Healthcare websites carry privacy expectations that most website tools ignore. Our scan looks for risk signals: patterns on your site that are worth a closer look from a privacy point of view, such as how forms are handled and how your site is configured.

How to read a risk signal

Each signal explains what the scan noticed and why it may deserve attention. Signals are grouped by how serious they look, so you can prioritize.

What to do next

Open a signal to see the details and a suggested review step. Because privacy questions can be nuanced, the best next step is usually to review flagged items with the right person on your side.

These are risk signals from an automated scan, not legal determinations. Review anything flagged here with your privacy officer or a qualified advisor. The tool cannot certify compliance.
