Lavoisier Labs

Personal Data Protection and Processing Policy

Last updated: 6 August 2026. Structured in line with KVKK (Law No. 6698) transparency practices and aligned with GDPR principles.

Purpose

According to Article 20 of the Constitution of the Republic of Turkey, everyone has the right to request the protection of their personal data. This right includes being informed, accessing data, requesting correction or deletion, and learning whether data is used for its intended purpose.

The Personal Data Protection Law No. 6698 (“KVKK”) was enacted on 07.04.2016 to protect individuals’ fundamental rights and freedoms and to regulate the obligations of persons and institutions that process personal data. Where applicable, we also observe the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Lavoisier Labs (“Company”) collects, processes, stores, and protects personal data in accordance with KVKK and other applicable legal regulations. This policy ensures transparency in fulfilling our personal-data obligations.

Definitions

  • Explicit Consent — a freely given, informed, and specific declaration of approval regarding a particular subject.
  • Personal Data — any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.
  • Sensitive Personal Data — data relating to race, ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, sect, health, sexual life, and similar categories defined by law.
  • Data Subject — a natural person whose personal data is processed.
  • Data Controller — the person who determines the purposes and means of processing and manages the data recording system (Lavoisier Labs).
  • Data Processor — a person who processes personal data on behalf of the controller.
  • Processing — collection, recording, storage, alteration, disclosure, transfer, classification, or prevention of use, whether automated or not.

Principles for processing personal data

  • Compliance with the law and principles of honesty
  • Accuracy and keeping data up to date where necessary
  • Processing for specified, explicit, and legitimate purposes
  • Processing in a manner that is relevant, limited, and proportionate
  • Retention for the period required by law or necessary for the processing purpose

Conditions for processing personal data

As per Article 5 of KVKK, personal data cannot be processed without the explicit consent of the data subject, except where:

  • Explicitly required by law
  • Necessary to protect life or physical integrity where consent cannot be obtained
  • Directly related to the establishment or performance of a contract
  • Necessary to fulfil a legal obligation
  • Made public by the data subject
  • Necessary for the establishment, exercise, or protection of a legal right
  • Necessary for the legitimate interests of the data controller, provided fundamental rights are not violated

Processing of sensitive personal data

Sensitive personal data may only be processed under the conditions specified by law and with necessary administrative and technical measures. We do not currently process sensitive personal data such as health information via this website.

Personal data may be transferred to processors (for example hosting, email, or analytics providers) within or outside the country in compliance with KVKK Articles 8 and 9 and GDPR Chapter V, with appropriate safeguards. Where tools are hosted outside Türkiye / the EEA, we apply contractual and technical safeguards. Details of subprocessors are available on request.
