GRC and data protection in Switzerland: structure and main requirements of the LPD

As is known, on September 25th, 2020, the Federal Data Protection Act (LPD) of Switzerland was enacted. 

The LPD - similarly to the GDPR - has a three levels structure: you can find on it chapters, sections and single articles. 

There are many clear correlations between the requirements of the Swiss LPD and the requirements of the European GDPR. These are:

• The purpose and field of application.
  
• The definition of personal data and processing.
  
• The figures involved (data subject, data controller and data processor).
  
• The applicable principles to the processing.
  
• The rights of the data subject.
  
• The privacy by design and by default.
  
• The obligations of data controllers and processors.
  
• The personal data protection.
  
• The role of the data protection consultant.
