"The protection of personal data in essence, aims to protect the most fundamental rights, freedoms and privacy of the individual...The aim of this book is to explain the basic concepts and practices of technology and technological solutions that play a key role in the protection of personal data to the people and professionals of our country, who were introduced to the Personal Data Protection Regulation in 2016, and to guide to better and safer technical solutions."
"The world encountered a global epidemic unexpectedly. It was delayed first in understanding and then in taking precautions. Countries such as China, Korea, and Singapore, which took the fastest and most effective measures, also benefited from technology and succeeded in slowing the epidemic in a short time and completing its shortcomings. Mobile applications, CCTV and thermal cameras and location data obtained from mobile networks are at the forefront of technological methods. Personal data and privacy were among the topics that created controversy in terms of social priorities while people were struggling to survive during an epidemic."
"The complex and global nature of the industry not only affects maritime trade in economic and financial areas, but also makes it more fragile in terms of high-level personal data that is processed and changed nationally and internationally. Both the KVKK, which came into force in our country in 2016,and the GDPR regulations in the EU, particularly brought more strict rules and more severe penalties to the agenda on collecting, processing, sharing and deletion of this personal data”.
"Even though not in the KVKK, epidemics are mentioned in the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The corona virus epidemic has begun to change the way privacy is protected. Various data protection authorities have started to produce more opinions and evaluations in order to use their rules regarding the more effective use of personal data during this epidemic, without compromising the protection of privacy."
"The fact that transactions, made by nearly 2,000 notaries spreading across the country, are stored in a central system and can be accessed by other notaries or notary publics, when necessary, on the one hand allowed these transactions to be carried out effectively and quickly, but on the other hand, made this information to be exposed to very serious risks".
"Insurance is a sector that deals with personal data, especially personal data of special nature (mainly personal health data) due to its main activities. Therefore, it needs to be much more careful during and after the epidemic. People and companies experiencing great distress globally will be more feisty, more fragile”.
"Today, the epidemic (pandemic) that terrorizes the whole world has interestingly provided us with such an intense work opportunity. What is even more interesting is that the tourism sector is perhaps the most disrupted and battered sector by the epidemic. Tourism is an important sector, especially for Turkey, and it seems that 2020 will be a very difficult year for tourism, and therefore for sectors that are part of the tourism ecosystem."
"It is a cloud-based platform that enables face-to-face video calling (Video Conferencing) in a single meeting with an easy video, audio, chat and content sharing to individuals and companies from different devices and locations. It is an application that is easy to use, manage and deploy and scalable. While the isolation / quarantine / curfews that started with the epidemic have led to a burst in the use of the Zoom application, this widespread use revealed the gaps and privacy risks of the application."
