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

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

Vélo-Store operates as a niche e-commerce business specializing in cycling products, leveraging a multi-domain strategy to serve various European markets. The company benefits from a clear brand identity and consistent user experience across its platforms. Its competitive advantage lies in offering a comprehensive product range with competitive pricing and fast delivery options. The business model focuses on direct online sales supported by strong digital marketing and customer engagement through newsletters and social media. Partnerships with related sports stores suggest a broader retail ecosystem. Growth indicators include active marketing campaigns and a well-maintained product catalog. The company’s operations are centralized under SPACEFOOT SAS, with no public subsidiaries, indicating a focused organizational structure.

Security posture

The website maintains a good security posture with mandatory HTTPS, modern security headers, and integration of Google reCAPTCHA to mitigate automated abuse. The use of a consent management platform aligns with GDPR requirements, enhancing privacy compliance. No signs of outdated or vulnerable libraries were found in the visible content. However, the absence of a publicly available security policy or incident response contact limits transparency in security governance. There is no evidence of a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file, which could improve community engagement and proactive vulnerability management. Overall, the site is secure for e-commerce transactions but could benefit from enhanced security communication and formalized incident response procedures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and controls.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information, such as a security@ or abuse@ email address.
  3. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance website accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards.
  5. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and marketing tools for security and privacy risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a Magento (OpenMage) e-commerce platform, utilizing a combination of modern web technologies including Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Google Ads, and marketing automation via Actito. The site uses asynchronous script loading and preloading of fonts to optimize performance. Mobile responsiveness is well addressed with separate search components for desktop and mobile. SEO is supported by structured data (JSON-LD) and meta tags. The site employs a consent management platform for GDPR compliance and integrates reCAPTCHA for bot mitigation. Performance is moderate with room for improvement in accessibility and potential technical debt from legacy Magento components. Hosting details are not explicitly identified but the presence of multiple country domains suggests a distributed or CDN-backed infrastructure.
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.
