Public websites

The website at signicat.com is developed and maintained by Signicat for the purpose of marketing our products and services online. Signicat is the data controller for personal data collected through these websites.

A list of third parties involved in personal data processing will be made available upon request.

The processing is based on the visitor’s consent. Individuals who have their data processed by Signicat as a data controller, based on consent, have the following rights under GDPR:

  • the right to be informed (which is why we have published this policy)
  • the right to access data we hold about the individual
  • the right to have data rectified, if inaccurate
  • the right to withdraw consent, and to be forgotten
  • the right to have data blocked from further processing
  • the right to object to direct marketing

Individuals who want to exercise any of these rights can contact Signicat.

If our handling of personal data is not found to be satisfactory, and issues cannot be resolved with us directly, individuals can complain to the Norwegian Data Protection Authority (Datatilsynet).

Each area of personal data processing is described in detail below:

This third party will also collect a part of the visitor’s IP-address to determine the visitor’s approximate location, however not the entire address (we replace the last octet with a 0, before any data is sent to the third party, e.g. 192.168.1.0).
