Privacy (KVKK) and your data

This page summarizes which data we keep and why, where and for how long we store it, and who is responsible for the contents of your servers. The binding texts are on the Legal page; here are their practical consequences.

Passwords are stored as hashes only; the two-factor secret is stored encrypted. The full API key is shown only at creation; the database keeps its hash.

Where the data is

Account data and documents are kept on dor.net's own systems. Parties that process data for specific tasks:

  • Payments: card payments are collected through a licensed payment institution; your card details never reach dor.net.
  • Official documents: the accounting integrator (legal name, address, tax details, document lines); details in Invoices, e-Invoice and PDF.
  • Email and SMS: messaging providers for notifications and verification codes (address/number and message content).
  • Identity check (Türkiye): identity details are verified through an official registry query.

Beyond these, your personal data is not shared with third parties; requests from competent authorities are fulfilled only where legally required and are recorded.

How your documents are stored

  • Uploaded documents are not served from a public address; the file is reachable only through a path that checks authorization, by members of the organization that uploaded it and by the reviewing team.
  • The file of an approved or rejected document is deleted automatically 90 days after review. Only the type, date and outcome remain.
  • You can delete a pending or rejected document yourself.

You are responsible for server contents

  • dor.net does not back up your servers' disks and does not access their contents. Backups, updates and security configuration are your responsibility.
  • Reinstalling, deleting a server and cancelling a service wipe the disks irreversibly; disks of dedicated services cancelled for non-payment are wiped when the server returns to stock.
  • For regular backups copy off the server (rsync, restic, borg and the like) and test the restore.
  • You are the data controller for personal data you process on your servers; for your KVKK/GDPR obligations you can sign a data processing agreement with us if needed (support).

Your rights

To exercise your rights under Article 11 of the KVKK (access, correction, deletion, objection to processing), open a support ticket or write to hello@dor.net. Requests are answered within 30 days at the latest.

  • Closing the account: after deleting your servers and bringing the balance to zero, open a closure request. Accounting records are kept for the statutory period; other data is deleted.
  • Deleting documents: you can ask for reviewed documents to be deleted early without closing the account.
  • Data portability: you can request an export of your account data.

Security recommendations

  • Enable two-factor authentication.
  • Everyone signs in with their own account; remove leavers from the team.
  • Give API keys an expiry and revoke unused ones.
  • Disable password login on the server and set up a firewall (first steps).
