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

Sveču Istaba is a Latvian-based small e-commerce business specializing in the retail of handcrafted and thematic candles, along with related accessories. The website is built on the Shopify platform, leveraging modern e-commerce technologies and integrations such as Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel for marketing and analytics. The business targets general consumers interested in candles that bring themes of love, light, and harmony into their homes. The market position is niche and local, focusing on quality and thematic product offerings. Technically, the website is well-structured, mobile-optimized, and uses secure HTTPS connections with appropriate security headers. However, explicit privacy and cookie policies are not found, and direct contact information like emails or phone numbers is missing, which could impact user trust and compliance. WHOIS data is unavailable due to query limits, limiting domain legitimacy assessment. Overall, the site presents a professional and trustworthy e-commerce presence with room for improvement in privacy compliance and contact transparency.

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.

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, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

The company operates in the retail e-commerce sector, focusing on candles and accessories with a thematic and handcrafted appeal. The business model is direct-to-consumer online sales via Shopify. The presence of social media channels on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok indicates active marketing and customer engagement efforts. The product catalog includes chakra candles, church candles, eco-material candles, and gift sets, indicating a diversified product range within the candle niche. The lack of detailed company registration or VAT information on the site suggests a small or sole proprietorship business. The website's use of Shopify and third-party marketing tools reflects a moderate digital maturity level. There is no evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries from the data provided.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security posture with HTTPS enforced and multiple security headers present, including Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security. The use of hCaptcha on forms adds protection against automated abuse. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a published security policy or incident response contacts limits transparency. There is no evidence of a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file. Overall, the site follows standard e-commerce security best practices but could enhance user trust by publishing more security-related information.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a clear and comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with consent mechanisms to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Add direct contact information such as company email addresses and phone numbers to facilitate customer support and compliance.
  3. Implement and publish a security policy and incident response contact details to enhance transparency and preparedness.
  4. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible security reporting.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and integrations to ensure no vulnerabilities or privacy issues arise from external dependencies.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Shopify using the Dawn theme, a modern and responsive framework optimized for e-commerce. It integrates multiple third-party scripts for analytics (Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel), marketing, and product customization (Printful, Parcely, Kaktus App). The site uses CDN hosting via Shopify, ensuring good global performance and availability. Accessibility features and SEO optimizations are present, including meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data for organization and website schema. The site loads asynchronously many scripts to improve performance. The technical implementation is solid with no visible errors or broken elements, but performance is moderate likely due to multiple external scripts. Mobile optimization and navigation clarity are good, supporting a positive user experience.
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.
