0–100, higher is better. How it is calculated

BrandHouse.lv is an e-commerce retail outlet specializing in branded clothing and footwear, offering over 70 different brands primarily targeting families including men, women, and children. The company operates a Shopify-based online store with a showroom located in Riga, Latvia. Their market position is that of an outlet retailer providing affordable fashion options, supported by a strong social media presence on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. The website content is professional, well-structured, and localized primarily in Latvian with English support, reflecting a medium-sized retail business with a focus on customer experience and product variety. Technically, the website leverages Shopify's platform and associated technologies such as JavaScript, CSS, and the Stiletto theme. Hosting and CDN services are provided by Shopify, ensuring moderate performance and good mobile optimization. SEO and accessibility are adequately addressed, though some improvements could be made in accessibility compliance. The site uses modern security headers and enforces HTTPS, indicating a good security posture. However, the absence of a cookie consent banner and limited visible privacy compliance features suggest room for improvement in privacy practices. Security-wise, the site demonstrates good practices including HTTPS, security headers, and CAPTCHA-protected forms. No obvious vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The lack of a published vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file and absence of explicit incident response contacts are noted gaps. WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, limiting domain registration verification and trust analysis. Overall, BrandHouse.lv presents as a legitimate and professionally managed e-commerce retailer with a solid technical foundation and good security hygiene. Strategic recommendations include enhancing privacy compliance with cookie consent mechanisms, publishing comprehensive privacy and security policies, and improving transparency around incident response and domain registration details to strengthen trust and compliance.

This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.

GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.

Priority findings

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

Results by check

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.

How this score is calculated

The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Not counted

  • NIS2 outside view: Re-weights evidence from the TLS, email, DNS, network and hygiene checks, so counting it would count that evidence twice. Shown on its own.
  • OffSeq Observations: An AI reading of the site, useful context but not reproducible evidence. Shown on its own.

Findings that cap the score at 49

Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.

  • The certificate is not trusted by browsers
  • The website is not served over HTTPS
  • A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet
  • The page loads a script from a compromised source
  • The domain registration has expired
  • SPF authorises every server to send mail as the domain

Partial scans

When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Technical appendix

Business context

Business profile

BrandHouse.lv operates in the retail and e-commerce sectors, focusing on branded fashion outlets. Their competitive advantage lies in offering a wide range of over 70 brands at outlet prices, appealing to a broad family demographic. The business model is direct-to-consumer online retail supplemented by a physical showroom. Revenue streams are primarily from online sales and showroom purchases, with gift cards as an additional offering. Target customers are fashion-conscious individuals and families seeking affordable branded apparel. Growth indicators include active social media marketing and a well-maintained online presence. The partnership ecosystem includes Shopify as the platform provider and third-party services like Parcely for cart management. The company appears to maintain a focused market presence in Latvia with potential for regional expansion.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and secure form handling including CAPTCHA integration. No exposed sensitive information or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. However, the absence of a published security policy, vulnerability disclosure program, or security.txt file indicates limited transparency in security governance. Privacy compliance is partial, with a privacy policy present but lacking a cookie consent mechanism. Incident response readiness is unclear due to missing contact channels for security issues. Overall, the site is secure for typical e-commerce operations but would benefit from enhanced privacy and incident response disclosures to meet higher compliance standards such as GDPR and NIS2.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a visible cookie consent banner to comply with privacy regulations and improve user trust.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and terms of service policies on the main domain with clear language and accessibility.
  3. Establish and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet recognized standards and improve inclusivity.
  5. Provide explicit contact information for security incidents and data protection officer if applicable to strengthen incident response capabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Shopify platform using the Stiletto theme version 2.2.2, leveraging modern web technologies including JavaScript, CSS, and HTML5. Hosting is managed by Shopify's CDN infrastructure, providing moderate performance and good mobile responsiveness. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, Open Graph, and Twitter card metadata. Accessibility features are basic but present, with room for improvement. The site integrates third-party marketing and analytics tools such as Klaviyo and Facebook Pixel, enabling moderate user tracking. No critical technical debt or deprecated libraries were detected. Opportunities exist to enhance privacy compliance and security transparency through additional policy publications and consent mechanisms.
Standards and sources

Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
