Data Integrity and Privacy Governance
At Ottoman Research Systems, our macroeconomic forecasting models rely on the precision of data. We treat the personal information of our institutional partners with the same rigor we apply to national economic indicators.
Information Classification Framework
We distinguish between the public macroeconomics data we analyze and the private navigational or contact data we collect from users.
Technical Logs
IP addresses, browser telemetry, and access timestamps required for system security.
Retained for 90 days to monitor for brute-force attempts on our forecasting models.
Restricted to internal network security audits only. Never shared with third-party advertisers.
Inquiry Metadata
Names, professional emails, and institutional affiliations provided via contact forms.
Held for the duration of the professional relationship or until a formal deletion request.
Primary use is for delivering economic indicators and response to research inquiries.
The Ethics of Information Handling
In an era dominated by rapid cycles of **macroeconomics** shifts, the confidentiality of our clients' interests is paramount. We do not engage in the sale, lease, or trade of personal data. Our operations are funded strictly through research commissions and subscription to our **forecasting models**, ensuring our revenue streams do not depend on data mining.
Data is encrypted at rest using AES-256 standards. Our servers located in Turkey comply with local KVKK regulations while maintaining alignment with international standards for research institutions. When you browse our latest **economic indicators**, your session is protected by TLS encryption, preventing man-in-the-middle interceptions.
"Precision in forecasting is impossible without a secure, ethical foundation. We guard your data with the same vigilance we guard our proprietary algorithms."
The Lifecycle of a Data Point
Ingestion & Minimization
When you subscribe to an update, we request only the essentials: your professional email and area of interest. We actively strip unnecessary metadata from incoming web requests to maintain a lean data profile.
Internal Processing
Data is moved from public-facing forms to our restricted research environment. Access is segmented: our econometrics team sees aggregated trends, while administrative staff handle only what is necessary for billing or correspondence.
Strategic Purging
We conduct bi-annual "Data Sanitation" sweeps. If an account has been inactive for 24 months and holds no active research contracts, the associated personal information is permanently expunged or anonymized.
Exercise Your Rights
You have the right to access, correct, or request the deletion of your personal data. Our compliance officer responds to all verified requests within 30 business days.
