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

Candy POP is an e-commerce retail platform specializing in candies, snacks, and beverages sourced from the USA, Asia, and other countries, targeting consumers in Latvia and the Baltic region. The website demonstrates a modern technical infrastructure using Vue.js and Nuxt.js frameworks, with integrations for popular analytics and marketing platforms such as Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, TikTok Pixel, and Microsoft Clarity. The site is mobile-optimized and provides a cookie consent mechanism indicating awareness of privacy regulations. However, the absence of visible privacy policies, terms of service, and contact information limits transparency and trust. The WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, which restricts domain legitimacy verification. Overall, the website presents a professional retail presence but would benefit from enhanced compliance and security disclosures.

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

8 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

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

  2. Security headers

    • High

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

Business context

Business profile

Candy POP operates as a regional retail e-commerce business with multiple country-specific domains indicating expansion or presence in Lithuania, Estonia, Poland, and Finland. The business model focuses on selling imported confectionery and related products, supported by loyalty programs and gift coupons. The use of modern web technologies and marketing tools suggests a digitally mature operation. However, the lack of explicit company contact details and regulatory compliance documents may impact customer confidence and regulatory adherence. The company appears to target general consumers interested in unique and international sweets and snacks, positioning itself as a trendy and appealing brand in the Baltic retail market.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS and implements cookie consent, which are positive security and privacy practices. However, no explicit security headers were detected in the HTML content, and no security or incident response policies are published. The presence of multiple third-party tracking pixels increases the attack surface and privacy considerations. The absence of WHOIS data and contact information for security incidents reduces the ability to assess domain legitimacy and incident response readiness. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved by publishing privacy and security policies, implementing security headers, and providing clear contact channels for security issues.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the website footer or main navigation.
  2. Add clear company contact information including emails and phone numbers for customer support and security incident reporting.
  3. Implement and verify HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and tracking scripts to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to comply with standards and improve user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern JavaScript framework stack, primarily Vue.js with Nuxt.js for server-side rendering and routing. It uses Swiper.js for carousels and integrates multiple analytics and marketing pixels including Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, TikTok Pixel, Microsoft Clarity, and Ahrefs Analytics. The site is responsive and optimized for mobile devices. However, no CMS or hosting provider information was detected. Performance appears moderate based on resource preloading and image optimization techniques. Accessibility is basic with room for improvement. SEO is supported by canonical links, Open Graph tags, and meta descriptions. The lack of visible security headers and privacy documentation are technical gaps that should be addressed.
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.
