Swiss FADP

The revised FADP in force since September 2023 works much like the GDPR. Swiss visitors' IP addresses are processed in the US in memory only and never stored, and Privatus Analytics acts as your processor.

Our reasoning

Transfers to the United States

Our DPA includes the Swiss amendments to the Standard Contractual Clauses. Transfers of Swiss personal data rely on these clauses.

Transparency

The FADP requires you to inform people when you collect personal data, including the countries it goes to.

Where the law is uncertain

We use Privatus Analytics to measure how our website is used. No cookies are used and no profiles are created. IP addresses are processed in the United States in memory only and are never stored. Minimized data is stored in the United States under the Standard Contractual Clauses as amended for Switzerland.

This is general information about how Privatus Analytics works and how we read the law. It is not legal advice. Laws and regulators' guidance change, and your obligations depend on your whole setup, so check your position with your own counsel.
