Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

As Prime IT ("Company"), we have adopted the principle of protecting the privacy of personal data of the users ("User") of the Speetz mobile application ("Application"). This Privacy Policy has been prepared in accordance with the Law on Protection of Personal Data No. 6698 ("KVKK") and the European Union General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR") to explain which of your personal data is processed, for which purposes, how it is shared, stored, and protected.

2. Categories of Processed Personal Data and Processing Purposes

• Identity and Contact Information: (Name, surname, email address, phone number) For account creation, verification, establishment and execution of the contractual relationship, and communication.
• Profile Information: (Biography, profile picture, interests, gender, date of birth) For personalizing and presenting social interaction features.
• User Content: (Posts, photos, videos, comments, messages, participated event and tournament information) For the complete provision of application functions.
• Location Data: (GPS, IP Address, base station data) For providing location-based features (nearby users/events), security, and analysis.
• Social Interaction Data: (Friend lists, follower information, blocked users, likes) For operating social network features.
• Technical and Usage Data: (Device model, operating system, unique device identifiers, network information, in-app navigation times, click data) For performance analysis, debugging, improving service quality, and providing a personalized experience.
• Transaction Security Data: (Passwords, IP logs, data for fraud detection) For ensuring security.

3. Legal Grounds for Data Processing

• Establishment or performance of a contract (provision of Application services).
• Fulfillment of the Company's legal obligations (tax, accounting legislation).
• Establishment, exercise, or protection of a right.
• Legitimate interest of the Company (service development, marketing, providing security).
• Your explicit consent (for specific marketing communications, etc., in cases reliant on consent).

4. Transfer of Personal Data

Your personal data may be transferred:

• To Our Service Providers: To third parties we have contracted with to provide services such as server hosting, data analysis, email sending, customer services, limited to the purpose of the service and obligated to act in accordance with KVKK and GDPR (e.g., Google Firebase, CRM providers).
• To Legal Authorities: Upon the lawful request of authorized legal, administrative, or law enforcement authorities.
• To Third Parties: To third parties who acquire the Company's rights and obligations within the scope of a merger, transfer, or bankruptcy process.

5. Transfer of Data Abroad

The Application uses services such as Google LLC's Firebase for data storage and analysis services. In this context, your personal data may be transferred to servers located in the USA. The USA is not recognized by the European Commission as a country with an adequate level of protection. Therefore, these transfers are based on legal validity grounds compliant with the GDPR, such as the application of Standard Contractual Clauses and additional technical-security measures.

6. Data Retention Period

Your personal data is stored for the legal periods required for the processing purposes. When the processing purpose ceases to exist or a deletion request is received, your data is deleted, destroyed, or anonymized, unless a legal obligation requires its retention.

7. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and administrative security measures (encryption, access controls, regular audits) to protect your personal data. However, no data transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure.

8. User Rights (Data Subject Rights)

In accordance with KVKK and GDPR, you can contact us to exercise your rights such as access, rectification, deletion, restriction, objection, and data portability. You can submit your requests via the contact details in Section 13.
