Risk levelLow

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

Cheminées Poujoulat is a leading European company specializing in chimney conduits and roof outlet solutions for heating appliances such as stoves, inserts, and boilers. The website presents a professional and consistent brand image, targeting heating professionals and end-users in Europe, particularly France. The business model focuses on manufacturing and distributing chimney-related products, positioning itself as a market leader in the energy sector. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and Cookiebot for consent management, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. The site is mobile-optimized and uses HTTPS, ensuring secure communications. However, the absence of WHOIS data and registrant information raises concerns about domain legitimacy. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and cookie consent, but lacks explicit security headers and published security policies. Privacy compliance is partial, with a cookie banner but no clear privacy or terms of service pages detected. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced transparency and security documentation.

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

  1. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

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

The company holds a strong market position as a European leader in chimney systems, serving a specialized niche in the energy sector. Its business model revolves around product manufacturing and distribution, targeting installers and heating appliance users. The website's integration of multiple marketing and analytics tools suggests active engagement in digital marketing and customer insights. The lack of visible contact information and corporate registration details on the website limits direct customer engagement transparency. The company appears to leverage partnerships with major platforms like Google, Facebook, and LinkedIn for marketing and analytics. Growth indicators include extensive cookie and tracking implementations, suggesting ongoing efforts to optimize user experience and marketing effectiveness.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a baseline security posture with enforced HTTPS and a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR principles. However, the absence 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. The lack of published security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms limits transparency and preparedness for security incidents. The missing WHOIS data also detracts from domain trustworthiness. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could be significantly improved by implementing recommended headers, publishing security documentation, and providing clear incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the main website.
  2. Implement and configure security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Provide clear contact information including company emails and phone numbers for customer and security inquiries.
  4. Establish and publish a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure policy to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to improve domain legitimacy and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack with Google Fonts, Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Pinterest tracking, Matomo analytics, and Cookiebot for consent management. It integrates Inbenta SDKs for FAQ and search functionalities, indicating a focus on user support and content discoverability. The site is served over HTTPS, uses minified CSS and JavaScript for performance, and is mobile-optimized. Hosting provider details are not explicitly found, but Cloudflare services are implied by cookies and scripts. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. Accessibility features are basic but present. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, Open Graph tags, and canonical links. Technical debt appears low, but the absence of CMS identification suggests a custom or proprietary platform. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and explicit hosting transparency.
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.
