Kijiji · E-commerce · Canada
Medium risk. 6 critical or high findings in Security headers, GDPR outside view and 1 other check.
Kijiji is Canada's leading local classifieds marketplace, offering a platform for buying, selling, and trading a wide range of goods and services including cars, real estate, jobs, and vacation rentals. The website is well-positioned in the Canadian market as a trusted and popular destination for local commerce. It operates under the parent company Marktplaats BV, with a strong brand presence and consistent user experience. The platform targets Canadian consumers seeking convenient and localized classified ads, leveraging a business model based on advertising and premium listing services. Technically, Kijiji employs modern web technologies such as React and Next.js, supported by a robust advertising and analytics infrastructure including Google Ads, Facebook Pixel, TikTok Pixel, and PubMatic. The site demonstrates good performance and mobile optimization, with a clear navigation structure and SEO-friendly metadata. Privacy and cookie policies are comprehensive and prominently linked, indicating a mature approach to user data protection and compliance. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and integrates multiple security best practices, although explicit security headers were not fully verifiable in the HTML snapshot. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, the absence of a public WHOIS record suggests domain privacy protection, which is common for commercial entities but limits direct registrant verification. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information was found, representing an area for potential improvement. Overall, Kijiji presents a low-risk profile with a strong market position and professional digital presence. Strategic recommendations include enhancing transparency around security policies and incident response, verifying security headers, and considering a public vulnerability disclosure channel to further build trust and security maturity.
Scanned
NIS2 Art. 21(2)
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.

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.
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.

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.
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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Automated reading of the public site. Ratings are indicative.
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.
