Security score

77/100

Risk levelLow

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

Sanctuary Bathrooms is a UK-based e-commerce retailer specializing in luxury modern and traditional bathroom supplies. The company positions itself as a leading supplier in the UK market, offering branded bathroom products with discounts and free delivery over £500. The website is professionally designed with good content quality and consistent branding, targeting UK consumers interested in high-end bathroom products. Technically, the site uses modern frameworks such as Bootstrap 5 and integrates multiple marketing and analytics tools including Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, FullStory, and Klaviyo. The site is mobile optimized and performs moderately well. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented, but lacks explicit security headers and published privacy or terms policies. WHOIS data is unavailable due to domain registration errors, which raises concerns about domain legitimacy, although the website content itself appears professional and trustworthy. Overall, the site demonstrates a solid business presence but would benefit from improved transparency and security practices.

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

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  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.

    • 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

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

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

Sanctuary Bathrooms operates in the retail sector focusing on luxury bathroom products in the UK. Its business model is primarily e-commerce retail with an emphasis on branded products and customer incentives such as discounts and free delivery. The company targets homeowners and renovators seeking premium bathroom solutions. The website integrates multiple marketing and tracking technologies to support customer engagement and sales. Despite the lack of WHOIS data, the site shows signs of a medium-sized business with consistent branding and trust signals like Feefo reviews. There is no evidence of parent or subsidiary companies. The absence of explicit contact details and privacy policies suggests areas for operational improvement. The marketing ecosystem includes major ad networks and retargeting services, indicating active customer acquisition strategies.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS with a good SSL configuration, ensuring encrypted communications. It employs cookie consent mechanisms and sets Google Analytics consent to denied by default, reflecting some privacy awareness. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces the overall security posture. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The site uses multiple third-party scripts which require ongoing monitoring for security risks. The lack of a published privacy policy, terms of service, security policy, or incident response contact channels indicates gaps in compliance and incident readiness. The WHOIS domain registration error is a concern for domain legitimacy and trust. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could be significantly improved by adding security headers, publishing policies, and establishing clear incident response procedures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the website footer.
  2. Implement and configure standard security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add explicit contact information including company emails and phone numbers for customer and security incident reporting.
  4. Establish and publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and incident response.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to mitigate potential security vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern front-end framework (Bootstrap 5) and integrates multiple third-party marketing and analytics tools such as Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, FullStory, Klaviyo, and Fixtuur SDK. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good SEO meta tags including Open Graph and Twitter cards. Performance is moderate with preloading of fonts and images. The CMS or hosting provider is not explicitly identified, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. No critical technical errors or broken elements were detected. However, the absence of explicit security headers and privacy policies indicates technical debt in security and compliance areas. The WHOIS domain registration error suggests a possible misconfiguration or use of a subdomain rather than a fully registered domain, which could impact DNS and hosting reliability.
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.
