul office.
Automated Insights
Log files, device types, and usage patterns analyzed to refine our technical performance.
Retention & Protection
Your data resides within highly secure, encrypted environments. We employ AES-256 encryption at rest and TLS 1.3 for all data in transit. Our retention periods are strictly governed by the "Purpose Limitation" principle: data is only kept as long as necessary for the specific intelligence delivery agreed upon, or as required by Turkish law.
Empowering Your Rights
You maintain full sovereignty over your digital footprint. As a partner of Istanbul Analytics Gridworks, you are entitled to exercise the following rights at any time.
Access & Export
Request a comprehensive report of all personal identifiers we hold. We provide these in machine-readable formats for your portability needs.
Correction & Erasure
Maintain the accuracy of your information. You may request the immediate correction of mistakes or the complete deletion of your data profile.
Objection to Processing
Change your mind about how we use your data for our analytics research or marketing communications.
Ready to exercise a right?
Our Data Protection Officer typically responds within 48 business hours.
Local Roots, Global Standards
While Istanbul Analytics Gridworks is based at Istanbul 45, Istanbul, our digital operations adhere to global best practices. We ensure that if your data is transferred outside of Turkey, it is protected by Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) and robust security audits.
Third-Party Integrity
We do not sell data to brokers. Any service provider we use must undergo a rigorous security assessment.
Minor Privacy Protection
Our tools are designed for business intelligence professionals; we do not knowingly collect data from individuals under 18.
