When we no longer need to process your personal data, we will either delete or anonymize it, or if this is not possible (e.g., because your personal data has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal data and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

\n\n8. International Data Transfers
\nAs an online travel platform operating from Turkey, your information may be stored and processed in Turkey or any other country where we or our service providers maintain facilities.

These measures include encryption, firewalls, and secure socket layer (SSL) technology for data transmission.
