## Security

### Security Headers (C — 55/100)

*5 of 10 headers properly configured*

- **[WARNING]** HSTS is enabled but max-age is short (604800s, should be >= 31536000s) — The header is present and enforced, so first-visit protection is already in place; a short max-age just means the browser forgets it sooner. Set max-age to at least 31536000 (1 year).
- **[PASS]** X-Content-Type-Options is properly configured
- **[PASS]** X-Frame-Options is properly configured
- **[WARNING]** Referrer-Policy header is missing — Controls how much referrer information is sent with requests. Set to 'strict-origin-when-cross-origin' or stricter.
- **[WARNING]** Permissions-Policy header is missing — Controls which browser features (camera, microphone, geolocation) are allowed. Set it to restrict unused features.
- **[PASS]** Content-Security-Policy is present
- **[WARNING]** Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy header is missing — COOP isolates your browsing context, preventing cross-origin side-channel attacks. Set to 'same-origin'.
- **[WARNING]** Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy header is missing — COEP prevents loading cross-origin resources without explicit permission. Required for SharedArrayBuffer and high-resolution timers.
- **[PASS]** X-Powered-By header is not present
- **[PASS]** Server header is present without version info
- **[INFO]** Domain is not in the Chrome HSTS preload list (status: unknown) — Submit your domain to hstspreload.org to close the trust-on-first-use gap. Requires a preload-ready HSTS header (max-age=31536000+, includeSubDomains, preload).

### Content Security Policy (B — 70/100)

*2 of 11 CSP checks passed*

- **[INFO]** Raw CSP policy
- **[WARNING]** default-src directive is missing — default-src provides a fallback for other directives. Set it to restrict default resource loading.
- **[INFO]** No script-src or default-src to check for 'unsafe-inline'
- **[INFO]** No script-src or default-src to check for 'unsafe-eval'
- **[INFO]** No script-src or default-src to check for wildcard
- **[PASS]** object-src falls back to default-src
- **[WARNING]** base-uri directive is missing — Without base-uri, attackers can inject a <base> tag to hijack relative URLs. Set it to 'self' or 'none'.
- **[PASS]** frame-ancestors directive is set
- **[WARNING]** form-action directive is missing — form-action restricts where forms can submit data, preventing form hijacking.
- **[INFO]** upgrade-insecure-requests is not set — This directive upgrades HTTP resources to HTTPS automatically, preventing mixed content.
- **[INFO]** Content-Security-Policy-Report-Only is also set — A report-only policy is active alongside the enforcing policy for monitoring.

### TLS & Certificates (A+ — 100/100)

*TLS 1.3, 8 checks passed*

- **[PASS]** TLS 1.3 is used
- **[PASS]** Strong cipher suite is used
- **[PASS]** HTTP/2 is negotiated
- **[INFO]** OCSP stapling not enabled — Without stapling, the browser performs a separate OCSP roundtrip on first connection -- adding latency and leaking the visited host to the CA. Enable OCSP stapling on your TLS server.
- **[PASS]** Certificate is valid (expires in 54 days)
- **[PASS]** Certificate chain has 2 certificates
- **[PASS]** Certificate uses modern signature algorithm
- **[PASS]** Certificate covers 2 domain(s)
- **[PASS]** Certificate is issued by a trusted CA

### Cookie Security (A — 85/100)

*5 cookies analyzed, 12 checks passed*

- **[PASS]** Cookie 'ssl_sess' has the Secure flag
- **[PASS]** Cookie 'ssl_sess' has the HttpOnly flag
- **[PASS]** Cookie 'ssl_sess' has SameSite=None
- **[PASS]** Cookie 'assumed_login_flag' has the Secure flag
- **[PASS]** Cookie 'assumed_login_flag' has the HttpOnly flag
- **[WARNING]** Cookie 'assumed_login_flag' has no SameSite attribute — Without an explicit SameSite attribute, browser default behavior varies. Set SameSite=Lax or Strict.
- **[PASS]** Cookie 'sess' has the Secure flag
- **[PASS]** Cookie 'sess' has the HttpOnly flag
- **[PASS]** Cookie 'sess' has SameSite=None
- **[PASS]** Cookie 'ascv' has the Secure flag
- **[WARNING]** Cookie 'ascv' is missing the HttpOnly flag — Without HttpOnly, this cookie can be accessed by JavaScript, making it vulnerable to XSS-based theft.
- **[PASS]** Cookie 'ascv' has SameSite=None
- **[PASS]** Cookie 'stvi' has the Secure flag
- **[WARNING]** Cookie 'stvi' is missing the HttpOnly flag — Without HttpOnly, this cookie can be accessed by JavaScript, making it vulnerable to XSS-based theft.
- **[PASS]** Cookie 'stvi' has SameSite=None

### Cookie Hygiene (A+ — 100/100)

*All 5 cookie(s) pass hygiene checks*

- **[PASS]** All 5 cookie(s) pass hygiene checks

### WAF / Bot Protection (B — 75/100)

*No WAF detected via response headers*

- **[INFO]** No WAF detected — Response headers don't match any known WAF or bot-management product. Sites exposed to abuse (login, signup, payment) typically benefit from a WAF such as Cloudflare, Akamai, AWS WAF, or Imperva.

### security.txt (C — 60/100)

*No security.txt file found*

- **[INFO]** No security.txt file found — security.txt (RFC 9116) provides a standardized way for security researchers to report vulnerabilities. Create one at /.well-known/security.txt with at least a Contact field.

### Cross-Origin Tab Safety (C — 75/100)

*2 of 16 new-tab link(s) missing rel=noopener*

- **[WARNING]** 2 link(s) open in a new tab without rel=noopener — Without rel="noopener", the destination tab can navigate the original tab via window.opener -- a reverse-tabnabbing phishing primitive. Modern browsers default to noopener since Chrome 88 / Firefox 79 / Safari 12.1, but explicit rel="noopener noreferrer" remains the documented best practice for older browsers, in-app webviews, and security scanners.

