Security systems and Swiss data protection compliance

CCTV and access control systems in Swiss commercial buildings are subject to data protection requirements under the revised Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (revDSG / nDSG), which came into force in September 2023. Key obligations for businesses operating CCTV systems in Switzerland include: – Signage: visible notices must inform people that CCTV is in operation – Purpose limitation: footage may only be used for the declared purpose (security) – Retention limits: CCTV recordings must generally be deleted within 72 hours unless required for an incident – Data processor agreements: if footage is monitored by a third party, a data processor agreement is required Tanance ensures all CCTV and access control installations comply with nDSG requirements. We provide a system documentation pack including data processing notes and signage specifications.

Frequently asked questions about access control and CCTV in Zurich

Do you install access control for single doors or full building systems?
Both. We install single-door access control for server rooms or meeting rooms, and multi-door systems for full building access management.
Can you integrate a new access control system with our existing building management system?
In most cases yes, depending on the existing system. We assess compatibility during the security survey and specify integration options in the proposal.
What are the data protection rules for CCTV in Swiss commercial buildings?
Under the Swiss nDSG, CCTV requires visible signage, a defined retention period (typically 72 hours) and documentation of purpose. We provide full compliance documentation with every installation.
Do you offer ongoing maintenance for security systems?
Yes. We offer annual maintenance agreements covering scheduled servicing, system health checks and priority response for reactive callouts.
Can you upgrade our existing CCTV system to HD or IP cameras?
Yes. We assess the existing infrastructure and propose an upgrade path. In many cases existing cabling can be reused, reducing the cost of upgrading to IP cameras.
How quickly can you respond to a security system fault?
For clients with a maintenance agreement, we target a response within 24 hours for security system faults. Emergency response is available for critical system failures.
