Medium risk. 6 critical or high findings in GDPR outside view and SSL/TLS.
PartnerStack is a mature SaaS company founded in 2012 that provides a leading partner ecosystem platform designed to help B2B SaaS companies recruit, engage, and scale their partner programs. The platform supports multiple partner types including affiliates, resellers, and influencers, and offers comprehensive features such as partner recruitment, activation, tracking, commission management, and optimization. The company positions itself as a top-rated solution with a large active partner network and a strong customer base of over 600 companies. Technically, the website is built on modern technologies including Webflow CMS, integrates multiple marketing and analytics tools such as Google Tag Manager, Segment, HubSpot, and Wistia for video content. The site is hosted and registered via Cloudflare, ensuring good performance and security. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced, security headers present, and use of reCAPTCHA on forms. However, explicit privacy policies and terms of service pages are not clearly found, which is a compliance gap. Contact information is primarily via forms with no direct emails or phone numbers visible. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and well-optimized for its target audience, but could improve privacy transparency and direct contact options.

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.

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
- GDPR Art. 12
- GDPR Art. 13
- NIST PT-5: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 PT-5: Privacy Notice

- High
Weak Protocols Supported
Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1
What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

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 notes
Notes
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.
