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

Elite Gymnastics is a UK-based e-commerce retailer specializing in gymnastics leotards and equipment. The company targets gymnastics enthusiasts and athletes across all ages, offering a range of products including leotards, handguards, chalk, and other gymnastics gear. The website is built on the Shopify platform, leveraging various third-party marketing and analytics tools such as Facebook Pixel and Klaviyo to enhance customer engagement and sales. The site demonstrates a professional design with good navigation and mobile optimization, supporting a positive user experience. Security measures include HTTPS enforcement and standard security headers, although explicit privacy and cookie policies are not clearly presented on the homepage. WHOIS data for the domain is unavailable due to querying the subdomain rather than the registered domain, which slightly impacts domain trustworthiness. Overall, the website is functional, secure, and credible for its niche retail market.

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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

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 business operates in a niche retail sector focused on gymnastics apparel and equipment within the UK market. Its e-commerce model is supported by Shopify, enabling streamlined product management and checkout processes. The presence of marketing tools like Klaviyo and Doofinder indicates an emphasis on customer acquisition and retention. The company maintains direct contact channels including a phone number and a contact page, enhancing customer trust. However, the lack of visible privacy and cookie policies may affect compliance perception. The domain registration inconsistency suggests a need for better domain management. The company appears to be a small-sized retailer with a focused product offering and a localized market presence.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and includes several security headers, indicating a good baseline security posture. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Forms appear to be secured by Shopify's default mechanisms. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response information, or vulnerability disclosure reduces transparency and preparedness perception. The use of multiple third-party scripts introduces potential risk vectors that should be regularly audited. Overall, the security posture is solid but could be improved with enhanced transparency and compliance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish clear and accessible privacy and cookie policies linked in the website footer.
  2. Implement a GDPR-compliant cookie consent banner to inform users and obtain consent.
  3. Create and publish a security policy and incident response page to improve transparency.
  4. Add a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosures and improve security posture.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party scripts to mitigate potential security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Shopify, utilizing a modern tech stack including jQuery, Google Fonts, and various marketing and analytics integrations such as Facebook Pixel and Klaviyo. The site uses SEO Manager for metadata management and Doofinder for enhanced search functionality. Hosting is provided by Shopify's CDN, ensuring reliable performance and HTTPS support. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. Performance is moderate, with room for improvement in loading speed and accessibility compliance. The technical implementation is solid for an e-commerce retailer but could benefit from enhanced privacy and security features.
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.
