Data Stewardship in the Age of Intelligence.
At Hittite Market Intelligence, we treat your organizational and personal data with the same rigor we apply to our global analytics. This policy outlines our commitment to transparency, security, and the ethical use of information.
Direct Privacy Inquiry
Responses are typically provided within two business days by our Istanbul-based compliance team.
The Parameters of Data Collection
We do not believe in mass surveillance or the indiscriminate harvesting of user signals. Our collection philosophy is rooted in the "Principle of Least Privilege." We gather only what is necessary to deliver precise market intelligence and ensure the stability of our platform.
Architectural precision mirrors our approach to data compartmentalization.
Direct Engagement Data
When you engage with our solutions or contact our consultants at Buyukdere Cd. 380, we collect identifiers such as your name, corporate email address, and professional telephone number (+90 212 391 6640). This information is used exclusively for professional correspondence and providing the requested data insights.
Operational Telemetry
To maintain the high-performance standards of our analytics platform, we automatically capture technical logs. This includes IP addresses, browser configurations, and timestamped activity logs. These data points are pseudonymized wherever possible and are used to prevent fraud and optimize system load.
Strategic Analytics Enrichment
Our core business involves synthesizing market intelligence from public and proprietary sources. While this usually concerns macro-economic trends and industry movements, any incidental personal data found in these datasets is handled under strict GDPR and KVKK (Turkish Personal Data Protection Law) guidelines.
Compliance Note
We never sell your contact information to third-party marketing brokers. Your data is used for intelligence, not for sale as a lead list.
