The "Swiss Federal Act on the Protection of the Swiss Cross" is a law designed to safeguard the use of the Swiss Cross, a national symbol of Switzerland. This act prevents unauthorized use of the emblem in commercial contexts, ensuring that it remains a representation of Swiss identity and values. Under this law, individuals and organizations must obtain permission to use the Swiss Cross for branding or promotional purposes. Violations can lead to legal consequences, reinforcing the importance of protecting national symbols and maintaining their integrity in public perception.
