The deletion of personal data will mean that the data in question will no longer be accessible or used by anyone.

Medica Fly may use one or more of the following methods to destroy, delete or anonymize personal data, depending on the environment in which the data is stored.

5.1.2   Destruction of Personal Data

Destruction of personal data is the process of making personal data inaccessible, unrecoverable and reusable by anyone by the following institutions.

 

  • Physical Annihilation
  • Destruction by Paper Shredder
  • De-magnetization: A method in which magnetic media is passed through special devices that expose it to high magnetic fields, causing the data on it to become unreadable.

 

5.1.3 Anonymization of Personal Data

Anonymization of personal data means that personal data cannot be associated with an identified or identifiable person under any circumstances, even by matching with other data. Medica Fly may use one or more of the following methods to anonymize personal data:

Masking: Data masking is a method of anonymizing personal data by removing the identifying information from the data set.

Record Removal: In the record removal method, unique data rows are removed from the records and the stored data is anonymized.

Regional Concealment: In the regional concealment method, since a single data creates a very rarely visible combination, if it has a determining feature, hiding the relevant data provides anonymization.

Global Coding: With the data derivation method, a more general content is created than the content of the personal data and it is ensured that the personal data cannot be associated with any person. For example; indication of ages instead of dates of birth; specifying the area of ​​residence instead of the full address.

Adding Noise: In the data set where numerical data is predominant, the data anonymization is achieved by adding certain deviations in the positive or negative direction to the existing data by the noise addition method. For example, in a data group where weight values are present, using (+/-) 3 kg deviation, the display of real values is prevented and the data is anonymized. The deviation is applied to each value equally.

According to article 28 of the Law, anonymized personal data can be processed for purposes such as research, planning and statistics. Such processing is outside the scope of the Law and the personal data owner’s explicit consent will not be sought.

Medica Fly will be able to make its own decision regarding the deletion, destruction or anonymization of personal data and freely determine the method to be used according to the category it has chosen. In addition, if the person concerned chooses one of the categories of deletion, destruction or anonymization of his personal data during the application within the scope of Article 13 of the Regulation, MEDICA FLY will be at liberty regarding the methods to be used in the relevant category.
