(the now deleted parent wrote that the Data Retention Directive is an EU directive and that Norway is not part of the EU)
That doesn't seem to stop them. 2nd paragraph of the translated WP article:
In Norway DLD was adopted by the Parliament on 4 April 2011 . It was scheduled to take effect on 1 April 2012, but has been postponed several times. Ministry of Transport are now looking for that storage requirement comes into force on 1 January 2015.
Datalagringsdirektivet is not applicable for most providers in Norway, only the big carriers like Telenor, Telia-Sonera/Netcom and Tele2. The practical rule is that if you have a ASN-number (Data Center) and you provide the relevant services, then you need to follow it. The email service I work for, Runbox, is not. Probably not Jotta either.
