Chapter 6
Swiss FADP Article 40: Private law activities by federal bodies
If a federal body acts under private law, the provisions on data processing by private persons apply.
Switzerland enacts in German, French and Italian. This is Fedlex's English translation, which Fedlex itself publishes without legal force. Where a word matters, the German, French or Italian text governs and this page does not. Every other instrument in this library is reproduced from its own authentic language text; this one is the exception and says so on every page.
