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

Smash-Expert is an e-commerce retailer specializing in racket sports equipment including tennis, padel, badminton, squash, and table tennis. The website offers a wide range of products from multiple well-known brands, targeting sports enthusiasts and players in Spain. The business model focuses on online sales with fast delivery and secure payment options, positioning itself as a specialist in its niche market. Technically, the website is built on the Magento Open Source platform (OpenMage fork) and integrates modern marketing and analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Google Ads, AWIN affiliate tracking, and Actito marketing automation. The site is mobile-optimized with good navigation and SEO practices, although accessibility features are basic. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS, uses reCAPTCHA for bot protection, and implements a consent management platform for GDPR compliance. However, explicit privacy and terms of service policies are not found in the provided content, and security headers could be improved. The WHOIS data is inaccessible due to Red.es restrictions, limiting domain trust verification. Overall, the website presents a professional and trustworthy e-commerce platform with moderate risk due to limited transparency in domain registration and privacy policy absence. Strategic improvements in compliance documentation and security headers would enhance trust and security posture.

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

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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"

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

Smash-Expert operates in the retail and e-commerce sector, focusing on racket sports equipment. Its competitive advantage lies in specialization and a broad product catalog from reputable brands. The business targets sports players and enthusiasts primarily in Spain, leveraging online sales channels. Revenue streams are likely from direct product sales and affiliate marketing through AWIN. The presence of multiple country-specific domains suggests a multi-national approach within Europe. The partnership ecosystem includes marketing and affiliate networks, but no parent or subsidiary companies are identified. Growth indicators include active marketing and a comprehensive product offering.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and bot protection via reCAPTCHA. The use of a consent management platform indicates awareness of GDPR compliance. However, the absence of explicit privacy and cookie policies, lack of visible security headers like HSTS or CSP, and no incident response contact information indicate gaps in compliance and security readiness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The WHOIS data privacy limits domain trust verification, which is a common but notable compliance consideration.

Recommendations

  1. Publish and link comprehensive privacy and cookie policies prominently on the website.
  2. Implement and verify security headers such as HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and Content-Security-Policy.
  3. Provide clear contact information for security incidents and data protection inquiries.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and marketing tools for security and privacy compliance.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses Magento Open Source (OpenMage) as its CMS, supported by a modern tech stack including Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Google Ads, and affiliate tracking via AWIN. The site loads fonts and CSS efficiently with preload hints and uses asynchronous script loading for performance. Mobile optimization is good, and navigation is clear with extensive product categorization. However, accessibility is basic and could be improved. Hosting provider details are not evident from the HTML. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization in script management and caching strategies.
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.
