Switzerland has the world's strictest data privacy laws, the FADP Law. The purpose of the FADP is to protect the privacy, interests and fundamental rights of data subjects. At the end of September 2020, after legislative process of almost four years, both chambers of the Swiss Parliament approved the revised Federal Act on Data Protection (revised FADP). The revised FADP includes numerous adaptations to the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), but retains its own basic concept and also deviates from the GDPR in various aspects. Examples of important changes in the revised FADP are: much stricter sanctions, extended duties to provide information, the duty to create a record of data processing activities, and the expansion of the data subject's rights.
