What Do Privacy Laws Say About Web Scraping ?

GDPR
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a regulation on the processing and protection of personal data in the European Union.
GDPR states that web scraping activities are subject to this regulation. Web scraping is the process of automatically collecting data from a website.
This process is considered as the collection and processing of personal data within the scope of GDPR. 
Therefore, those who want to collect data from websites covered by GDPR must first act in compliance with this regulation. 
GDPR introduces certain rules for the collection, processing, and storage of personal data. These rules include informing the data subject, obtaining explicit consent, limiting the processing of data, ensuring data security, and protecting the rights of data subjects.
Compliance with these rules enables web scraping activities to be legally performed under GDPR.
Those who want to do web scraping must first determine a clear and understandable policy on which data will be collected, how this data will be used and stored. 
In addition, they need to determine whether the data to be collected falls under the scope of personal data within GDPR and obtain the necessary permissions for processing this data. 
Compliance with GDPR is important for web scrapers because non-compliant data collection activities can lead to serious fines and legal issues.
KVKK
KVKK is a law in Turkey that regulates the processing, storage, and use of personal data. According to Article 6 of KVKK, obtaining explicit consent from the relevant individuals is required for the processing of personal data.
Web scraping is the process of automatically collecting information from websites. Therefore, web scraping is generally considered illegal under KVKK as explicit consent from the relevant individuals is required for the collection of personal data.
However, in some cases, under Article 5 of KVKK, obtaining explicit consent for the collection and use of personal data may not be necessary. For example, if the information on a website is generally considered to be publicly available, the collection and use of this information may not fall under the scope of KVKK.
Therefore, to determine the legality of web scraping, each situation must be evaluated individually. However, in general, compliance with the rules stated in the terms of use and privacy policy of the relevant website is required for web scraping to be in compliance with KVKK.