### CSP Inline-Style Readiness (C — 75/100)

*26 inline style attribute(s) detected*

- **[WARNING]** 26 inline style attribute(s) detected — Each `style=""` attribute forces `style-src 'unsafe-inline'` in any Content-Security-Policy, which negates most of CSP's XSS-mitigation value. 26 inline style(s) is moderate. Affected element types include: div, span, i, h3, p. Move styles to a stylesheet; use CSS custom properties for runtime-dynamic values; or adopt a nonce/hash CSP policy. Most teams take the stylesheet path because it's also a maintainability win.

### Trusted Types (XSS Sink Hardening) (B — 95/100)

*Trusted Types not enabled*

- **[INFO]** Trusted Types not enabled — Trusted Types (CSP3) is a Chrome 83+ defense that requires DOM-XSS sinks (innerHTML, document.write, eval, ...) to receive a typed-and-sanitized value rather than a raw string. Adding `Content-Security-Policy: require-trusted-types-for 'script'; trusted-types default` neutralizes most DOM-XSS even when a payload reaches a sink. Adoption is currently ~0.1% of pages so this is informational; a roll-out usually starts in report-only mode.

### Bot Challenge Detection (A+ — 100/100)

*Scan reached real page content (no bot-protection interstitial)*

- **[PASS]** No bot-protection interstitial detected -- the rest of the report reflects the real page

### Soft-404 Detection (A+ — 100/100)

*No soft-404 patterns detected in page title or headings*

- **[PASS]** No soft-404 patterns detected in page title or headings

### Empty Page Detection (A+ — 100/100)

*Page has substantive body text and no placeholder / template-leak signals*

- **[PASS]** Page has substantive body text and no placeholder / template-leak signals

### Geo-Restriction Detection (A+ — 100/100)

*No geo-restriction signals detected -- scan reached the page from an allowed region*

- **[PASS]** No geo-restriction detected

### Maintenance Mode Detection (A+ — 100/100)

*No maintenance-mode signals detected -- scan reached a normal page*

- **[PASS]** No maintenance-mode signals detected

### Subresource Integrity Adoption (F — 30/100)

*0% SRI adoption (0/15 third-party resources)*

- **[WARNING]** SRI adoption: 0/15 third-party resources protected (0%) — Of 15 third-party `<script>` / `<link rel=stylesheet>` resources, 0 (0%) declare a Subresource Integrity hash via the `integrity=` attribute. SRI binds the page to the exact bytes of the third-party resource: if the CDN is compromised, attacker-modified bytes won't match the declared hash and the browser refuses to execute the resource.

Missing SRI on (first 5 examples):
  - https://snap.licdn.com/li.lms-analytics/insight.old.min.js
  - //cdn.mouseflow.com/projects/360c0c22-b8f1-4ca9-8ebd-8f578a9c822d.js
  - //cdn.raygun.io/raygun4js/raygun.min.js
  - https://snap.licdn.com/li.lms-analytics/insight.min.js
  - https://d34r8q7sht0t9k.cloudfront.net/tag.js

Fix: add `integrity="sha384-..."` and `crossorigin="anonymous"` attributes. Generators: srihash.org, or in-browser via `await crypto.subtle.digest('SHA-384', bytes)`. Cache-bust the resource URL when you change versions, since the integrity hash will mismatch with old cached bytes.

### CORS Depth (A+ — 100/100)

*No CORS response headers -- the resource is same-origin-only by browser default*

- **[PASS]** No CORS response headers -- the resource is same-origin-only by browser default

### Permissions-Policy Granularity (C — 60/100)

*No Permissions-Policy header set -- powerful features (camera / microphone / geolocation / payment / USB) default to allow-on-same-origin*

- **[WARNING]** Permissions-Policy header not set -- features default to allow-on-same-origin — Without a `Permissions-Policy` (or legacy `Feature-Policy`) header, every powerful browser feature defaults to its spec default policy (typically `self`). A third-party iframe injected via XSS or a misconfigured embed can still request access to the user's camera, microphone, geolocation, payment APIs, USB devices, etc. Explicitly deny features the page doesn't need:

```
Permissions-Policy: camera=(), microphone=(), geolocation=(), payment=(), usb=(), accelerometer=(), gyroscope=()
```

Features the page legitimately uses can stay enabled with `feature=(self)`.

### Referrer-Policy Strictness (B — 75/100)

*Referrer-Policy header not set -- browser default applies (modern: strict-origin-when-cross-origin; legacy browsers: no-referrer-when-downgrade)*

- **[INFO]** Referrer-Policy header not set -- browser default applies — Without an explicit `Referrer-Policy` header, the browser falls back to its default policy. Modern browsers (Chrome 85+, Firefox 87+, Safari 15+) default to `strict-origin-when-cross-origin`, which is privacy-safe. Legacy browsers default to the leaky `no-referrer-when-downgrade`, which sends the full URL (including path + query) on cross-origin HTTPS-to-HTTPS requests. Set an explicit header to ensure consistent behavior:

```
Referrer-Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-origin
```

This matches the modern browser default and is privacy-safe without breaking referrer-based same-origin analytics.

