Privacy Notice
Last updated: 15 November 2026
This notice explains how we handle the personal data of people who submit an introduction request through introandco.com or correspond with us. It is written to meet Turkish data protection law (KVKK, Law No. 6698) and, where they apply, the EU and UK GDPR.
1. Who we are
Intro & Co. is a service of C Global Advisory. The data controller is Çekirdek Eğitim Danışmanlığı Gıda Turizm ve Pazarlama Hiz. Ltd. Şti., registered office Ergenekon Mah., Dolapdere Cad. No:124/4B, 34373 Şişli, Istanbul, Türkiye, MERSIS No: 0233 0649 2820 0010. Contact: desk@introandco.com
2. What we collect
- Identity and contact: full name, work email, phone.
- Professional details: company, role, country.
- Your request: who you would like to meet and why, why the meeting would be worth their time, preferred format and timing, how you heard about us.
- Correspondence and process records: our emails and calls with you, the fee we quote, meeting dates.
- Billing and payment: only if you go ahead; the company and tax details needed for an invoice, and a record of payment.
- Technical records: when you submit the form, your IP address and the time, kept by our hosting provider for security and spam filtering.
We do not use cookies, advertising or visitor analytics. Fonts are served from our own site.
Information you give us about the person you would like to meet is used only to identify and approach that person. When we approach them, we tell them the request came through us and how they can exercise their own rights.
3. Why we use it
- To read, assess and answer your request;
- to call you, where needed, to understand it better;
- to pass a summary of your request to the person you want to meet, only as much as they need to decide;
- to quote our fee, enter into an engagement and arrange the meeting;
- for invoicing, accounting and legal record-keeping;
- to establish or defend legal claims;
- to protect the site and form from abuse and spam.
We do not send marketing messages and we never sell your data.
4. Legal bases
We rely on the following: steps taken at your request before entering into a contract, and performing that contract; compliance with our legal obligations; establishing, exercising or defending legal claims; and our legitimate interests, where they do not override your rights. These correspond to KVKK Article 5(2)(c), (ç), (e) and (f), and GDPR Article 6(1)(b), (c) and (f). The checkbox on the form confirms that you know a summary of your request will be shared with the person we approach.
5. Who receives it
- The person you want to meet: a summary of your request, only as much as they need to decide.
- Our service providers: Netlify, Inc. (United States) for hosting and form submissions; Google (Google Workspace) for email; our accountants and legal advisers.
- Public authorities: where the law requires it.
Netlify and Google may process data outside Türkiye and outside the UK and EEA. We transfer data only with the safeguards the law requires, such as standard contractual clauses.
6. How long we keep it
Requests that do not lead to an engagement are kept for up to 12 months and then deleted. For engagements, we keep records for the periods required by Turkish commercial and tax law (10 years).
7. Your rights
You can ask us to confirm whether we process your data and to give you a copy; to correct it; to delete it or restrict its use; to object to our use of it; to receive it in a portable format; and to tell those we shared it with about any correction or deletion. You can also claim compensation for damage caused by unlawful processing. You may complain to the Turkish Personal Data Protection Authority (KVKK) or, if you are in the UK or EU, to your local data protection authority.
8. How to contact us
Write to desk@introandco.com or to our registered office. We reply within 30 days, normally free of charge.
