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

CoChces.cz is a Czech price comparison website operated by Mladá fronta, a.s., offering consumers a platform to search and compare prices for a wide range of products including electronics, home goods, and lifestyle items. The site positions itself as one of the fastest growing price comparison services in the Czech Republic, targeting local consumers seeking the best deals. The business model is primarily based on affiliate marketing and advertising revenue, leveraging partnerships with online shops. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including jQuery, Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, and Google Adsense, ensuring a responsive and user-friendly experience optimized for mobile devices. The site uses HTTPS with good SSL configuration, but lacks some security headers and explicit privacy and terms of service pages, which are areas for improvement. Security posture is moderate with no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data, but the absence of clear contact information for security incidents and vulnerability disclosure reduces transparency. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy, but could enhance compliance and security practices to strengthen user trust and regulatory adherence.

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

      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

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

The website operates in the e-commerce sector as a price comparison platform, serving Czech consumers. Its competitive advantage lies in its extensive product categories and integration with multiple shops, providing comprehensive price listings and product advice. Revenue streams likely include affiliate commissions and advertising. The target customer segment is broad, encompassing general consumers interested in electronics, home appliances, and lifestyle products. The site is part of Mladá fronta, a.s., a known media company, which adds credibility. Growth indicators include active content updates and advertising partnerships. The partnership ecosystem includes Google services and local advertising networks. Strategic observations suggest focusing on enhancing privacy and security transparency to maintain competitive positioning and comply with evolving regulations.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented. However, it lacks explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which are recommended to mitigate common web attacks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Compliance gaps include the absence of a privacy policy page and security incident contact information, which are important for GDPR and NIS2 compliance. Data protection practices appear basic, with standard tracking scripts used for analytics and advertising. Incident response readiness is unclear due to missing contact channels. The security culture could be improved by publishing vulnerability disclosure information and enhancing transparency. Overall, the site is secure for general use but should address compliance and security best practices to reduce risk.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a clear and accessible privacy policy page detailing data collection and user rights.
  3. Provide explicit contact information for security incidents and consider publishing a security.txt file.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to ensure privacy compliance and minimize user tracking.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack with jQuery and multiple Google services for analytics and advertising. It loads asynchronously many scripts to optimize performance. The site is mobile responsive and uses standard CSS and JavaScript files. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. Performance is moderate with some heavy ad scripts that may impact load times. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured navigation. Technical debt appears low, but improvements in security headers and privacy documentation are recommended to reduce technical risks.
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.
