Medium risk. 5 critical or high findings in GDPR outside view and SSL/TLS.
Paddle is a leading merchant of record platform specializing in payments, tax, and subscription management for SaaS and digital product companies. With over 6,000 customers globally, Paddle offers a comprehensive suite of services including billing, fraud protection, tax compliance, and analytics, positioning itself as a critical partner for digital businesses aiming to scale efficiently. The company emphasizes its unique merchant of record model, which offloads tax and compliance liabilities from its customers, enhancing global conversion and reducing churn. Technically, Paddle leverages modern web technologies such as Next.js and React, hosted on Netlify, with a robust content management system via Prismic. The site demonstrates strong digital maturity with excellent mobile optimization, fast performance, and good SEO practices. Integration with multiple marketing and analytics tools like HubSpot, Google Analytics, and ProfitWell Metrics indicates a data-driven approach to business growth. From a security perspective, Paddle maintains a strong posture with comprehensive security headers, SSL with HSTS, and no known critical vulnerabilities. However, the absence of modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 or 1.3) is a notable gap. The company holds SOC 2 certification and provides a dedicated security portal, reflecting a commitment to data privacy and transparency. No direct contact emails or phone numbers are publicly listed, but support and developer resources are well structured. Overall, Paddle presents a high-trust, professional digital presence with a strong focus on compliance and customer success. Strategic improvements in TLS protocol support and enhanced public disclosure of incident response contacts could further strengthen its security and trust profile.
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.
5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.
These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.
GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy
What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently
GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage
What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes
GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies
What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit
Detected services: Google Analytics, LinkedIn, YouTube
What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy
TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.
SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak
What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

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.
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.
