Fees

Fees

In future, the FDPIC will charge private data processors for a number of his services.

In addition to the activities already mentioned that are subject to fees (opinions on codes of conduct and data protection impact assessments, and approval of standard contractual clauses and binding corporate data protection rules), the FDPIC will also charge fees in the investigation procedure. In addition, he will charge private data processors for consultancy services. An hourly rate of between CHF150 and CHF250 will be charged depending on the position of the staff providing the service. Surcharges may apply if a service requires an extraordinary effort or is particularly difficult or urgent. The FDPIC may waive fees if the service is in the public interest or required little effort. The processing of complaints is free of charge.
