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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

    • 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

weekli.de operates in the retail and media sectors, providing a digital service that aggregates and distributes retail brochures and offers. Its business model likely relies on advertising revenue and affiliate marketing through partnerships with major German retailers and media groups. The platform targets a broad consumer base interested in discounts and shopping deals, leveraging mobile apps to increase reach. The partnership ecosystem includes prominent retailers and regional newspapers, enhancing content freshness and market penetration. The company demonstrates growth potential through digital transformation of traditional print brochures and expanding mobile presence. Strategic observations include the importance of maintaining strong retailer relationships and continuously improving user experience to stay competitive in the digital coupon and offer aggregation market.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced site-wide, use of a consent management platform for cookie compliance, and no visible exposure of sensitive data in the HTML content. Security headers are partially implemented but could be improved by adding explicit Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options headers. No vulnerable or outdated libraries were detected in the provided HTML. The site uses Google Tag Manager and Adsense scripts, which are industry standard but require ongoing monitoring for third-party risks. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies are not publicly visible, representing an area for improvement. Overall, the site aligns well with GDPR and privacy best practices, but could enhance security transparency and header implementation to further reduce risk.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce comprehensive security headers including CSP, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a clear vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response contact information to improve security transparency.
  3. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards and improve user experience for all users.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate supply chain risks.
  5. Expand visible contact information and business credentials to strengthen trust and credibility.

Technical notes

Notes

weekli.de uses a modern but somewhat traditional web technology stack centered on jQuery and jQuery UI for frontend interactions, supplemented by Google Tag Manager and Adsense for analytics and advertising. The site is mobile-optimized and includes structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO enhancement. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in loading speed and accessibility. The hosting provider is not explicitly identified, but domain uses GoDaddy name servers. The site employs a consent management platform (CookieFirst) to comply with privacy regulations. Technical debt appears low, but modernization opportunities include migrating to more modern frontend frameworks and enhancing security headers. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs effectively with room for incremental improvements.
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.
