Webhuset: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Webhuset AS is a Norwegian hosting provider offering domain registration, web hosting, cloud servers (VPS), business email and Microsoft 365 subscriptions. It also offers a site builder and a WordPress hosting package with built-in AI tools. The website and customer service are in Norwegian, and the company describes itself as an independent Norwegian provider that has offered hosting since 1998 and runs its own infrastructure.

Webhuset AS is registered in Norway and states that it has no foreign owners. Its services run from data centres that the company owns in Oslo and Bergen, and customers who store personal data on the platform can sign a data processing agreement. Norway is a member of the European Economic Area, so the GDPR applies to these services. For a European organisation, this means a provider without a foreign parent company, EEA hosting in facilities the company operates itself, and a data processing agreement under the GDPR.
