KVKK and AI Chatbots: Why is Compliance Essential?

Artificial intelligence chatbots are revolutionizing many areas, from customer service to sales processes. However, when using this technology, ignoring the obligations under the Personal Data Protection Law (KVKK) can create serious legal and financial risks for your business. Every chatbot that processes users' personal data must strictly adhere to data privacy and security principles. Palmate AI simplifies this process for you, offering turnkey KVKK-compliant chatbot solutions.

Data Privacy is the Foundation of User Trust

Users are becoming increasingly conscious of how their personal data is used. A transparent data processing policy and full compliance with KVKK increase trust in your brand and reinforce customer loyalty. A KVKK-compliant chatbot is not just a legal requirement but also a competitive advantage.

Steps to Set Up a KVKK-Compliant Chatbot

Here are the essential steps to make your AI chatbot compliant with KVKK:

1. Explicit Consent and Privacy Policy

Before your chatbot interacts with a user, it must present a privacy policy that clearly states what data will be processed, why, and how. It is mandatory to obtain 'explicit consent' from the user for processing personal data. Palmate AI offers ready-made modules that allow you to easily integrate these texts and consent mechanisms into your chatbot flows.

2. The Principle of Data Minimization

KVKK requires that only necessary data relevant to the purpose is collected. Your chatbot should not request any personal data that is not essential for providing its service. Palmate's flexible infrastructure allows you to precisely control which data fields are collected.

3. Data Security and Retention Periods

Collected data must be stored securely against unauthorized access and leaks. Furthermore, when the purpose for processing the data no longer exists, it must be destroyed in accordance with legal timeframes. Palmate AI hosts all data on high-security servers located in Turkey and allows you to easily manage data retention policies.

How Does Palmate AI's KVKK-Compliant Infrastructure Stand Out from Competitors?

Many chatbot solutions on the market host their data centers abroad and struggle to fully comply with Turkey's local legislation. Palmate AI stands out with its infrastructure designed with KVKK compliance at its core.

Local Data Storage and Legal Compliance

Unlike our competitors, all data processed with Palmate AI remains within Turkey's borders. This guarantees full compliance with KVKK's strict rules on data transfer. Legal compliance requirements like GDPR and KVKK are a fundamental feature of our platform.

Transparent and Manageable Data Processing

Through the Palmate dashboard, you can access all data collected by your chatbot, easily manage user requests (data deletion, correction, etc.), and transparently audit your data processing procedures. This level of control is a critical advantage not found in many global competitors.

Ready-to-Use Compliance Templates

Even without technical or legal expertise, you can set up a KVKK-compliant chatbot in minutes using Palmate's ready-made privacy policy and explicit consent templates. This saves you time and consultancy costs.
