The Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP): what applies beyond the GDPR
A customer in Zurich asks for access, and the answer is due within 30 days. What Swiss law governs differently from the GDPR and how you implement both together.
The revised Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) applies together with the Data Protection Ordinance since 1 September 2023. It covers all processing that has an effect in Switzerland, even without an office there, and differs from the GDPR on breach reports, access, the country list and sanctions.
The whitepaper explains scope and representative, the differences from the GDPR, information and records, data security with logging, cross-border disclosure, reports to the FDPIC, data subject rights and fines, with a 10-step plan and a practice example.
