Data Protection Law

Today, data protection is far more than a compliance issue – it reflects corporate responsibility and is a key factor in building trust with customers, employees, and business partners.

We advise companies, organisations, and individuals comprehensively on Swiss and European data protection law. In a connected world where data is processed, stored, and used across borders, we ensure that our clients are positioned securely and efficiently from a data protection perspective – with legal precision and strategic foresight.

Our focus is on providing legally sound, pragmatic, and practice-oriented guidance in the implementation of relevant data protection requirements – particularly under the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) and the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Our data protection services include, in particular:

• representing clients in proceedings before data protection authorities and in handling data subject access, erasure, or rectification requests.

• drafting and reviewing data protection policies, privacy policies, consent mechanisms, and data processing agreements;

• legal support in data processing activities, especially in cloud environments, HR contexts, public sector settings, and for professionals subject to statutory confidentiality obligations (such as attorneys, physicians, or fiduciaries), as well as in connection with intercompany and cross-border data transfers;

• advising on and supporting the management of data breaches, including the development of emergency procedures and incident response playbooks, as well as the implementation of information, notification, and reporting obligations;
