5. Recipients
| Recipient group | Purpose | Legal ground |
|---|---|---|
| Competent public authorities (ministries, customs administrations, courts) | Statutory notification, declaration and reporting obligations | Art. 8/2-a |
| Accountants, auditors and legal advisers | Accounting, tax and legal processes | Art. 8/2-a and Art. 5/2-ç |

6. International transfers
| Transfer | Country / provider | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Website hosting | France — GoDaddy / Host Europe GmbH (Strasbourg) | KVKK Art. 9 — continuous transfer; standard contractual clauses under Art. 9/2 as amended by Law No. 7499 |

The Turkish Personal Data Protection Board has not issued an adequacy decision for any country to date. Continuous transfers — including hosting — are therefore based on appropriate safeguards under Article 9/2 of the Law: standard contractual clauses, binding corporate rules or an undertaking. Where standard contractual clauses are signed, the Board is notified within five business days of signature. Our hosting is located in an EU member state (France), which means the data is processed under the European data protection regime; this does not, however, change the fact that the transfer is made abroad for the purposes of the KVKK.
