¹The fed­er­al body that in­tro­duces a per­son­al iden­ti­fic­a­tion num­ber for the ad­min­is­tra­tion of its data file shall cre­ate a non-speak­ing num­ber that is used in its own area of re­spons­ib­il­ity. A non-speak­ing num­ber is any set of clear or clearly iden­ti­fi­able char­ac­ters al­loc­ated to each per­son re­gistered in a data file that does not per­mit any con­clu­sions to be drawn as to the per­son to which it relates.

²The use of the per­son­al iden­ti­fic­a­tion num­ber by oth­er fed­er­al or can­ton­al bod­ies or by private in­di­vidu­als must be ap­proved by the fed­er­al body con­cerned.

³The ap­prov­al may be gran­ted if there is a close con­nec­tion between the planned data pro­cessing and the pro­cessing for which the per­son­al iden­ti­fic­a­tion num­ber has been cre­ated.

⁴In ad­di­tion, the use of the AHV num­ber is reg­u­lated by the AHV le­gis­la­tion.
