To comply with legal, medical and record-keeping obligations.

3. Legal Basis for Processing

We process personal data on the basis of your consent, our legitimate interest in responding to your requests, and where applicable our legal obligations under the Turkish Personal Data Protection Law (KVKK No. 6698) and, for visitors in the European Union, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