### Source Map Exposure (A+ — 100/100)

*No source maps accessible (probed 10 candidate URL(s))*

- **[PASS]** No source maps accessible across 10 probed candidate(s)

### HTML Version Disclosure (A+ — 100/100)

*No software-version disclosures in HTML*

- **[PASS]** No software-version disclosures in HTML

### Open Redirect Surface (A+ — 100/100)

*No redirect-shaped query parameters in DOM links*

- **[PASS]** No redirect-shaped query parameters in DOM links

### Auth Security (A+ — 100/100)

*Page is not a login form -- auth-security checks are N/A*

- **[PASS]** Page does not appear to be a login form

### Subdomain Inventory Exposure (A+ — 100/100)

*No risky subdomain names in certificate SANs*

- **[PASS]** No risky subdomain names in certificate SANs

### JS Library Vulnerabilities (A+ — 100/100)

*No known vulnerabilities*

- **[PASS]** No known JavaScript library vulnerabilities detected

### Information Leakage (A+ — 100/100)

*No exposures*

- **[INFO]** No security.txt found — Consider adding a security.txt at /.well-known/security.txt.
- **[PASS]** No sensitive files exposed

### Email Security (F — 20/100)

*no DMARC, SPF: -all*

- **[WARNING]** No DMARC record found — Without DMARC, email receivers have no policy for handling authentication failures. Add a TXT record at _dmarc.<domain> starting with v=DMARC1.
- **[PASS]** SPF ends in -all (hard fail) — strongest setting
- **[INFO]** No DKIM detected via common selectors — DKIM signs outbound mail to prove origin. We probed common selectors (default, google, selector1, etc.) without finding a record. If you use a non-standard selector, this is a false negative.
- **[INFO]** MTA-STS not configured — MTA-STS forces inbound mail to use TLS, preventing downgrade attacks. Requires both a TXT record at _mta-sts.<domain> and a policy file at https://mta-sts.<domain>/.well-known/mta-sts.txt.
- **[INFO]** TLS-RPT not configured — TLS-RPT (RFC 8460) lets MTAs report TLS-handshake failures, so you can detect and fix MTA-STS misconfigurations. Add a TXT record at _smtp._tls.<domain>.
- **[INFO]** BIMI not configured — BIMI (Brand Indicators for Message Identification) lets supporting clients (Gmail, Apple Mail, Yahoo) display your verified logo next to your messages. Optional but raises trust signals. Requires DMARC at p=quarantine or p=reject to be honored.

### API Surface (A+ — 100/100)

*No API specs or GraphQL introspection found (probed 11 candidate path(s))*

- **[PASS]** No API specs or GraphQL introspection found (probed 11 path(s))

### Permissions-Policy (D — 40/100)

*No header set*

- **[WARNING]** No Permissions-Policy header — Consider adding a Permissions-Policy header to restrict browser feature access from embedded content.

### CORS Configuration (B — 80/100)

*No CORS headers*

- **[PASS]** No CORS headers present — secure default

## Performance

### Page Weight Budget (F — 16/100)

*3.4 MB transferred, 113 requests*

- **[WARNING]** Page weighs 8.4 MB (3.4 MB transferred)
- **[WARNING]** Images are 1.5 MB — compress or use modern formats — Convert images to WebP/AVIF and resize to display dimensions to reduce transfer size.
- **[WARNING]** JavaScript is 1.3 MB — consider code splitting or lazy loading — Large JavaScript bundles delay interactivity. Split code by route or defer non-critical scripts.
- **[INFO]** Fonts are 233 KB — consider subsetting or using system fonts — Subset fonts to include only used characters, or switch to system font stacks.
- **[INFO]** CSS is 227 KB — consider purging unused styles — Remove unused CSS rules with tools like PurgeCSS to reduce stylesheet size.
- **[WARNING]** 113 HTTP requests — consider bundling or reducing — Each request adds latency. Bundle small files, use sprites, or eliminate unnecessary requests.
- **[INFO]** Estimated 0.71 g CO2 per page load

### Third-Party Impact (D — 50/100)

*79% third-party, 0 ms blocking*

- **[WARNING]** Third-party code accounts for 79% of page weight (2.7 MiB of 3.4 MiB)
- **[PASS]** Third-party blocking time is low (0 ms)

### Text Compression (A+ — 100/100)

*All text resources are compressed*

- **[PASS]** All text resources are compressed

### Image Optimization (C — 60/100)

*37 images, 0 KB saveable*

- **[WARNING]** https://static.winc.com.au/jpeg/ab/853332ce43e9b53... is missing width/height — may cause layout shift — Set explicit width and height to prevent CLS.
- **[WARNING]** https://www.winc.com.au/media/images/new/winc_prim... is missing width/height — may cause layout shift — Set explicit width and height to prevent CLS.
- **[WARNING]**  is missing width/height — may cause layout shift — Set explicit width and height to prevent CLS.
- **[WARNING]** https://static.winc.com.au/jpeg/76/c9f5400b8ba0e93... is missing width/height — may cause layout shift — Set explicit width and height to prevent CLS.

### JS Execution Cost (F — 20/100)

*4388ms total JS execution*

- **[WARNING]** https://www.winc.com.au/: 1143ms CPU time
- **[WARNING]** Unattributable: 880ms CPU time
- **[WARNING]** https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=G-1MR2...: 745ms CPU time
- **[WARNING]** https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=UA-195...: 311ms CPU time
- **[INFO]** https://www.winc.com.au/js/vue_chunk-common__94a3c...: 194ms CPU time
- **[INFO]** Third-party scripts: 1555ms (35% of total)

### Font Loading (A+ — 100/100)

*3 fonts (233 KB)*

- **[INFO]** 3 font(s) use font-display: swap (FOUT risk but functional)

### JS Bundles (D — 40/100)

*40 scripts, 358 KB unused*

- **[WARNING]** https://www.winc.com.au/js/vue_chunk-vendors__fef0...: 88 KB unused (79%) — Consider code splitting or tree shaking to reduce unused code.
- **[WARNING]** https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=UA-195...: 66 KB unused (50%) — Consider code splitting or tree shaking to reduce unused code.
- **[WARNING]** https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=G-1MR2...: 56 KB unused (30%) — Consider code splitting or tree shaking to reduce unused code.
- **[WARNING]** https://cdn.mouseflow.com/projects/360c0c22-b8f1-4...: 42 KB unused (82%) — Consider code splitting or tree shaking to reduce unused code.
- **[WARNING]** https://www.winc.com.au/js/built_vendors.legacy__a...: 30 KB unused (59%) — Consider code splitting or tree shaking to reduce unused code.
- **[INFO]** Total unused JavaScript: 358 KB

