Their platform integrates seamlessly with existing tech stacks, offering a smooth pre-order experience backed by FTC-compliant guarantees and trusted by over 100 global brands. Technically, the website is built on Webflow CMS with modern analytics and tracking tools, delivering fast performance and excellent mobile optimization.

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

4 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.

    • 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

  2. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

  3. 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.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

Purple Dot is positioned as a key player in the e-commerce SaaS market, focusing on pre-order management to help brands increase sell-through, reduce inventory risk, and improve customer satisfaction. Their business model is B2B SaaS, targeting medium-sized to large e-commerce brands globally. The company leverages AI and flexible commerce strategies to differentiate itself, supported by numerous case studies and testimonials that demonstrate measurable business impact. Their partnership ecosystem includes merchant portals and API integrations, facilitating rapid deployment and adoption. Growth indicators include a broad client base of 100+ global brands and a focus on operational efficiency for warehouse and tech teams. Strategic observations highlight Purple Dot's emphasis on customer experience, operational automation, and compliance, positioning it well for sustained market relevance.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security maturity level with enforced HTTPS and no exposed sensitive data. Use of reputable analytics and tracking services is evident, though the lack of a published security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure reduces transparency and preparedness perception. No security headers were explicitly detected in the HTML content, suggesting potential improvements in HTTP header configurations. GDPR compliance is partially addressed via a comprehensive privacy policy, but the absence of a cookie consent mechanism is a compliance gap. Overall, the security posture is solid but could benefit from enhanced documentation and technical controls to mitigate risks and improve stakeholder confidence.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and preparedness.
  2. Implement a cookie consent banner/mechanism to ensure GDPR and privacy compliance.
  3. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance HTTP security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Frame-Options.
  5. Monitor and resolve the missing WHOIS data issue to improve domain legitimacy and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern Webflow CMS platform, leveraging a robust CDN (Amazon CloudFront) for fast content delivery. It integrates multiple third-party analytics and marketing tools including Google Tag Manager, FullStory, Snitcher, and Leadsy AI, indicating a mature digital marketing infrastructure. The site is well-optimized for mobile devices and accessibility, with clean, valid HTML and CSS. Performance is fast with asynchronous script loading. However, there is no evidence of advanced frameworks or backend technologies from the HTML source. Technical risks are minimal but include the lack of explicit security headers and potential privacy compliance gaps due to missing cookie consent. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable e-commerce SaaS business.
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.
