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

Whirlpool Norge operates as the Norwegian branch of the global Whirlpool Corporation, specializing in retailing household appliances such as washing machines, dryers, ovens, refrigerators, ventilators, and coffee machines. The website targets Norwegian consumers seeking quality home appliances and presents a professional and consistent brand image aligned with Whirlpool's global presence. The digital infrastructure incorporates modern tracking and analytics tools including Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and New Relic, alongside a cookie consent mechanism compliant with privacy regulations. However, explicit privacy policies and contact information are not readily visible in the provided content, which could be improved for transparency and compliance. Technically, the website demonstrates good performance and mobile optimization, with structured data implemented for SEO benefits. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent denying ad and analytics storage by default, though additional security headers and explicit security policies are absent. The absence of WHOIS data is due to registry privacy policies, but the website's professional presentation and association with a reputable global brand indicate high legitimacy. Overall, the website is well-constructed and trustworthy, though enhancements in privacy disclosures, contact transparency, and security documentation would further strengthen its compliance and user trust. No blocking or WAF challenges were detected, allowing full content accessibility and analysis.

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.

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

Whirlpool Norge holds a strong market position as a subsidiary of Whirlpool Corporation, focusing on retail distribution of household appliances in Norway. The business model centers on direct consumer sales supported by a digital presence that facilitates product discovery and brand engagement. The company leverages a multi-national brand reputation and targets a broad consumer segment interested in home appliance solutions. The website's use of advanced analytics and tracking tools suggests a data-driven approach to marketing and customer insights. However, the lack of visible direct contact details or detailed corporate information online may indicate a preference for centralized customer service channels or offline engagement. The partnership ecosystem includes digital asset management and tracking providers, but no explicit partner or subsidiary domains were identified. Growth indicators are not directly observable from the website content.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced site-wide and a cookie consent mechanism that defaults to denying ad and analytics storage, reflecting privacy-conscious design. The use of New Relic for performance monitoring indicates proactive operational oversight. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options represents an area for improvement. No security policy, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure programs are publicly available, which limits transparency and user confidence in security governance. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is solid but could benefit from enhanced documentation and header implementation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen browser security.
  2. Publish clear privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the homepage to improve transparency and compliance.
  3. Provide explicit contact information for security incidents and establish a vulnerability disclosure program to foster trust and responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance with accessibility standards and broaden user inclusivity.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks and optimize performance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website employs a modern JavaScript-based front end with integration of multiple third-party services including Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Thron Digital Assets tracking, and New Relic for performance monitoring. The presence of OneTrust cookie consent indicates attention to privacy compliance. The site uses preloaded web fonts and responsive design techniques to optimize user experience across devices. However, no specific CMS or hosting provider information was detected. Performance is moderate with room for optimization, particularly in accessibility and SEO enhancements. The technical stack is robust but could be improved by adding security headers and more explicit metadata for enhanced security and SEO.
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.
