b.

if li­ab­il­ity lies with the hold­er of a trans­port­a­tion per­mit, be­fore the Swiss courts at the place where such per­mit hold­er is dom­i­ciled or elec­ted dom­i­cile.

3 Ac­tions to en­force the right of ac­cess dir­ec­ted against the con­trol­ler of a data­base may be brought be­fore the courts men­tioned in Art­icle 129 or be­fore the Swiss courts at the place where the data­base is man­aged or used.⁶⁵
