Mind you that Switzerland is not in the EU.

Well, it's not in the Eurozone, but it's strict with the EU Privacy laws, in Europe it's only the Vatican out of the EU, only in the Eurozone for practical reasons.

I know that they're in the EEA though.

The Vaticane don't fullfit the conditions to be an EU member, they have not signed the Declaration of Human Rights, nor have they officially condemned torture and the death penalty.
