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

fairplaid.org is a German crowdfunding platform specializing in sports projects, enabling sports clubs and athletes to raise funds for their initiatives. The platform has been operational since 2012, indicating a mature presence in its niche market. The website is well designed with good content relevance and user experience, targeting sports organizations and individuals in Germany. The technical infrastructure leverages modern JavaScript frameworks and integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools while maintaining user privacy through cookie consent and IP anonymization. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and domain registration protections in place, though improvements such as enabling DNSSEC and adding security headers could enhance resilience. Privacy compliance is strong with a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism, but the absence of terms of service and explicit security policies is noted. Overall, the site demonstrates a professional and trustworthy online presence with moderate to good technical and security maturity.

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

5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Security headers

    Security headers are instructions your web server sends to every visitor’s browser. Missing ones leave visitors more exposed to attacks such as clickjacking and injected scripts.

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…
  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

  3. 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
  4. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

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

fairplaid operates in the crowdfunding sector with a focus on sports-related projects, serving a specialized market segment in Germany. Its business model revolves around providing a platform technology for fundraising, likely monetized through service fees or commissions. The company benefits from a consistent brand and a decade-long domain history, suggesting stability. The integration of advanced marketing and analytics tools indicates a data-driven approach to customer engagement. However, the lack of visible contact information and formal legal documents like terms of service may limit transparency. The platform's partnerships and ecosystem are not explicitly detailed, but the use of third-party services like HubSpot and Chatbase suggests a modern digital marketing strategy. Growth potential exists within the sports community crowdfunding niche, supported by a clear value proposition.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and employs multiple analytics and marketing scripts with privacy-conscious configurations such as IP anonymization. Cookie consent is implemented via Klaro, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers like Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options represents areas for improvement. No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are published, which could hinder transparency and responsiveness in case of security events. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. Overall, the security posture is moderate, balancing good practices with some gaps in advanced protections and formal security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and preparedness.
  4. Add a terms of service page to clarify user rights and platform rules.
  5. Consider establishing a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern JavaScript stack with React components and integrates several third-party services including Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, Hotjar, HubSpot, and Chatbase AI chatbot. The platform is built on Colligent Crowdfunding Technology, indicating a specialized backend solution. The site is mobile optimized and includes accessibility features such as Eye-Able assistive tools. Performance is moderate, with preloading of scripts and CSS assets. DNS is managed via domaincontrol.com nameservers, typical for domains registered via GoDaddy. No CMS was explicitly detected. The site lacks DNSSEC and some security headers, representing technical debt in security hardening. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and functional but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and formal documentation.
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.
