The problem
Small website gaps that turn into big problems
Most website compliance and security problems stay invisible until something goes wrong: a demand letter, a data leak or a hacked page. We find them first and fix them.
An outdated plugin lets an attacker in. A cookie banner that doesn’t block tracking falls short of privacy law. A form with no labels locks out screen-reader users.
A hacked site can also hurt your search presence. Spam pages get indexed under your domain, and Google can warn visitors away.
What we check
What the compliance and security audit checks
Privacy
A privacy policy that matches what the site actually collects. Cookie consent that really blocks tracking until consent where required. Opt-out links (CCPA/CPRA) where they apply. Form data handling.
Accessibility
A WCAG 2.2 AA review. For the full audit and code fixes, see our ADA accessibility service.
Security
SSL and HTTPS everywhere, security headers, outdated CMS, plugins and themes, unused admin accounts, malware and injected spam pages, file permissions, public backup files, and backups that actually restore.
Search damage from hacks
Spam pages indexed under your domain, spam backlinks, and Search Console security warnings. See technical SEO.
Third-party scripts
What each tag collects and where it sends data.

- Contact formLabelled fields for screen readers, spam protection, and data that goes only where it should.
- Third-party scriptsChat widgets, pixels and analytics: what each collects and where it sends it.
- Cookie bannerTracking stays off until the visitor agrees, where the law requires it.
- Privacy policy linkA policy that matches what the site actually collects, plus opt-out links where they apply.
Before and after
What a hacked site looks like in Google
Hacks often add spam pages under your domain, and Google can index them. Drag the handle, or use the arrow keys, to compare search results before and after a cleanup.
Spam pages ranking under your name and a “This site may be hacked” warning in results.
Spam removed, entry point closed, and the junk URLs dropped from Google.
