The plaintiff in any legal proceedings may specifically request that the personal data be corrected or destroyed, or that its disclosure to third parties be prohibited. 2 In the event that the accuracy or inaccuracy of personal data cannot be established, the plaintiff may request that the particular data be marked accordingly. 3 The plaintiff may request the notification of third parties or publication of the judgement relating to the data or of the correction, destruction, prohibition of communication, or the marking of the data as to its litigious character. 4 The court shall rule on matters relating to the assertion of the right to information in a simple and rapid procedure.5 4 SR  5 Version in accordance with Annex Section 13 of the Jurisdiction Act 24 March 2000, in force since 1st January 2001 (SR ). 5
