Here is the honest situation. Switzerland's revised Federal Act on Data Protection, the nFADP, modernised Swiss data protection and moved it closer to the GDPR, with its own distinctive rules. It broadens the duty to inform, expands sensitive data, adds privacy by design and by default, requires records of processing, DPIAs for high-risk processing, and prompt breach notification to the Federal Commissioner, and it can hold individuals personally liable in certain cases. An organization that assumed Swiss law was unchanged, or that GDPR compliance covers it automatically, is exactly where organizations fall short.
This Kit removes the guesswork. It is the revised FADP written as adopt-ready controls you personalize in a weekend, with the evidence the Commissioner examines.
What you get, the moment you buy
Grounded in Switzerland's revised Federal Act on Data Protection, with the processing principles, the duty to inform, sensitive data, records of processing, privacy by design, DPIAs, cross-border transfers, data security and breach notification to the Commissioner called out. Editable Word and Excel files.
What one control looks like
This is confirming application of the nFADP, where compliance begins. All 18 are built to this depth.
Why this is not another template pack
- The evidence is the point. An obligation you cannot evidence is a risk, and here it can be a personal one. This tells you what the Commissioner examines and where organizations fall short, for every obligation.
- Duty to inform, DPIAs and breach built in. The broadened duty to inform, DPIAs and prompt breach notification are written into the controls, the substance the nFADP requires.
- Built on a mapped compliance corpus, not one person's opinion, from a graph of thousands of controls across standards.
- It compounds. The nFADP aligns closely with the GDPR, so this work extends your European data protection program to Switzerland.
Who buys this
Organizations processing personal data of people in Switzerland and their data protection, legal and security leads. Whether it is a first alignment or extending a GDPR program, you save weeks and walk in with the Swiss-specific obligations structured.
Common questions
Is it really editable? Yes. Word and Excel files you own and adapt. No portal, no subscription.
Does my GDPR program cover Switzerland? Not automatically. The nFADP has its own rules, including personal liability in some cases. This Kit covers the Swiss-specific obligations.
Does it cover breach notification? Yes. Notifying the Federal Commissioner as soon as possible for high-risk breaches is built as a control.
Is this legal advice? No. It is an implementation toolkit grounded in the revised FADP. For a specific matter consult counsel; this gets your controls and evidence in order fast.