### Resource Caching (A+ — 100/100)

*All resources properly cached*

- **[PASS]** No caching issues found

### Critical Rendering Path (A+ — 100/100)

*No render-blocking resources*

- **[PASS]** No render-blocking resources detected

### Resource Hints (A+ — 95/100)

*7 hints, 0 missing preconnects*

- **[INFO]** 3 dns-prefetch redundant with preconnect on same origin — preconnect already does the DNS lookup; adding dns-prefetch to the same origin is at best a no-op. Sample: https://fonts.googleapis.com, https://dpm.demdex.net, https://smetrics.winc.com.au. Remove the redundant dns-prefetch entries.
- **[PASS]** Page uses 7 resource hint(s)

### HTTP/3 (QUIC) (B — 75/100)

*HTTP/3 not advertised*

- **[INFO]** HTTP/3 (QUIC) is not advertised — HTTP/3 isn't advertised via Alt-Svc and the worker didn't negotiate h3. HTTP/3 reduces handshake latency (1-RTT instead of 2-3 RTTs) and is more resilient on lossy connections. Most modern CDNs (Cloudflare, Fastly, AWS CloudFront, Google Cloud CDN) support HTTP/3 with a single config switch -- consider enabling for mobile-heavy workloads.

### Document Compression (B — 80/100)

*Document response uses gzip; brotli would be ~20% smaller*

- **[INFO]** Main HTML response uses gzip (brotli would be ~20% smaller) — All current browsers support brotli. Most CDNs (Cloudflare, Fastly, AWS CloudFront, Vercel, Netlify) can switch from gzip to brotli with a single config flag. Origin servers (nginx, Apache) need a brotli module compiled in -- nginx-brotli or Apache mod_brotli.

### Asset Compression (A — 90/100)

*1 of 2 asset hosts still on gzip*

- **[PASS]** static.winc.com.au serves assets with brotli (assets: 33)
- **[INFO]** staplesanz.my.site.com serves assets with gzip; brotli would be ~20% smaller (assets: 4) — Every current browser accepts brotli. On a CDN this is a per-pull-zone toggle (Cloudflare, Fastly, CloudFront, CDN77, Bunny all expose it); on an origin it needs the brotli module (nginx-brotli, Apache mod_brotli). The saving lands on the assets this host serves, not on the HTML document -- the document's own encoding is reported separately.

### LCP Image Preload (A+ — 100/100)

*LCP preload audit not available*

- **[PASS]** LCP image preload audit not available for this scan

### Main HTML Cache-Control (A+ — 100/100)

*Main HTML uses no-cache -- safe revalidate-on-request policy*

- **[PASS]** Main HTML uses no-cache -- safe revalidate-on-request policy

### Server-Timing Observability (B — 85/100)

*No Server-Timing header found*

- **[INFO]** No Server-Timing header found — Server-Timing exposes backend timing breakdowns to browser DevTools (e.g., `db: 45ms; render: 120ms; cache: 2ms`). Useful for diagnosing slow pages without backend log access. Most modern frameworks (Next.js, Cloudflare Workers, Fastly) emit it automatically; absence on a managed platform usually means telemetry headers are stripped at the edge.

### Server Response Intelligence (A+ — 95/100)

*2 server-response signal(s) detected*

- **[PASS]** `Vary` header declared: Accept-Encoding — The page declares a `Vary` header, telling downstream caches which request headers the response varies on. Critical for content-negotiated responses (compression, language, cookies, device class).
- **[INFO]** No `ETag` or `Last-Modified` -- conditional GET not supported — Without either header, browsers can't issue conditional GETs and refresh always re-downloads the full response body even when nothing changed. Add `ETag: "<hash>"` (or `Last-Modified: <date>`) on cacheable responses; the server returns 304 Not Modified when the client's cached copy is still valid, saving bandwidth.

### Page Weight Inventory (D — 40/100)

*113 resources · 3.4 MB · 358 KB savings available*

- **[WARNING]** Page weight 3.4 MB exceeds 1 MB target by 2.4 MB
- **[INFO]** ~358 KB of savings available
- **[WARNING]** 79 third-party resources (79% of weight)
- **[INFO]** 2 resources over 200KB

### Render-Blocking Resources (A+ — 100/100)

*No render-blocking resources detected*

- **[PASS]** No render-blocking resources detected in <head>

### Third-Party Resources (A+ — 100/100)

*No third-party resources detected*


### JavaScript Blocking (C — 60/100)

*3 JS blocking issue(s) detected*

- **[WARNING]** 18 render-blocking <script src> tag(s) without async/defer — Each `<script src=...>` without `async`, `defer`, or `type="module"` blocks HTML parsing while the browser fetches and executes it. The block lasts the entire round-trip + execution time -- on slow networks this translates directly into LCP delay. Add `defer` (executes after parse, in source order) for scripts that interact with the DOM, or `async` (executes whenever ready) for analytics / independent scripts. Module scripts (`type="module"`) are deferred by default.
- **[WARNING]** Page uses document.write() -- disables Chrome's preload scanner — `document.write()` blocks all parallel resource discovery while it executes. Chrome explicitly disables the preload scanner on connections it judges slow when document.write is detected, serializing the entire subtree load. Almost always third-party ad / analytics legacy code; replacing with createElement + appendChild (or refusing to integrate the offending vendor) recovers significant load-time on mobile.
- **[WARNING]** Total JS execution time is 4.4 s -- over the 3.5s budget — Total JavaScript execution (parse + compile + run) across all scripts exceeds 3.5 seconds. On low-end devices that becomes 7-15+ seconds and shows up directly in TBT and INP. Reduce by: tree-shaking unused dependencies, code-splitting (dynamic `import()`), removing or deferring third-party tracking, and replacing heavy frameworks where they're not needed.

