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

PetShop.lv is a Latvian-based e-commerce retailer specializing in pet products including veterinary pharmacy items, pet food, accessories, and grooming supplies. The company operates under the legal entity SIA "Vet Pro" and has been active since 2010, serving primarily the Latvian and Baltic pet owner market. The website offers a broad product catalog with promotions and free delivery, positioning itself as a trusted regional pet supply store. Technically, the website employs modern tracking and analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and Facebook Pixel to monitor user behavior and marketing effectiveness. The site is well-structured with good mobile optimization and SEO practices, though some accessibility features could be enhanced. The absence of visible CMS or hosting provider details limits deeper infrastructure insights. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and implements cookie consent mechanisms aligned with GDPR requirements. However, no explicit security headers were detected in the HTML content, and no published security or incident response policies were found. The WHOIS data was unavailable due to query limits, restricting domain registration verification and trust analysis. Overall, the security posture is moderate with room for improvement in headers and transparency. The overall risk is moderate; the business appears legitimate and professional with clear contact information and privacy compliance. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing security policies, and improving accessibility. These steps will strengthen trust and reduce potential vulnerabilities.

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

8 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

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

PetShop.lv operates in the retail sector focusing on pet products and veterinary supplies. Its competitive advantage lies in a comprehensive product range, regional market focus, and established brand presence since 2010. The business model is direct-to-consumer e-commerce with additional services like free delivery and promotions. Target customers are pet owners in Latvia and neighboring Baltic countries. The company leverages partnerships with known brands and platforms such as kurpirkt.lv and salidzini.lv for marketing and sales. Revenue streams are primarily from online sales of pet food, accessories, and veterinary products. The presence of multiple product categories and brands indicates a diversified inventory strategy. Growth indicators include active marketing via social media and analytics tools. The company maintains a professional online presence with consistent branding and trust signals such as Visa Secure certification. No parent or subsidiary companies were identified, suggesting independent operation.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and GDPR-aligned cookie consent. The use of Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel indicates extensive user tracking, which is managed with user consent. However, the lack of security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. There is no published security policy or incident response contact, which limits transparency and preparedness communication. The absence of a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file suggests limited formal vulnerability management. Overall, the security posture is adequate for an e-commerce retailer but could be improved by adopting standard security headers, publishing policies, and establishing incident response channels.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance website accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern front-end stack with HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript. It integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and Facebook Pixel for data collection and user tracking. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design elements and structured navigation menus. Performance is moderate with some potential for optimization. No CMS or hosting provider information was detected, which limits insight into backend infrastructure. The site uses canonical URLs and meta tags for SEO. Cookie consent is implemented via a custom banner with granular options. The technical debt appears low, but security header implementation and accessibility improvements are recommended to reduce risks and enhance compliance.
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.
