Today, private and government agencies collect many personal data about individuals every
day. Personal data; means any kind of information about the person whose identity is specific
or identifiable. Technology has evolved to allow individuals and institutions to share and
disseminate information worldwide. Personal Data Protection is a right of individuals that need
to be protected against unauthorized use of their data by other individuals or organizations. This
right has been taken under protection by amendment of Article 20 of the Constitution. In
addition, amendments were made to some other laws and finally, on 24 March 2016, the Law
No. 6698 on the Protection of Personal Data was adopted in the Turkish Grand National
Assembly. The law, regulates the procedures and principles to be followed by the obligations
of natural and legal persons, and imposes important provisions on all companies that process,
carry or store personal data. One of the sectors affected by the law is logistics. In this study, the
national and international legal regulations and the Law No. 6698 which are related to the
protection of personal data were examined. In the logistics sector, the effects of this law on
human resources practices, difficulties, causes and consequences were investigated with a
screening approach and in-depth interview methods. In the sector, a study on this subject has
not been found, in this respect it is thought that it will contribute to the literature and the sector.
