RENAR TOURISM AUTOMOTIVE CONSTRUCTION RENT A CAR INDUSTRY AND TRADE INC. establishes a system that is compatible with its corporate values defined in its company profile and can maintain accreditation criteria in the future. Based on this Policy, the Management considers the development of a system as a strategic choice.
Our company collects personal and special categories of personal data of its customers and employees in order to operate in the sector, establish a valid contractual relationship, and fulfill mandatory notifications to public institutions and organizations.
2. PURPOSE The processing of personal data is part of RENAR TOURISM AUTOMOTIVE CONSTRUCTION RENT A CAR INDUSTRY AND TRADE INC.'s responsibility as a company subject to Law No. 6698. The purpose of this Policy is to ensure data protection and minimize risks related to protection.
3. RISK ASSESSMENT Violations related to data protection may have serious legal consequences and ensuring a high level of personal data protection provides economic benefits to our companies, customers, employees, or related parties. Since protecting personal data is also crucial for our company’s reputation, we comply with the obligations stipulated under the “Technical and Administrative Measures to Be Taken by the Data Controller” issued by the Personal Data Protection Authority and the obligations under KVKK. To mitigate risks, necessary measures such as securely storing personal data, masking when needed, destroying data when required, ensuring processing only by authorized personnel, and keeping data in secure physical or digital environments have been implemented. The implementation of this Policy minimizes risks related to data protection.
4. SCOPE OF APPLICATION This Policy covers the processing of personal data, particularly by data processors appointed by the data controller. The Policy applies to customers, employees, suppliers, and subcontractors.
5. DATA PROTECTION PRINCIPLES Personal data must be processed legally and in a manner that protects privacy rights. For this purpose, the following data protection principles must be followed:
5.1 Processing in Compliance with Law and Fairness: This fundamental principle ensures transparency in data processing activities.
5.2 Proportionality: The principle of proportionality must be considered in the processing of personal data. Data must be processed in a way that is proportionate to its purpose.
5.3 Transparency: As a principle, data subjects should be able to access their data upon request and must be adequately informed by the data controller.
5.4 Data Economy and "Need to Know" Principle: Personal data should only be processed to the extent necessary for achieving defined objectives. As a rule, personal data should not be collected in advance or stored for potential future use. Legal regulations, contract management, and requests from public institutions determine the proportional processing of personal data. When data destruction conditions arise, data will be deleted. Access to personal data is provided based on the "need to know" principle, ensuring that only those who need access to perform their duties can obtain it.
5.5 Data Quality: Personal data must be collected and processed accurately and objectively. Necessary measures should be taken to ensure that incorrect or incomplete data is corrected, updated, and integrated.
5.6 Processing Confidentiality: Personal data must be protected against unauthorized access. It is prohibited for unauthorized persons to process personal data. Additionally, authorized individuals must not transfer data processing activities or access rights to unauthorized parties. This principle is enforced through policies and confidentiality agreements.
6. DATA TRANSFER Personal data may only be transferred to subcontractors, suppliers, and other firms in contractual relationships, in connection with the purpose of data processing. Transfer conditions are separately regulated in the information notice. Transfers are made in proportion to the purpose and nature of the transaction, under the authority of the data controller. Data sharing is only possible with the explicit consent of the data subject. Personal data cannot be shared with anyone, including close relatives, without explicit consent. If the data subject wants a third party to access their data, the request must be made with a valid notarized authorization document containing special authority. In case of the data subject's death, personal data may only be shared with heirs through a court order.
7. RIGHTS OF THE DATA SUBJECT If personal data is processed, data subjects must have the opportunity to obtain information regarding their data. Article 11 of KVKK lists the rights of data subjects, which include:
7.1. Right to learn whether persaonal data is being processed. 7.2. Right to request information if personal data has been processed. 7.3. Right to learn the purpose of processing and whether it is used appropriately. 7.4. Right to know third parties to whom data has been transferred domestically or abroad. 7.5. Right to request correction of incomplete or incorrect data. 7.6. Right to request deletion or destruction of data when processing duration expires. 7.7. Right to seek compensation for damages incurred due to unlawful processing of personal data.

PERSONAL DATA DESTRUCTION POLICY
PERSONAL DATA RETENTION AND DISPOSAL POLICY
We would like to inform data subjects whose personal data we process about how long their data is stored in our system and the conditions and durations for its disposal within the scope of the Personal Data Protection Law No. 6698 and the Regulation on the Deletion, Destruction, or Anonymization of Personal Data. As the data controller, RENAR TURİZM OTOMOTİV İNŞAAT RENT A CAR SANAYİ VE TİC. A.Ş. will implement this retention and disposal policy.
First and foremost, we would like to emphasize that as a company, we use a data retention method and tool that complies with the necessary requirements.
