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

Notino operates as a large-scale e-commerce retailer specializing in beauty and fragrance products, serving multiple European countries through localized domains. The website presents a professional and consistent brand image with a broad product portfolio and a clear value proposition emphasizing fast delivery and a wide selection. Technically, the site uses modern web technologies including Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing, and is optimized for mobile devices with responsive design elements. However, the absence of visible privacy, cookie, and terms of service policies on the landing page indicates gaps in compliance and transparency. Security posture is unclear due to missing security headers and lack of SSL/TLS configuration data in the provided content. The WHOIS data is unavailable or inaccessible, which limits the ability to fully verify domain legitimacy and ownership details. Overall, the site appears legitimate and professionally managed but would benefit from enhanced transparency and security measures.

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 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

    • 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

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

Notino's market positioning as a multi-country beauty and fragrance e-commerce retailer suggests a strong presence in the European retail sector. The business model focuses on direct online sales with a large catalog of products from numerous brands, targeting consumers interested in health and beauty. The lack of explicit business registration or contact details in the analyzed content limits deeper insights into corporate structure or revenue streams. The use of Google Tag Manager indicates investment in marketing and user analytics. The website's multi-lingual and multi-domain approach supports localized customer engagement. Strategic partnerships or subsidiaries are not explicitly identified in the content. Growth indicators include a large product portfolio and presence in at least eight countries, positioning Notino as a significant player in its niche.

Security posture

The current security posture assessment is limited by the absence of explicit security headers and SSL/TLS configuration details in the provided data. The site uses HTTPS as indicated by canonical URLs but no further security headers (e.g., Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options) are visible in the HTML snippet. No forms or input fields were detected that would require additional security scrutiny. The lack of privacy and cookie policies suggests potential compliance gaps with GDPR and other data protection regulations. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, indicating limited transparency in security governance. Overall, the security maturity appears basic, with recommendations to implement standard security headers, publish privacy and cookie policies, and establish clear incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies prominently on the website to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement and verify security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Ensure SSL/TLS certificates are properly configured and enforced site-wide to secure user data and communications.
  4. Provide clear and accessible contact information including support emails and phone numbers to improve business credibility and customer service.
  5. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy and publish a security.txt file to demonstrate commitment to security transparency and incident response readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website employs modern web standards including HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, with Google Tag Manager integrated for analytics and marketing purposes. The use of Roboto web fonts and responsive meta tags indicates attention to design and mobile optimization. However, no CMS or backend platform is explicitly identified. Performance appears moderate based on the presence of minified CSS and asynchronous script loading. Accessibility features are basic, with no ARIA roles or landmarks detected in the provided HTML snippet. SEO optimization is supported by canonical tags and alternate hreflang links for multi-language support. Technical risks include missing security headers and lack of visible privacy and cookie management mechanisms, which could impact compliance and user trust.
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.
