Real cases — not a worst-case scenario

Switzerland · March 2025nDSG · Personal Liability

TX Group AG / 20 Minuten

CHF 1,030

Corporate lawyer fined for incomplete disclosure under nDSG Art. 25

First known Swiss case. Not the company — the individual.

Estonia · 2024GDPR · Data Breach

Apotheka Loyalty Program

€3 million

750,000 data subjects. Health data. No MFA, no monitoring.

Not a tech giant. A loyalty program — like many associations run.

Germany · 2025GDPR · Process Control

Vodafone GmbH

€45 million

No attack. Just insufficient internal data protection controls.

Missing documentation and processes are sufficient for a violation.

What you spend today

What Swiss SMEs currently spend on GDPR compliance

⏱Internal effort: CHF 8,000–20,000 / year (hours taken away from core business)
🤖No AI support: Manual. Slow. Expensive.

This process is not scalable. And it becomes less valuable every day.