A disposal policy that contradicts Law No. 6698, relevant regulations, Convention 108+, and the decisions of the Personal Data Protection Board has not been adopted.
Appropriate security measures have been implemented to protect personal data contained in automated data files from unauthorized access, modification, or disclosure, as well as from accidental or unauthorized destruction.
Necessary precautions have been taken to safeguard files against both natural risks such as accidental loss or destruction and human-induced risks such as unauthorized access, fraudulent misuse of data, or infection by computer viruses.
The personal data we collect in the areas specified in our personal data protection policy and disclosure text are recorded and stored in a secure environment. Apart from our legal obligation to retain data, these records are kept for a minimum of three years.
Law No. 6698 and the relevant regulations grant us the right to choose and manage the method of data disposal. The data controller will determine the appropriate disposal method depending on the type of personal data. If the data subject requests data disposal, the appropriate method will be selected with an explanation of the rationale. Before deleting the data, the data controller will notify the data subject via their registered email or postal address, informing them of the disposal method to be used.
Administrative and technical measures will be taken during the disposal process of personal data. Once disposed of, records of the disposal will be kept in a secure environment for at least three years. The retention period required by legal obligations remains in effect.
Data of inactive customers, job applicants, employees, subcontractors, and suppliers will be disposed of immediately, except for legally required retention periods. Information about the disposal process and the disposal method will be communicated to the relevant individual using an appropriate method.
If all conditions for processing personal data specified in Articles 5 and 6 of the Law are no longer met, personal data will be deleted, destroyed, or anonymized by the Company, either ex officio or upon the request of the data subject.
The data subject also has the right to request the deletion of their data from the Company. In such cases, the Company will respond to the request within a maximum of 30 days. The groups to which the data was transferred will also be informed about the request, and if the conditions for deletion are met, the data will be erased. If the deletion conditions are not met, the data subject will be informed of the reason why the data was not deleted and when it is expected to be deleted.
The personal data of the data subject is processed and stored for the following reasons:
The retention activity does not exceed the period stipulated by law for mandatory data retention.
For this purpose:
When determining retention and disposal periods, the Company evaluates the following criteria within the framework of Law No. 6698 and the relevant regulations:
Personal data whose retention period has expired is anonymized, deleted, or destroyed in accordance with the methods specified in this Policy at six-month intervals. All deletion, destruction, and anonymization processes are recorded, and these records are retained for at least three (3) years, excluding other legal obligations.
As part of administrative measures, the Company:
Technical Measures:
Within the scope of technical measures, the company:
Conducts penetration tests to identify risks, threats, vulnerabilities, and potential security gaps in the organization's IT systems, taking necessary precautions accordingly. Through information security incident management, real-time analyses are performed to mitigate risks and threats that could impact IT system continuity.
Implements both hardware-based (e.g., access control systems allowing only authorized personnel into system rooms, 24/7 monitoring systems, physical security measures for edge switches in local area networks, fire suppression systems, climate control systems, etc.) and software-based (e.g., firewalls, intrusion prevention systems, network access control, malware prevention systems, etc.) security measures to protect IT systems from environmental threats.
Identifies risks related to the unlawful processing of personal data, ensures the implementation of appropriate technical measures, and conducts technical audits of these measures.
Establishes access procedures within the organization and conducts reporting and analysis related to access to personal data.
Logs access to storage areas containing personal data, keeping unauthorized access or access attempts under control. The organization ensures that deleted personal data remains inaccessible and unrecoverable for relevant users.

Monitors security vulnerabilities, applies relevant security patches, and keeps IT systems up to date.
Requires the use of strong passwords in electronic environments where personal data is processed.
Uses secure logging systems in electronic environments where personal data is processed and employs data backup programs to ensure secure storage.
Has established a separate policy for securing sensitive personal data. Employees involved in the processing of sensitive personal data receive specialized training on data security, sign confidentiality agreements, and have their access privileges clearly defined. Electronic environments where sensitive personal data is processed, stored, and/or accessed are protected using cryptographic methods, cryptographic keys are stored securely, all transactions are logged, security updates are regularly monitored, necessary security tests are conducted periodically, and test results are recorded. Physical environments where sensitive personal data is processed, stored, and/or accessed are equipped with sufficient security measures to prevent unauthorized entry or exit. If sensitive personal data must be transmitted via email, it is sent in encrypted form through corporate email accounts or KEP (Registered Electronic Mail) accounts.
If sensitive personal data must be transferred via portable storage devices, CDs, or DVDs, it is encrypted using cryptographic methods, and the cryptographic key is stored in a separate environment. If data is transferred between different physical servers, the transfer is conducted through a VPN or sFTP. If transfer via paper documents is necessary, measures are taken to prevent theft, loss, or unauthorized viewing of the documents, and they are marked as "confidential."
