Switzerland - How can I prevent my ID card from being scanned / copied in a hotel during check in?

I would ask. Explain that you are uncomfortable with their keeping an image of your card and you would prefer them to record the information by hand. They might agree to do so.

If they don't, then it would probably be correct to infer that there is no regulation or law preventing them from taking an image: their lawyer knows Swiss law better than you ever will. And, of course, any legal challenge will take too long to resolve.

For what it's worth, when I checked in to my hotel last night, they typed the information from my ID into the computer without making a copy of it.
