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

Greenpeace e. V. is a well-established non-profit environmental organization based in Germany, focused on climate protection, biodiversity, and peace advocacy. The website serves as a comprehensive platform for public education, activism, and fundraising, targeting environmentally conscious individuals and supporters. It maintains a strong market position as a leading environmental NGO with a large audience and consistent branding. Technically, the website is built on Drupal 10, leveraging modern web technologies and third-party tools such as Usercentrics for consent management and Google Tag Manager for analytics. Hosting is provided by Colt Technology Services, indicating a professional infrastructure. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with good SEO practices. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and consent management but lacks visible security headers and explicit security policies or incident response contacts. No vulnerabilities or suspicious content were detected. Privacy compliance is partial due to the absence of a clearly linked privacy policy and terms of service. Overall, Greenpeace.de presents a trustworthy, professional, and content-rich website with minor gaps in privacy and security transparency. Strategic improvements in these areas would enhance compliance and user trust.

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. 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 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

  2. 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

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

Greenpeace Germany operates as a non-profit entity with a focus on environmental protection and activism. Its business model relies on private donations and public engagement campaigns. The organization targets a broad audience including activists, environmentally aware citizens, and donors. The website supports multiple donation options and provides extensive educational content. Greenpeace maintains a strong partnership ecosystem visible through social media and related domains. The organization's long history since 1980 and large size underpin its market credibility and influence. The website's content and structure reflect a mature digital presence, supporting growth and outreach. The use of modern CMS and consent tools indicates ongoing digital maturity. However, the lack of explicit privacy and security policies suggests areas for operational enhancement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to strong security posture with HTTPS enforced and use of consent management for cookies. The absence of explicit security headers and a published security policy or incident response contact reduces overall security transparency. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The use of reputable third-party services like Google Tag Manager and Usercentrics is managed with consent mechanisms. There is no visible vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file, which is a recommended best practice for transparency and incident handling. The site would benefit from implementing security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web risks. Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved with enhanced transparency and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a clear and accessible privacy policy and terms of service on the website.
  2. Implement and configure security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add a security policy page and provide incident response contact information (e.g., security@greenpeace.de).
  4. Introduce a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to improve transparency and trust.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and consent management tools to ensure compliance and security.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 10, a modern and widely used CMS, indicating a solid technical foundation. It uses Usercentrics for cookie consent management, Google Tag Manager for analytics, and Visual Website Optimizer for A/B testing and optimization. The site employs SVG icons and responsive design techniques for accessibility and mobile optimization. Hosting is via Colt Technology Services, a reputable provider. Performance is moderate, with preloading of fonts and images optimized for various screen sizes. Accessibility features such as contrast switching and skip links are implemented. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. The technical stack is modern and well-integrated, though there is room for improvement in security headers and explicit privacy compliance 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.
