Model articles of association
It may be helpful to use the articles of association from other associations as a template when setting up an association. However, it is advisable to check them very carefully and to adapt them to the requirements and needs of the specific association. Model articles of association can be obtained from vitamin B’s administrative office.
Question
Do we need to amend our articles of association to comply with the new Federal Act on Data Protection?
Answer
We recommend that associations include an article on data protection the next time they revise their articles of association. This article regulates how the association handles data and how or in which cases, for example, the appropriate transfer of member data to other members is permitted. For support, the vitamin B model articles of association now include Article 13 on data protection, which contains sample formulations and comments: https://www.vitaminb-e.ch/tools/work-aids/
