Our website uses necessary cookies to function and, only with your consent, additional cookies (for example for maps or statistics). You can change or withdraw your consent at any time using the cookie settings button on the website. You can also delete cookies in your browser settings.
5. Who receives your data
Your data is accessed only by the Alfatech employees who need it. If necessary for your project, we share it with carefully selected partners (for example logistics companies, installation subcontractors, certification bodies, accountants and IT service providers), who are bound by confidentiality and data protection obligations. We disclose data to public authorities only when legally required.
6. International transfers between Turkiye and the EU
Alfatech operates in Turkiye and Bulgaria. Inquiries from the EU may be processed by our team in Turkiye. Turkiye does not have an EU adequacy decision, so we protect such transfers with the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses and appropriate security measures.

- Customer and project data: for the duration of the business relationship and warranty period; accounting and tax records for the periods required by law (up to 10 years).
