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

The website www.kaufland.sk represents Kaufland Marketplace GmbH, a large retail e-commerce marketplace operating in Slovakia. The company provides an online platform for retail products, targeting a general consumer audience. The website is currently inaccessible due to a Cloudflare Web Application Firewall (WAF) challenge page requiring CAPTCHA verification, which limits the ability to fully analyze the site's content and features. The visible business information indicates a legitimate and established company with official registration and VAT details provided in the footer. From a technical perspective, the site uses Cloudflare services including Turnstile CAPTCHA for bot mitigation and security. However, no metadata, structured data, or visible security headers were detected in the provided HTML content. The lack of visible privacy, cookie, or terms of service policies suggests incomplete compliance with common privacy and security best practices. The site’s performance, accessibility, and SEO optimization cannot be assessed due to the blocked content. Security posture is partially supported by Cloudflare's WAF and CAPTCHA, but the absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms reduces transparency and trust. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected, but the inability to access the full site content limits this assessment. Overall, the site demonstrates moderate trustworthiness based on company information but scores low on content quality and privacy compliance due to the blocking and missing policies.

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. 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

    • 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. 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"

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

Kaufland Marketplace GmbH operates a large-scale retail e-commerce platform serving the Slovak market. The business model is a marketplace connecting sellers and buyers, leveraging the Kaufland brand. The company is registered in Germany with a strong presence in Central Europe. The target customers are general retail consumers seeking a variety of products online. The company benefits from brand recognition and a structured corporate setup with named directors. No direct information on revenue streams or partnerships was found in the provided content. The use of Cloudflare indicates investment in security infrastructure. The lack of visible marketing or analytics tools suggests a focus on core marketplace functionality rather than aggressive digital marketing in the analyzed content.

Security posture

The website employs Cloudflare's security services including a Web Application Firewall and Turnstile CAPTCHA to mitigate automated attacks and bots. This is a positive security measure indicating awareness of common threats. However, the absence of visible security headers, privacy policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure statements limits transparency and compliance with best practices. No forms or user input fields were detected except hidden CAPTCHA fields, reducing attack surface. The site uses HTTPS as implied by Cloudflare usage but SSL configuration details are unknown. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be improved by publishing clear security and privacy policies, implementing security headers, and providing incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies clearly accessible on the website.
  2. Implement and expose security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Provide clear incident response and vulnerability disclosure contacts to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Enhance website accessibility, SEO, and mobile optimization once the WAF challenge is resolved.
  5. Regularly audit and update security configurations and ensure compliance with GDPR and other relevant regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is protected by Cloudflare services including a WAF and Turnstile CAPTCHA, indicating a modern approach to security and bot mitigation. The HTML content is minimal and primarily serves a security challenge page, preventing analysis of the underlying CMS or platform. No metadata, Open Graph tags, or structured data were found, which limits SEO and social media integration. The hosting provider is Cloudflare, which provides CDN and security services. Performance and mobile optimization cannot be assessed due to blocked content. The site lacks visible forms or data collection fields beyond CAPTCHA, reducing complexity but also limiting user interaction analysis.
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.