### CSS Performance Depth (A+ — 100/100)

*No CSS performance depth issues detected*

- **[PASS]** No CSS performance depth issues detected

## Content Quality

### Links (B — 80/100)

*157 links checked, 153 healthy, 4 broken*

- **[CRITICAL]** 153 of 157 links are healthy

- **[WARNING]** Broken link: https://fonts.gstatic.com — Found in <link href>. Returns HTTP 404.
- **[CRITICAL]** Broken link: https://www.winc.com.au/services/excellent-customer-servi... — Found in <a href>. Returns HTTP 400.
- **[CRITICAL]** Broken link: https://www.fsc.org — Found in <a href>. Get "https://www.fsc.org": tls: failed to verify certificate: x509: certificate is valid for default.ssl.fastly.net, *.hosts.fastly.net, *.fastly.com, not www.fsc.org

### Mixed Content (A+ — 100/100)

*No mixed content detected — all resources use HTTPS.*

- **[PASS]** No mixed content detected — all resources use HTTPS

### Open Graph (A+ — 100/100)

*Open Graph tags are well configured for social sharing.*


### Open Graph / Twitter Card Depth (A+ — 100/100)

- **[PASS]** OG/Twitter Card depth is clean -- dimensions, card type, and inheritance all valid

### Structured Data (C — 75/100)

*1 JSON-LD block(s) found — some improvements recommended.*

- **[CRITICAL]** Malformed JSON-LD block #1 — JSON parse error: json: cannot unmarshal array into Go value of type map[string]interface {}

### Rich Results Eligibility (A+ — 100/100)

*1 JSON-LD block(s) declaring 0 schema type(s)*


### Image Optimization (F — 40/100)

*6 issues found across 41 images*

- **[WARNING]** 29 images missing explicit width/height — Images without dimensions cause layout shifts (CLS). Set explicit width and height attributes.
- **[INFO]** 26 below-fold images missing loading="lazy" — Lazy loading defers below-fold images, reducing initial page weight.
- **[WARNING]** All 33 images use legacy formats (JPEG/PNG/GIF) — WebP offers 25-35% smaller files than JPEG. Use <picture> with <source type="image/webp"> for modern format support.
- **[WARNING]** 2 images missing alt text — Alt text is essential for screen readers and SEO. Every meaningful image needs descriptive alt text.
- **[INFO]** 9 image(s) wider than 400px without srcset (no responsive serving) — These images deliver the same asset to every viewport (mobile, tablet, retina). Adding srcset / <picture> lets the browser pick a viewport-appropriate variant and typically saves 40-70% of bytes on mobile. Sample: https://www.winc.com.au/media/images/banners/offset-banner.jpg, https://static.winc.com.au/jpeg/ab/853332ce43e9b5304a6f8b2c16de873228534c-121834.jpg, https://static.winc.com.au/jpeg/eb/a63c8f999ace8652fa37ad37b472c911ff0613-33734.jpg (+6 more).
- **[INFO]** 1 image(s) rendered at a different aspect ratio than the source — The displayed dimensions distort the source -- CSS is forcing the image into a container at the wrong ratio, producing visible stretching or squashing. Either crop the source to match or use object-fit: cover (and accept the crop). Sample: https://www.winc.com.au/media/images/banners/offset-banner.jpg.

### Autoplay Media (A+ — 100/100)

*No autoplay media on the page*

- **[PASS]** No autoplay media on the page

## Infrastructure

### DNS Records (B — 75/100)

*1 A records, 2698 ms lookup*

- **[PASS]** Resolves to 1 IPv4 address(es)
- **[INFO]** Single A record — no DNS redundancy — Multiple A records provide failover if one server goes down.
- **[INFO]** No IPv6 (AAAA) records
- **[WARNING]** CNAME record at zone apex — A CNAME at the zone apex can break MX and NS records. Use ALIAS/ANAME or A records instead.
- **[PASS]** 2 nameserver(s) configured
- **[PASS]** 2 mail exchanger(s) configured
- **[PASS]** SPF record present in TXT
- **[WARNING]** DNS resolution is slow (2698 ms) — Slow DNS adds latency to every page load. Consider a faster DNS provider.

### Subdomain Takeover (A+ — 100/100)

*No subdomain takeover risk detected*

- **[PASS]** CNAME does not point at a known takeover-able service

### DNSSEC (F — 30/100)

*DS at parent but zone has no DNSKEY*

- **[CRITICAL]** Parent zone has DS record but the zone publishes no DNSKEY — The registry advertises this domain as signed (DS record present) but the zone returns no DNSKEY records. Validating resolvers will SERVFAIL. Either republish the DNSKEY records or remove the DS record at the registrar.

### CAA Records (B — 80/100)

*No CAA records (any CA may issue certificates)*

- **[INFO]** No CAA records published — Without CAA records, any publicly-trusted CA can issue certificates for this domain. Adding a CAA record (`yourdomain. IN CAA 0 issue "letsencrypt.org"`) restricts issuance to CAs you authorize. Required by CAB Forum baseline since 2017; the default of 'any CA' is widely supported but is the broader attack surface for issuance fraud.

### Reverse DNS (C — 60/100)

*0/1 IPs match cert SAN*

- **[INFO]** PTR lookup failed for 52.187.235.24: lookup 52.187.235.24: no such host — No reverse DNS record set for this IP. Common on bare cloud-VM IPs without provider-side PTR; not a security issue.

