Data in Turkey, records compliant, ready for audit at any time
Meet your KVKK and 5651 obligations on a single infrastructure with data residency that keeps data in Turkey, 5651-compliant log retention, time-stamping and audit records.
Compliance is a state that must hold every day, not just on audit day
KVKK and 5651 are not just paperwork; you need to be able to prove at any moment where the data resides, who accessed it and how long the logs are kept. Trying to gather this evidence on the morning of the audit is the most expensive route.
Primary and backup data are kept on infrastructure within Turkey and do not leave the country.
Logs are kept time-stamped and immutable (WORM) for the legally required period.
Who accessed what and when is recorded and reported.
Personal data is masked; encrypted at rest and in transit.
Recommended architecture
A compliance layer that meets KVKK and 5651 requirements; it is added in front of and beneath your existing application.
What compliance teams say
Frequently asked questions about KVKK and 5651 compliance
Yes. Both primary and backup data are stored on infrastructure we operate in Tier III+ data centers within Turkey; data is not transferred abroad. This is aligned with KVKK’s data residency expectation.
Traffic and access logs are kept for the legally required period (a default of two years), immutable (WORM) and signed with a TÜBİTAK-certified time stamp. Logchase handles this retention and reporting.
A time stamp proves that a record existed at the stated moment and has not been altered since. For logs to carry evidentiary value in 5651 and judicial processes, records are expected to be time-stamped and their integrity preserved.
Encryption at rest and in transit, role-based access, multi-factor authentication, personal data masking and a detailed audit trail are applied; all of this is operated within the scope of the ISO 27001 information security management system.
Since access and transaction records are kept centrally in Logchase, reports for the date range the auditor requests are produced within minutes; you do not have to go server by server to gather evidence.
With masking rules at collection time, personal data such as national ID number, email or IP can be masked; log access is role-based and every query is written to the audit trail.
Records whose defined retention period has expired are periodically deleted, destroyed or anonymized under a documented deletion/disposal policy; this satisfies KVKK’s principle of time-limited retention.
Logs scattered across servers were centralized in Logchase and made immutable with time-stamping. Access records for the date range the auditor requested were reported within minutes.
