Purpose of the Privacy Policy

Social Attend provides its customers with a platform, together with the relevant support and hosting services, enabling them to create and manage mobile applications. Through this platform, Social Attend Customers provide such applications to end users in connection with any events and conferences organized by them.

​

Social Attend respects the privacy rights of its customers and end users. Social Attend has established this Privacy Policy to inform its customers about how the private information provided to Social Attend by its customers will be used.

​

This Privacy Policy provides information regarding the principles and procedures governing the collection and use of information by Social Attend, as well as the use and disclosure of personal information obtained from:

1. Social Attend Customers;

2. End Users who download and use the Applications created by Social Attend Customers; and

3. Visitors who merely browse the Application (“Visitors”).

​

With the approval of the Social Attend Customer, End Users may be requested to provide additional personal information, and information regarding interactions between End Users and Social Attend Customer Applications may be collected.

It is deemed that the Privacy Policy has been read and understood before any information is provided to Social Attend Customers or other third parties. Social Attend assumes no responsibility whatsoever for the use of End User information by its Customers.

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. In the event of any changes, the new Privacy Policy will be published on the Social Attend website (www.socialattend.com).

​

This Privacy Policy sets forth the privacy principles followed by Social Attend regarding the use and disclosure of personal information in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Türkiye.

​

Protection of Personal Data

Social Attend hereby accepts and undertakes to fulfill all of its obligations under Turkish Law No. 6698 on the Protection of Personal Data (the “Law”).

​

Social Attend does not collect or process “special categories of personal data” as defined under Article 6 of Law No. 6698. Furthermore, pursuant to Article 9 of the Law, data is hosted on Amazon Ireland servers where an adequate level of protection is provided, and users are requested to provide the “explicit consent” required for the use of the application and as required by applicable law when installing and using the application.

​

Finally, pursuant to Article 7 of the Law, a user may request the destruction or deletion of their personal data from the service provider at any time, and such request shall be promptly fulfilled by the Service Provider. In such a case, since the user will no longer be able to use the application, you acknowledge that Social Attend shall not be held responsible for any consequences arising from such situation.

​

The COMPANY is responsible for adequately informing its employees, in relation to the applications prepared under the responsibility of the CUSTOMER, about the relevant law and other applicable legislation, as well as the measures taken in this regard.

​

By this provision, the COMPANY acknowledges and agrees that Law No. 6698 shall be implemented by Social Attend within the scope of this Agreement, that Social Attend shall not be held responsible for any consequences arising from the failure of the COMPANY's employees, as users, to provide the consent required by law due to the implementation of the Law, and that the COMPANY has been duly informed by Social Attend regarding this matter.

 

How This Privacy Policy Works

​

​1. What Types of Information Do You Collect and How Do You Collect It?

At various times, you may be asked to provide your name, email address, telephone number, or other information. The information collected is generally classified as Anonymous Information or Personally Identifiable Information (PII).

• Anonymous Information refers to information that cannot be associated with a specific individual. Some individuals who access our Services choose not to use the personalization features applicable to them. Therefore, such individuals remain anonymous to us, and the only data we may collect about them is Anonymous Information.

• Personally Identifiable Information (PII) refers to information that identifies who you are, particularly information such as your name, email address, or telephone number. Downloading and using the Application enables the COMPANY to recognize you for the purpose of personalizing its services.

​

Use of Anonymous Information

As is the case with most applications and websites, we automatically collect certain information, such as your mobile service provider, operating system, and similar technical information, and store such information in log files.

​

We use this information, which does not identify individual users, to analyze trends, administer the Application, monitor users’ activities within the Application, and collect demographic information about our user base as a whole.

​

We may link this automatically collected data with certain Personally Identifiable Information.

​

Personally Identifiable Information

If you are a Social Attend Customer, when you register on our Website to create or manage an Application, you may be asked to provide personally identifiable information such as your first name, last name, company name, email address, and billing address. You may review, correct, and update your personal information by logging into your profile on our Website. If you wish to delete all of your information, we may cancel your account. We may retain an archived copy of your records where required by law.

​

In order to use certain features of this Service or Application, Social Attend Customers may request certain personal information from you, including your name, company, title, email address, postal address, and telephone or mobile phone number. Providing such information is voluntary. Depending on the Services you choose to use, your Personally Identifiable Information may be used by Social Attend or by Social Attend Customers. Personally Identifiable Information may also be provided by agents and third parties who assist us in operating and supporting the Application.

​

Except as otherwise stated in this Privacy Policy, we do not rent or sell your personal information to third parties without your consent.

If you choose to allow the Application to collect your location data, such location data will be made available to Social Attend Customers. In addition, if you have an account on Facebook, Twitter, Google+, LinkedIn, Foursquare, or other similar platforms (each a “Social Network”), your Social Network identity, including your publicly available photograph, may be associated with your location data. Social Attend may also receive and process information about you collected through such Social Networks.

​

2. How Is Personal Information Used?

​

General Use

As Social Attend, we primarily use Customers’ personal information for the purpose of providing the Services and communicating with them regarding account activity, new versions and product offerings, or other matters relating to the Services.

​

We do not sell or share End Users’ personal information with any third party, except with the relevant Social Attend Customer.

If you do not wish to receive information and news from Social Attend, you may send an email to info@socialattend.com and request to be removed from the mailing list.

​

In such cases, the circumstances under which your information may be shared with third parties are described in Section 4 below.

​

3. How Do You Store My Personal Information?

Individual Information Storage

Social Attend uses secure data networks protected by industry-standard firewalls and password protection systems. Our security and privacy policies are reviewed periodically and enhanced where necessary.

Despite such measures, Social Attend does not guarantee that its security measures will prevent unauthorized access, or prevent personal information from being unlawfully accessed, stolen, altered, or otherwise compromised.

​

4. Do You Distribute Any Personal Information to Others?

Service Providers

We may engage third parties to assist with the operation and distribution of our Applications, user authentication, and the provision of products and services. For these purposes, we may share your Personally Identifiable Information with our business partners, service providers, vendors, suppliers, Social Networks, and other third parties that provide products or services for or through this Service.

Such third parties may include, without limitation, Website or database hosting companies, authentication providers, address-list hosting companies, email service providers, analytics companies, distribution companies, and other similar service providers that use such information on our behalf.

​

Aggregated Statistics

As a measure of the use of and interest in our Services and Applications, we may provide third parties with aggregated data regarding user behavior, based on statistics or general reports that do not identify any individual user.

​

Compliance with Legal Proceedings

Social Attend may be required to disclose personal information when requested or required by competent public authorities or pursuant to applicable legal processes.

​

Social Attend Transition Period

In the event that Social Attend is acquired by another company, enters into a partnership, or sells some or all of its assets, your Personally Identifiable Information may be transferred to the new entity or structure.

Any such change in ownership, as well as any change in the control of your personal information, will be notified to you within 30 days through the Social Attend website.

In addition, Social Attend reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to disclose, transfer, or sell your personal information to its affiliated companies.
