Document background
The Cookie Notice for GDPR is an essential compliance document for any organization operating a website that serves users in Switzerland and the European Economic Area. This notice has become increasingly important following Switzerland's alignment of its data protection laws with GDPR standards and the implementation of the revised Swiss Federal Data Protection Act. The document serves as a transparent communication tool between the organization and its website users, explaining how cookies are deployed, what data is collected, and how users can control their cookie preferences. It must be easily accessible on the website and should be updated regularly to reflect any changes in cookie usage or relevant legislation. Organizations typically implement this notice alongside a cookie consent management system to ensure compliant cookie deployment.
