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

SMV Schätz mal Verlag GmbH operates the website schaetz-mal.de, a German e-commerce platform specializing in quiz and party games. The company offers a variety of colorful editions and products designed for entertainment and social gatherings, targeting a broad audience interested in fun and interactive games. The business is positioned as a niche publisher and retailer with a focus on engaging, family-friendly content. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with WooCommerce and uses modern plugins and themes such as Themify Shoppe and Borlabs Cookie for cookie consent management. The hosting appears to be provided by NetCologne, consistent with the German market focus. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented, though explicit security headers and policies are lacking. Tracking technologies include Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel, with consent denied by default, indicating some privacy awareness. Overall, the site is professional, well-branded, and trustworthy, though it would benefit from publishing clear privacy and security policies to enhance compliance and user trust.

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

7 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

    • 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

  2. Security headers

    Security headers are instructions your web server sends to every visitor’s browser. Missing ones leave visitors more exposed to attacks such as clickjacking and injected scripts.

    • High

      Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

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 targets consumers interested in quiz and party games, offering over 300 questions across multiple editions. The business model is direct retail via an online shop, leveraging WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality. Market positioning is niche but well-defined, focusing on entertaining and social gaming experiences. The company has been active since at least 2016, indicating stable operations. The website content and structured data reinforce the brand identity and product offerings. Partnerships or subsidiaries are not evident from the data. The use of modern marketing tools and tracking suggests an intent to optimize customer engagement and sales. Growth potential lies in expanding product lines and enhancing digital marketing efforts.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses a cookie consent plugin, which are positive security practices. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options represents an area for improvement. 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 for security incidents. Tracking scripts are present but consent is managed appropriately. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be strengthened by implementing additional headers, publishing security policies, and establishing a vulnerability disclosure process.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the main navigation.
  2. Implement and configure security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Create and publish a security policy including incident response contacts to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct regular security audits to maintain compliance and security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform with WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality, using Themify Shoppe theme and Themify Builder for layout. JavaScript libraries include jQuery and various plugins for cookie management and analytics integration. Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics are used for tracking, alongside Facebook Pixel placeholders. The site is hosted on NetCologne infrastructure, inferred from nameservers. Performance is moderate with some preloading and prefetching optimizations. Mobile optimization is good, and SEO is supported by Rank Math PRO plugin with structured data in JSON-LD format. The site uses Borlabs Cookie for GDPR-compliant cookie consent management. Overall, the technical stack is modern and appropriate for a small to medium e-commerce business, with room for improvement in security headers and accessibility.
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.
