FAQ – Privacy for company websites

What should my website's privacy policy say?

The requirements for a privacy policy are specified by the GDPR and Swiss data protection law. For example, general information about data processing, such as the purpose, legal basis, duration of data processing, and any data transfers to third parties, must be provided. There must also be an indication of the rights of website users. The information must be precise, transparent and in plain language.
When does a website need a privacy policy?

A privacy policy is required whenever personal data is collected or processed. This includes not only names and e-mail addresses that are collected through a contact form, but also the IP address, which is often found in the server log files. This means that a website almost always needs a privacy policy.
Do I need a cookie banner and consent from website visitors?

The requirements in Switzerland are less strict than in the EU. However, if data of EU citizens are processed, it is quite possible that the requirements of the GDPR also apply to Swiss companies. In addition, there are other legal requirements within the EU, such as the e-Privacy Directive. Simply put, a cookie banner with opt-in functionality is required whenever the cookies and other technologies (e.g., pixels) used are not essential to the operation of the website. This includes tracking and analytics tools and the integration of social media plug-ins. In any case, information about the use of cookies must always be provided, whether in a banner, a privacy policy, or a cookie policy.
What must be included in the imprint?

In Switzerland, contact information, including the company’s full address, is sufficient. In Germany, the disclosure requirements are more extensive; for example, a registration number, if available, must also be provided. Depending on the professional group, additional requirements may apply.