### Multi-Resolver DNS Speed (A+ — 100/100)

*Mean 1ms across 3 resolvers (spread 1ms)*

- **[PASS]** Quad9: 1ms
- **[PASS]** Google: 1ms
- **[PASS]** Cloudflare: 2ms

### Redirect Chain (A+ — 100/100)

*No redirects — direct access*

- **[PASS]** No redirects — direct access

### IPv6 Readiness (C — 60/100)

*No IPv6 support*

- **[INFO]** No IPv6 (AAAA) records found — IPv6 support is increasingly important for global accessibility. About 40% of internet users have IPv6 connectivity.

### Crawlability (A+ — 100/100)

*robots.txt present, sitemap with 1044 URLs*

- **[PASS]** robots.txt is present
- **[PASS]** sitemap.xml is present
- **[PASS]** sitemap.xml is valid XML
- **[PASS]** sitemap.xml contains 1044 entries
- **[PASS]** Sitemap index with 1044 child sitemaps
- **[PASS]** robots.txt references sitemap

*www/non-www, trailing slash, HTTP→HTTPS*

- **[PASS]** www/non-www redirect configured correctly (preferred: www)
- **[PASS]** HTTP correctly redirects to HTTPS permanently

### Domain Intelligence (A+ — 100/100)

*winc.com.au — via Corporation Service Company (Aust) Pty Ltd, hosted on Microsoft Azure*

- **[PASS]** DNSSEC is enabled
- **[PASS]** Registrar: Corporation Service Company (Aust) Pty Ltd
- **[WARNING]** Registrar lock is NOT enabled — The domain can be transferred without an unlock step. Enable registrar lock (clientTransferProhibited) in your registrar's control panel to protect against unauthorized or accidental transfers.
- **[PASS]** Hosting: Microsoft Azure

## Compliance

### WCAG Compliance (A+ — 100/100)

*No testable criteria*


### Cookie Consent & Privacy (A+ — 95/100)

*privacy policy found*

- **[PASS]** Privacy policy link found
- **[PASS]** Terms of service link found
- **[INFO]** No cookie consent banner detected
- **[WARNING]** 5 unclassified cookie(s) set before any consent step — These cookies could not be matched to a known tracker or to a known essential-cookie family, so the scanner cannot tell whether consent was required. Verify each is strictly necessary; if any is analytics or advertising, it needs consent first. Unrecognized (treated as non-essential): ssl_sess, assumed_login_flag, sess, ascv, stvi
- **[INFO]** This is an automated check, not legal advice — BeaverCheck detects technical indicators of consent management. This does not constitute a legal compliance assessment. Consult a privacy professional for GDPR/CCPA compliance.

### Consent UX Depth (A+ — 100/100)

*No consent-UX depth issues detected*

- **[PASS]** No consent-UX depth issues detected

### Tracker Inventory (A+ — 100/100)

*4 known tracker(s) detected*

- **[PASS]** 4 known tracker(s) detected — Inventory of trackers loaded by the page (matched against a curated SDK URL registry):

analytics: Google Analytics (UA), Google Analytics 4 | marketing: LinkedIn Insight | session-replay: Mouseflow

Each entry maps a script URL pattern to a known vendor SDK. This is purely informational -- consent posture / pre-consent firing is graded by the consent analyzer.

### Language & i18n (A — 90/100)

*Lang attribute present*

- **[PASS]** <html lang> attribute is present
- **[PASS]** <html lang> value is valid
- **[INFO]** No Content-Language HTTP header
- **[INFO]** Language signals are inconsistent — The <html lang> attribute and Content-Language header should agree.

### Hreflang Configuration (A+ — 100/100)

*No hreflang tags on this page*

- **[PASS]** No hreflang tags found (single-language site)

### Internationalization Extras (A+ — 100/100)

*No additional i18n signals detected*

- **[PASS]** No additional i18n signals detected

### Readability & Typography (A+ — 100/100)

*Font sizes and tap targets checked*


### Viewport Configuration (A+ — 100/100)

*Viewport properly configured*

- **[PASS]** Viewport meta tag is present
- **[PASS]** width=device-width is set
- **[PASS]** User zooming is allowed

### Accessibility Statement (B — 70/100)

*No accessibility statement detected*

- **[WARNING]** No accessibility statement detected — Sites are increasingly expected to publish an accessibility statement. Required by EU Web Accessibility Directive 2016/2102 for public-sector bodies; recommended best practice elsewhere. Common URLs: /accessibility, /accessibility-statement, /a11y. Detection is by link URL and anchor text, in a limited set of languages, so this is an unconfirmed absence.

### GDPR Article 13 Disclosures (F — 12/100)

*1 / 8 Art. 13 categories matched in homepage body*

- **[WARNING]** GDPR Article 13 disclosure coverage: 1 / 8 categories — Scanned the homepage body text AND the linked /privacy page for GDPR Article 13 disclosures. Matched 1 of 8 categories: Recipients of personal data. Missing: Data Protection Officer contact (where applicable), Data retention period, Data subject rights (access, erasure, rectification, etc.), Identity / contact details of the data controller, International data transfers, Legal basis for processing, Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. Note: only the FIRST same-origin privacy-policy link is followed; deeper sub-pages (e.g. /legal/data-subject-rights) are not fetched.

### Third-Party Trackers (B — 80/100)

*11 trackers detected*

- **[INFO]** 11 third-party trackers detected — Found 8 analytics, 2 advertising, 0 marketing, 1 tag manager, 0 session-replay, 0 heatmap trackers.
- **[WARNING]** 2 advertising/retargeting trackers detected — Advertising trackers collect user data for ad targeting. Under GDPR, these typically require explicit consent.

