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

Just Use They is a small, niche informational website advocating for the respectful use of gender-neutral singular pronouns 'they/them/their' when pronouns are unknown. The site is simple, content-focused, and supported by an open source community on GitHub. It targets a general audience interested in inclusivity and respectful language. Technically, the site uses basic HTML, CSS, and JavaScript with Google PageSpeed optimizations, delivering fast performance and good mobile responsiveness. However, it lacks advanced security headers and privacy policies, and no contact information is provided. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain is unusual and slightly reduces trustworthiness, though the website content and open source presence support legitimacy. Overall, the site is safe, educational, and well-structured but could improve in privacy compliance and security posture.

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

7 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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 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

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 as an advocacy and educational platform without commercial transactions or user data collection. Its business model is informational, relying on community contributions via GitHub. The market positioning is niche, focusing on inclusivity and respectful pronoun usage. There are no indications of revenue streams or partnerships beyond links to related informational sites. The target audience is broad, including individuals unfamiliar with gender-neutral pronouns. The lack of formal business information or contact details limits business credibility but aligns with the site's non-commercial nature.

Security posture

Security maturity is basic; the site uses HTTPS (assumed from URL), but no security headers or policies are detected. There are no forms or inputs, reducing attack surface. The absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps with GDPR and other regulations. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided. The lack of WHOIS data raises minor concerns about domain registration transparency. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a static informational site but should be enhanced if expanded.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce HTTPS with strong TLS configuration and verify SSL certificate validity.
  2. Add standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish a privacy policy and cookie policy to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  4. Provide clear contact information including an email for security incident reporting and general inquiries.
  5. Monitor domain registration status and ensure WHOIS data is accurate and publicly available to enhance legitimacy.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built with simple, clean HTML5 and CSS, supplemented by a JavaScript snippet for Google PageSpeed optimizations. No CMS or complex frameworks are detected, indicating low technical debt and ease of maintenance. Performance is fast with good mobile optimization. SEO is supported by appropriate meta tags and Open Graph data. Accessibility is basic but sufficient for the content type. The lack of analytics or tracking scripts suggests minimal user data collection, enhancing privacy. Hosting provider and infrastructure details are not available from the provided data.
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.
