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

Handball-Store.pl is a specialized e-commerce platform focused on providing comprehensive handball equipment, apparel, and accessories primarily targeting handball players and enthusiasts in Poland and Europe. The website offers a wide range of products including shoes, balls, textiles, protective gear, and club equipment, positioning itself as a leading online store in its niche. The business appears to be recently established in 2023, with a consistent domain registration and a clear market focus. Technically, the website is built on Magento (OpenMage), leveraging modern web technologies and integrated with Google Analytics and Google Ads for marketing and performance tracking. Security measures include HTTPS with DNSSEC enabled and Google reCAPTCHA to mitigate bot traffic. However, explicit privacy and cookie policies are not found, though a consent management platform is implemented, indicating partial GDPR compliance. Contact information is not prominently displayed, which may affect user trust and support accessibility. Overall, the site demonstrates a good balance of content quality, technical implementation, and security posture, but could improve in privacy transparency and contact availability.

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

9 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

    • 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

  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 retail and e-commerce sector, specializing in handball sports equipment and apparel. It targets handball players, clubs, and fans, offering branded products from well-known manufacturers. The business model is direct online retail with multilingual sister sites serving various European markets, indicating a broad geographic reach. The presence of promotional codes and fast shipping options suggests a competitive approach to customer acquisition and retention. The company is relatively new, founded in 2023, and leverages digital marketing tools extensively. No parent or subsidiary companies are identified, but the network of related domains indicates a coordinated brand presence across Europe.

Security posture

The website maintains a solid security posture with HTTPS enforced and DNSSEC enabled, reducing risks of man-in-the-middle attacks and DNS spoofing. The use of Google reCAPTCHA helps prevent automated abuse. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap that could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The lack of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency and preparedness perception. GDPR compliance is partially addressed through consent management but lacks visible privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced with additional headers and policy disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish clear and accessible privacy and cookie policies to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Add security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen web security.
  3. Provide explicit contact information including emails and phone numbers for customer support and incident response.
  4. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and ensure all forms have secure input validation and protection.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Magento (OpenMage), a mature e-commerce platform, with a frontend optimized for desktop and mobile devices. It uses modern font loading techniques and asynchronous JavaScript for analytics and advertising scripts, contributing to moderate performance. SEO is supported by meta tags and hreflang attributes for multilingual support. The site integrates multiple Google services for analytics and advertising, as well as Actito for marketing automation. No major technical debt or deprecated technologies were detected. Hosting provider details are not explicit, but the presence of DNSSEC and SSL indicates a secure hosting environment. Opportunities exist to improve accessibility and add more comprehensive security headers.
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.