### Cookie & Tracker Inventory (A+ — 100/100)

*5 cookies · 11 trackers · 0 pre-consent*

- **[INFO]** 4 cookie(s) could not be classified
- **[INFO]** 11 third-party tracker(s) detected on page

### Tracking Pixel Inventory (B — 90/100)

*1 tracking pixel(s) on the page*

- **[INFO]** 1 tracking pixel(s) on the page (1 domain(s)) — Tracking pixels are 1x1 / 2x2 cross-origin <img> tags that fire a GET request when the browser renders them -- no JavaScript, no cookies needed. They're how trackers survive when users disable JS or block third-party cookies, and they bypass most ad-blocker rules that target script src. Each one needs explicit disclosure under GDPR Art 7 / CCPA / ePrivacy because the request itself transmits the page URL + IP + user-agent + referrer to the tracker. Audit each surfaced domain: is it disclosed in your privacy policy? Is it conditional on the cookie banner? Affected domains: verifi.podscribe.com.

### Browser Fingerprinting (A+ — 100/100)

*No browser-fingerprinting libraries detected*

- **[PASS]** No browser-fingerprinting libraries detected

### Cross-Site Cookies (SameSite=None) (C — 70/100)

*4 cross-site cookie(s) (4 tracking-shaped, 0 essential)*

- **[WARNING]** 4 tracking-shaped cross-site cookie(s): ascv, sess, ssl_sess, stvi — Cookies with SameSite=None travel in cross-site contexts (third-party iframes, cross-origin POSTs, embedded widgets). With third-party cookies dying in Chrome/Firefox, the legitimate use cases narrowed to SSO + payment widgets + federated auth. Each tracking-shaped cookie surfaced here is a cross-site analytics or ad-tech surface that needs explicit privacy-policy disclosure beyond basic cookie banner consent. Audit each: is it conditional on consent? Does the privacy policy name the recipient + purpose? Switching to SameSite=Lax disables the cross-site travel without breaking same-site analytics.

### Beacon Tracking (sendBeacon) (A+ — 100/100)

*No navigator.sendBeacon usage detected in inline scripts*

- **[PASS]** No navigator.sendBeacon usage detected in inline scripts

- **[PASS]** Copyright holder: Winc Australia Pty Limited ABN 94000728398 Austral

### Regulatory Indicators

*1 regulatory indicator(s) detected*

- **[INFO]** This is a technical scan, not a legal assessment — BeaverCheck detects technical indicators that may suggest regulatory relevance. This is not a compliance audit and should not be relied upon for legal decisions. Consult qualified legal counsel for compliance assessments.
- **[INFO]** GDPR indicators detected (moderate confidence) — Indicators suggesting GDPR may be relevant: Privacy policy page found. EU General Data Protection Regulation — governs collection and processing of personal data of EU residents.

### Third-Party Data Sharing

*2 third-party service(s) detected*

- **[INFO]** Data inventory for transparency purposes — This inventory identifies third-party services that receive data from your site visitors. Under regulations like GDPR (Article 30), maintaining records of data processing activities is commonly considered a best practice. This automated scan provides a starting point — it may not capture all data flows.
- **[INFO]** 2 third-party services across 2 categories — 2 third-party services detected across 2 categories: Analytics (1), Advertising (1). Each of these services receives some user data from your site visitors.
- **[INFO]** Google Analytics (Analytics) — Detected via script URL. Typically collects: Page views, User behavior, Demographics, Device info, IP address. Privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy. Data Processing Agreement available.

## Availability

### CDN & Delivery (C — 65/100)

*Assets on Azure CDN (host static.winc.com.au, 33 assets); document served directly from origin (Microsoft Azure)*

- **[WARNING]** Document not behind existing CDN (Azure CDN serves the assets) — The page's subresources are delivered by Azure CDN (static.winc.com.au, 33 assets), but the HTML document itself comes straight from the origin (Microsoft Azure). Routing the document through the CDN already in use is the cheapest latency win available here -- the provider relationship, the certificate and the config already exist. A short edge TTL with stale-while-revalidate suits HTML that changes often; if the response is genuinely per-user, edge TLS termination alone still removes a full round trip from every visitor's first byte.
- **[PASS]** Assets on Azure CDN: static.winc.com.au (assets: 33), cache TCP_MISS
- **[PASS]** Assets on Cloudflare: staplesanz.my.site.com (assets: 4), cache HIT

### HTTP Caching (B — 70/100)

*no-cache*

- **[PASS]** Cache-Control header is set
- **[INFO]** No ETag or Last-Modified header — Conditional requests (304 Not Modified) are not possible without validators.

### Operational Status Page (B — 80/100)

*No status page link detected*

- **[INFO]** No operational status page link detected — Status pages communicate planned maintenance and incidents to users -- a hallmark of operationally-mature services. Most SaaS teams publish one via Atlassian Statuspage, Instatus, BetterUptime, or a self-hosted Cachet. Smaller sites legitimately don't need one; flagged as Info, not a failure.

### Transport Security (B — 75/100)

*HTTP/3, HSTS, and TLS version analysis*

- **[INFO]** HTTP/3 (QUIC) not advertised — HTTP/3 eliminates head-of-line blocking. If your CDN supports it, consider enabling it.
- **[WARNING]** HSTS max-age is short: 7 days — HSTS max-age should be at least 1 year (31536000 seconds).
- **[INFO]** HSTS missing includeSubDomains — Without includeSubDomains, HSTS only protects the exact domain.
- **[PASS]** HSTS preload enabled
- **[PASS]** TLS 1.3 in use (fastest handshake, 1-RTT)

### Health Check Endpoint (A+ — 100/100)

*Health endpoint at https://www.winc.com.au/ping (HTTP 200)*

- **[PASS]** Public health endpoint at https://www.winc.com.au/ping

### CDN Cache Observability (B — 85/100)

*No CDN cache-status headers in the response*

- **[INFO]** No CDN cache-status headers in the response — Without an X-Cache / CF-Cache-Status / X-Vercel-Cache / Age header, you can't tell from outside whether a request hit the cache or went to origin. Operationally important: enables debugging stale-content reports and verifying cache rules. Most managed CDN platforms emit at least one of these by default; absence often means the platform's diagnostic headers are stripped at an upstream proxy.

