Privacy Policy and Personal Data Protection

This privacy policy applies to www.cengizler.net, operated by CENGİZLER DEMİR SAC MÜHENDİSLİK İNŞAAT SANAYİ VE TİCARET LTD ŞTİ, and to the WhatsApp CRM used by the company to communicate with customers.

Collection and Use of Personal Data

Personal data about visitors may be collected when they access the website or through information they provide. This information will be used to improve our services and the website content.

Data Processed Through WhatsApp CRM

When you contact our company through WhatsApp, the WhatsApp CRM used for customer relationship management may process your name and surname, telephone number, WhatsApp profile name and profile image (if available), message content, message dates and times, audio, image and file attachments, enquiries and quotation details, and communication preferences. Customer notes, tasks and follow-up records created by authorised company users to handle the conversation may also be stored.

Purposes of Processing WhatsApp CRM Data

This data is processed to answer your enquiries and questions, provide information about our products and services, manage quotations and sales, provide customer support and after-sales services, preserve conversation history, follow up on customer requests, improve service quality, maintain information security and meet legal obligations. Where required, commercial electronic communications take account of consent and preference records in accordance with the applicable legislation.

How Data Is Collected, Shared and Retained

Your personal data may be collected through information you send us using our website forms, email, telephone, face-to-face communication and WhatsApp. For communications through WhatsApp, data is processed through the WhatsApp/Meta infrastructure to enable the communication. Data may be shared, to the extent necessary and in accordance with Turkish Personal Data Protection Law No. 6698, with our authorised employees, suppliers providing technical support, hosting, backup or software services needed to deliver the service, and legally authorised public institutions and organisations. The technical infrastructure of WhatsApp/Meta services may involve processing or transferring data on servers outside Türkiye; such transfers are carried out in accordance with the applicable data protection legislation.

WhatsApp CRM records are retained for as long as the relevant processing purpose requires, taking statutory retention periods into account. When the purpose for retention no longer applies or the legal retention period ends, the data is deleted, destroyed or anonymised.

Data Security

We take the technical and organisational security measures necessary to protect your personal data. Only users authorised as part of their duties may access WhatsApp CRM records. Measures are applied to manage access rights, secure sessions and protect records. These measures aim to protect your data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration or destruction.
