We require a rental deposit and a liability deposit, both equal to the monthly rent, and CHF 100 as a key deposit.

Otherwise, we reserve the right to withhold the amount necessary to cover any damages or losses.

Alternatively, there is the option to take out liability insurance and household insurance with a Swiss insurance company, and the same goes for the rental deposit with a Swiss surety company (except Swisscaution).

10. Data Protection?

All personal data and documents collected from the tenant as part of the rental agreement are processed and protected in accordance with the provisions of the Swiss Data Protection Act (DSG).

Upon termination of the rental agreement, a cleaning fee will be charged for the final cleaning of the room.
