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

Throne is a well-established technology platform founded in 1998 that provides a privacy-first gifting solution tailored for content creators. The platform enables creators to curate wishlists and receive gifts from fans without exposing personal information, positioning itself as a leading gifting platform with over 750,000 creators globally. The website demonstrates good branding consistency and trust signals, including integration with Trustpilot and Product Hunt, enhancing its market credibility. Technically, the website leverages modern web technologies such as Webflow CMS, Google Tag Manager, and OneTrust for cookie consent, hosted on Vercel infrastructure ensuring fast performance and good mobile optimization. The technical implementation is robust with HTTPS enforced and clientTransferProhibited domain status, although DNSSEC is not enabled. The site includes multiple tracking and advertising scripts primarily from Google and Trustpilot, indicating moderate user tracking. From a security perspective, the site benefits from strong SSL configuration and basic security best practices but lacks explicit security headers and published security policies or incident response contacts. No vulnerabilities or suspicious patterns were detected, and the domain registration is consistent and long-standing, supporting the legitimacy of the business. Privacy compliance is partial, with cookie consent present but no visible privacy policy or terms of service on the landing page. Overall, Throne presents a professional, secure, and privacy-conscious platform with room for improvement in transparency around privacy policies, terms of service, and security disclosures. Strategic enhancements in these areas would further strengthen user trust and compliance 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.

Priority findings

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

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

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

Throne operates in the technology sector, focusing on the creator economy by providing a gifting platform that respects user privacy. Its competitive advantage lies in its privacy-first approach and broad adoption across multiple social platforms like Twitch, TikTok, and YouTube. The business model centers on enabling creators to monetize fan support through curated wishlists, likely generating revenue via platform fees or partnerships. The presence of partner stores and exchange platforms suggests an ecosystem approach. The company targets content creators globally, with users from over 80 countries, indicating strong international reach and growth potential. Trust indicators such as partner badges and third-party review integrations support its market position. However, the lack of explicit business contact information on the landing page may limit direct customer engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and domain status set to clientTransferProhibited, reducing risk of unauthorized domain transfers. The use of OneTrust for cookie consent indicates attention to privacy compliance. However, the absence of DNSSEC and missing security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represent areas for improvement. No incident response or security contact information is published, which could hinder timely vulnerability reporting and response. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by implementing additional HTTP security headers, enabling DNSSEC, and publishing a security policy and incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and verify HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the landing page.
  4. Add a security.txt file or dedicated vulnerability disclosure page with contact information for security issues.
  5. Provide clear and verified contact information including emails and phone numbers for general and security inquiries to enhance trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Webflow CMS and hosted on Vercel, leveraging modern front-end technologies and Google services for analytics and marketing. The site loads quickly and is optimized for mobile devices, with responsive design and accessibility considerations. The integration of OneTrust for cookie consent demonstrates compliance with privacy regulations. However, the site lacks some advanced security headers and DNSSEC, which are recommended for modern web security. The use of multiple Google tracking scripts indicates moderate user tracking, which should be balanced with privacy commitments. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and performant but can benefit from enhanced security configurations and improved transparency in privacy and security documentation.
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.
