Are telephone numbers private in Switzerland?

I wanted to ask, are phone numbers private in Switzerland or you can get info with name and address just like on eAutoindex where you type in the license plate and you get name and address?

I have cablecom land line, I wanted to sell something on Anibis but I wonder if I should put my home phone there if people can than get my address.

Re: Are telephone numbers private in Switzerland?

they are not private..

go to local.ch and put your phone number in and see what result ou get.

When you made the phone contract there should have been a selection to have it included in the listings or not.

Thanks for the page, I just did that and nothing came up on my number neither when I put my name. I don't remember which option I chose when I got the subscription, this is cablecom VOIP land lines if it makes any difference...

I wonder if there are any other pages similar to local.ch where there is more data...

Or I should just call cablecom and ask...

Re: Are telephone numbers private in Switzerland?

The main directory location is run by Swisscom, now called local.ch:

http://www.local.ch/en

Search.ch is voluntarily updated (I think).
Local.ch is automatically updated by the various network operators
