Purposes and legal grounds
We process your personal data only for the purposes below, relying on the legal grounds set out in the Turkish Personal Data Protection Law no. 6698 (KVKK).
| Purpose | Legal ground (KVKK) |
|---|---|
| Assessing a thesis printing support application, contacting the applicant and delivering the support | art. 5/2-c: directly related to the conclusion or performance of a contract |
| Receiving, assessing and forwarding adverse reaction reports to the competent authority | art. 5/2-a and 5/2-ç: expressly provided for by law and compliance with a legal obligation |
| Answering your questions and requests | art. 5/2-f: legitimate interest |
| Meeting our statutory retention, audit and reporting obligations | art. 5/2-ç: legal obligation |
| Establishing and protecting our rights in the event of a dispute | art. 5/2-e: establishment, exercise or protection of a right |
If you gave separate consent on the thesis support form, your contact details are also used to inform you about similar academic support programmes. That use relies on explicit consent and you may withdraw it at any time.
Adverse reaction reports and health data
By their nature, suspected adverse reaction reports may contain health data. Health data is a special category of personal data under article 6 of the KVKK and is processed only to fulfil our obligations under pharmacovigilance legislation, by personnel bound by a duty of confidentiality.
As required by pharmacovigilance legislation, these reports are forwarded to the Turkish Pharmacovigilance Centre (TÜFAM) within the Turkish Medicines and Medical Devices Agency. Directly identifying information is processed only to the minimum extent necessary to assess the report.
To report an adverse reaction: speak to your doctor or pharmacist first. You may also send the report to pharmacovigilance@aymedilac.com.
Transfer of personal data
We do not sell your personal data and we do not share it with third parties for marketing purposes. Transfers take place only in the following cases and only as far as the purpose requires:
- To competent public authorities: under statutory reporting and inspection obligations, in particular to the Turkish Medicines and Medical Devices Agency.
- To our suppliers: to the printing and courier companies engaged for thesis printing support, limited to the information needed for delivery.
- To our legal advisers and competent bodies: in the event of a dispute or a legal request.
Transfers are made in accordance with article 8 of the KVKK. Our website contains no third-party advertising network, social media tracker or analytics tool; data about your use of the site is not transferred abroad in this way.
Retention periods
We retain your personal data for as long as the purpose requires and until the retention periods laid down by legislation expire. Once the period ends, data is deleted, destroyed or anonymised.
- Thesis printing support records: for the general limitation period after the support is completed.
- Adverse reaction reports: for the period required by pharmacovigilance legislation.
- General correspondence: for a reasonable period after the matter is closed.
