As a rule, your personal data is not shared with third parties and is not transferred abroad.

In accordance with the 2024 amendments to Article 9 of the KVKK, this transfer is based on the appropriate safeguards (standard contractual clauses) provided by the service provider and/or the derogation for specific (occasional) situations in order to fulfill your communication request. Using WhatsApp is entirely voluntary.
