3. Will my listing in the public directory be changed when I fill out a Swiss Post forwarding order?No, as this data is not subject to the Swiss Telecommunications Act. |
6. Can I have my telephone number listed in Directories publications but not in the public directory?No, this is unfortunately not possible as it is prohibited by law. |
10. Exactly which information is published in the public directory?Data in the public directory is clearly defined by the technical and administrative regulations of the Swiss Telecommunications Act. |
11. What happens with information in the public directory? Can Directories tell me which publications my data appears in?Telephone companies are required by law to give this data to anyone who wishes to create a directory with it. According to the law, they can then pass on your data. As a result, the recipients of this data and in which directories your data is published cannot be traced completely. However, you can ask the respective directory publisher directly (see next question). |
13. I want to guard myself against annoying advertising calls. Is this also possible in the public directory?Yes, an advertising block also applies in the public directory and is passed on to all directory publishers that use this data. Ignoring this block (e.g. by marketing companies) is punishable by law. You will find more information about advertising blocks here |