## Accessibility

### Landmark Structure (B — 75/100)

*15 landmarks*

- **[PASS]** <main> landmark present
- **[PASS]** 9 <nav> landmark(s) found
- **[WARNING]** 1 of 9 <nav> elements are unlabeled — Multiple navigations need aria-label to distinguish them for screen readers.
- **[WARNING]** Skip navigation link is missing (WCAG 2.4.1) — Add a skip link as the first focusable element so keyboard users can bypass repeated navigation.
- **[PASS]** Search landmark present

### Heading Hierarchy (B — 75/100)

*37 headings*

- **[CRITICAL]** No H1 heading found — Every page should have one H1 that describes the page content.

- **[PASS]** 2 control(s) properly labeled

### Link & Button Quality (F — 28/100)

*31 issue(s) across 106 links and 13 buttons*

- **[CRITICAL]** 9 link(s) with no accessible text — Links without text are announced as raw URLs by screen readers.
- **[WARNING]** 21 link(s) with generic text — Generic link text like 'click here' doesn't describe the destination.
- **[WARNING]** 16 link(s) open in new tab without warning — Add '(opens in new tab)' to link text or aria-label.
- **[CRITICAL]** 1 button(s) with no accessible text — Icon-only buttons need an aria-label so screen readers can announce them.
- **[PASS]** 60 link(s) with descriptive text

### Form Input Types (A+ — 95/100)

*1 input(s) using type=text where a specific type would help*

- **[INFO]** Input "Ntt" should use type="search" (currently type="text") — Field name "Ntt" suggests type="search". Wrong type loses mobile keyboard hints, browser autofill, and free format validation. Change to <input type="search">.

### Form Input Quality (A+ — 100/100)

*14 form control(s) checked, no input-semantic issues*

- **[PASS]** All form input semantics look correct

- **[PASS]** <html lang="en"> is set and valid

### Tabindex Anti-Patterns (D — 50/100)

*0 positive, 10 -1-on-focusable*

- **[INFO]** tabindex="-1" on naturally-focusable <a> — tabindex="-1" removes an element from the keyboard tab order. Naturally-focusable elements (links, buttons, form controls) become unreachable for keyboard users. (Common false-positive: hidden honeypot fields. Verify the element is genuinely interactive before removing the tabindex.)
- **[INFO]** tabindex="-1" on naturally-focusable <a> — tabindex="-1" removes an element from the keyboard tab order.

### Iframe Accessibility (A — 90/100)

*1/2 iframe(s) missing title; 0 placeholder(s)*

- **[WARNING]** <iframe> missing title attribute (src="https://staplesanz.my.site.com/ESWWinc1726793112974/assets/htdocs/sitecontext.m…") — WCAG 4.1.2: iframes need a title attribute so screen readers can announce what's embedded. Without one, the announcement is just "iframe" -- the user has no way to decide whether to enter or skip.

### Tap Target Adequacy (C — 75/100)

*5 tap target(s) too small or too close together*

- **[WARNING]** 5 tap target(s) too small or too close to neighbors — WCAG 2.5.5 (Level AAA) requires interactive targets to be at least 44x44 CSS pixels; WCAG 2.5.8 (Level AA, added in 2.2) requires 24x24 minimum. Failing targets cause mis-taps for users with motor impairments, large fingers, or shaky hands -- and are a major bounce-rate driver on mobile commerce flows. Lighthouse measures rendered rects + adjacent-element spacing; the failing list is in the Lighthouse 'tap-targets' audit detail panel.

### Mobile-Readable Font Sizes (A+ — 100/100)

*All 120 visible text node(s) render at >= 12 CSS pixels*

- **[PASS]** All text uses legible mobile font sizes (>= 12 CSS px)

- **[PASS]** Display mode: minimal-ui

### PWA Depth (A+ — 95/100)

*1 PWA signal(s) surfaced*

- **[INFO]** Manifest has no maskable icon — Android 12+ Adaptive Icons crop non-maskable icons to a circle or squircle -- frequently hiding important parts of the logo. Add at least one icon entry with `"purpose": "maskable"` (or `"any maskable"`) and a maskable-aware design (16% safe-zone padding around the inner mark).

### Dark Mode Support (D — 45/100)

*Theme color only*

- **[INFO]** Theme-color present but no dark variant — A theme-color is set but no dark-specific variant was found. The browser toolbar may not adapt for dark mode users.
- **[INFO]** No dark mode signals detected — Consider adding CSS with @media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) and <meta name='color-scheme' content='light dark'>.
- **[INFO]** Detection limited to meta tags and inline styles — External CSS files may contain prefers-color-scheme rules not visible to this scan.

### Markup Quality (A — 85/100)

*2 markup-quality issue(s) detected*

- **[WARNING]** No `<meta charset>` declaration in HTML — The page has no `<meta charset="...">` tag. Browsers fall back to a default encoding (typically UTF-8 in modern browsers, but not guaranteed). Add `<meta charset="utf-8">` as the first child of `<head>` to make the encoding explicit.
- **[INFO]** 1 redundant ARIA role attribute(s) on native semantic element(s) — The W3C "ARIA in HTML" spec calls this its first rule: don't use ARIA when a native HTML element already conveys the semantics. `<button role="button">`, `<a href role="link">`, `<nav role="navigation">`, `<main role="main">` -- the role attribute either does nothing or shadows the native semantic, occasionally breaking assistive-tech behaviors. Remove the redundant role.
