Privacy Policy
Last updated:
Purpose and Scope
The operator of Özel Savoy Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Polikliniği (Savoy Private Oral and Dental Health Clinic), which operates under the Savoy Dental Clinic brand (“Clinic”), is committed to protecting privacy and patient confidentiality.
This policy explains our approach to protecting your personal information when you visit our website at https://savoydentalclinic.com and when you contact us through digital channels. The purposes of processing, the legal bases, and how to submit requests are explained separately in the Privacy Notice.
Information You Share
The first name, last name, phone number, email address, and message you provide when making a contact or appointment request are used to evaluate your request and get back to you. Contacting us does not mean that you agree to receive advertising or promotional messages.
Unless necessary for your request, please do not send your Turkish ID number, detailed medical history, X-rays, test results, or information belonging to other people through general contact channels. When health information is needed, the appropriate communication method specified by the Clinic should be used.
Confidentiality of Health Information
Health information obtained during examination, diagnosis, and treatment is special-category personal data. Access to this information is limited by duty and authorization and to the extent required by the relevant procedure. Being a patient’s relative does not automatically grant access to health information; information is shared based on the patient’s authorization and within the framework of the applicable legislation.
Consent given for treatment does not mean that permission has been granted to publish patient information or images on the website or social media. Such uses are assessed separately under the advertising restrictions in the healthcare sector and personal data legislation; where necessary, a separate information and explicit consent process is carried out.
Cookies and Technical Data
Cookies that require explicit consent are not activated without your preference. Visiting or continuing to use the website does not, by itself, constitute explicit consent. For non-essential cookies, you are given the option to accept, reject, or change your preferences. You can delete or block cookies through your browser; this may affect some website functions.
Service Providers and External Links
External links on the site may direct you to the websites or applications of other organizations. These platforms have their own privacy terms. Your use of an external platform does not remove the Clinic’s obligations regarding the protection of personal data.
Security and Retention
The Clinic is obliged to take the necessary technical and administrative measures under the KVKK to prevent unlawful processing of and unauthorized access to personal data and to ensure its protection. Additional security requirements for special-category data apply to health data.
Data is retained for the period prescribed by legislation for the relevant record type or for as long as required by the purpose of processing. When the legal reasons requiring retention no longer exist, the data is deleted, destroyed, or anonymized in accordance with the legislation. A deletion request does not automatically end ongoing legal retention obligations.
Contact and Changes
This policy may be updated in line with changes in practice and legislation. An update does not constitute explicit consent for past processing. You can exercise your rights regarding your personal data through the application methods described in the Privacy Notice.
