About EV Advisor
EV Advisor is an independent electric vehicle advisor for the Norwegian market. We do not store user accounts or personal profiles on our servers.
When you use the service, we may process information you enter in the form (budget, driving habits, optional plate number) to provide recommendations. Processing follows the Norwegian Personal Data Act and GDPR.
What data we process
Form data is used to generate recommendations and may be shared with an external AI provider when AI analysis is enabled. We do not send names, email addresses, or payment information in the advisor form.
Your shortlist is stored locally in your browser (localStorage). Advisor preferences are stored in sessionStorage until you close the tab. Shared links may contain selected preferences in the URL. Optional plate lookup is sent to the Norwegian Public Roads Administration API when configured. The contact form sends your name, email, and message to us by email — we use them only to reply to your enquiry.
Cookies and local storage
We only use necessary cookies and local storage for language preference, your shortlist, advisor preferences, and your consent to the cookie notice.
No analytics or advertising cookies are implemented. On your first visit, a short notice appears at the bottom of the page where you can accept use and read more here.
Third-party services
We fetch public data from sources including OpenEV Data, SSB, Norges Bank, MET Norway, hvakosterstrommen.no, and OpenStreetMap (charging stations). NOBIL is used when an API key is configured.
These services receive technical requests from our server, not directly identifiable personal data from you, except plate numbers during lookup.
Your rights
You have the right to access, rectify, and delete personal data we process about you, and to lodge a complaint with the Norwegian Data Protection Authority (Datatilsynet). Since we do not create user accounts, we have no central database of your information — you can clear your browser's localStorage to remove your shortlist.
For privacy questions or to exercise your rights, use our contact page.
