Risk levelMedium

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

The Kindness Curriculum website is an educational platform dedicated to promoting kindness through structured curriculum activities and resources. The business appears to be a small, focused entity founded around 2019, offering educational materials primarily targeting schools, teachers, and educational institutions. The website is built on WordPress with a modern tech stack including popular plugins for SEO, analytics, and content management. The technical infrastructure is solid with HTTPS enabled and a moderate performance profile. However, the site lacks explicit privacy and cookie policies, which impacts its privacy compliance score. Security posture is generally good but could be improved by enabling DNSSEC and adding security headers. Overall, the website is professional, well-branded, and trustworthy within its niche.

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

5 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 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

    • 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Google APIs

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  2. 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

The Kindness Curriculum occupies a niche market in education focused on social-emotional learning and kindness. Its partnership with the Kindness Factory suggests a collaborative ecosystem. The business model revolves around providing curriculum activities, educational offerings, and teacher resources, likely monetized through course offerings and downloadable materials. The website's clear navigation and structured content support user engagement. The absence of direct contact emails or phone numbers on the main page suggests a focus on digital engagement or contact via forms or other pages not included in the analyzed content.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a baseline security posture with HTTPS enabled and no visible exposure of sensitive data. The lack of DNSSEC and security headers indicates room for improvement. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are provided, which could hinder rapid response to security incidents. The use of reputable WordPress plugins and regular updates is implied but not confirmed. Privacy compliance is weak due to missing policies and consent mechanisms, which is a risk under GDPR and similar regulations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with explicit consent mechanisms.
  2. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Create a vulnerability disclosure policy and provide incident response contact information.
  5. Regularly audit and update all plugins and themes to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by WordPress with a suite of plugins including WPBakery Page Builder, Smart Slider 3, Slider Revolution, WooCommerce, Contact Form 7, and analytics tools like Google Analytics and MonsterInsights. The site uses modern fonts from Google Fonts and lazy loading for images. Performance is moderate with deferred and delayed JavaScript loading to optimize speed. Mobile optimization is good with responsive design elements. SEO is supported by Yoast SEO plugin and structured data in JSON-LD format. Hosting provider is not explicitly identified but DNS is managed via NS1 and Squarespace DNS servers. No major technical debt or outdated technologies detected.
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.
