We would also like to point out that there are no legal remedies in the USA for data subjects from Switzerland that would allow them to gain access to the data concerning them and to obtain their correction or deletion. There is no effective legal protection against general access rights of US authorities. We explicitly draw the data subject's attention to this legal and factual situation in order to make an appropriately informed decision to consent to the use of his data.
