Public-web scope
Scanning focuses on observable public website behavior and bounded supporting evidence.
CertScore.ai provides evidence-backed privacy diagnostics for public websites. We design the service to minimize unnecessary data collection, protect credentials and operational data, and keep customer-facing findings grounded in observable public-web evidence.
This page summarizes CertScore.ai's current security, privacy, and operational practices. It does not represent a third-party certification or legal compliance determination.
Scanning focuses on observable public website behavior and bounded supporting evidence.
Findings follow the canonical evidence and policy pipeline and remain review signals, not legal determinations.
We describe implemented practices without representing unverified certifications, audits, or controls.
CertScore.ai production services run in hosted Amazon Web Services infrastructure. Production is deployed through repository-controlled AWS workflows; local development tooling is not used as the production runtime.
Public web and MCP endpoints use HTTPS/TLS. Administrative product routes require authenticated platform-administrator authorization. Service roles and infrastructure policies scope workload access to the resources needed for each service, and sensitive runtime values are injected from managed secret stores rather than committed to application source.
Application credentials and signing material are supplied to production workloads through dedicated secret-management systems rather than stored in source code.
Hosted MCP connections support the OAuth 2.0 authorization code flow with PKCE. Approved scopes limit read and scan-creation access, and protected requests validate the resulting access token before processing.
CertScore.ai primarily analyzes publicly accessible website behavior. Retained scan evidence can include cookie and storage observations, tracker or vendor detections, consent controls, privacy-policy content or bounded excerpts, HTTPS/TLS observations, screenshots, and scan metadata.
The service also processes the account, authentication, billing, support, and operational data needed to provide the product. Details are described in the Privacy Policy.
Public production endpoints use HTTPS/TLS with managed certificates. Checked-in AWS infrastructure configures encryption at rest and public-access blocking for managed object stores used by the service where those stores are defined in infrastructure code.
MCP authorization tokens are validated before protected requests are processed. MCP telemetry is designed to exclude authorization headers, bearer tokens, request bodies, raw IP addresses, and client secrets.
Major providers used in the current service are listed below. A provider's involvement depends on the feature and operational configuration. The Privacy Policy is the canonical public description of how service-provider categories relate to data handling.
| Provider | Current purpose |
|---|---|
| Amazon Web Services | Production hosting, managed compute, object storage, queues, and secret management. |
| Cloudflare | DNS and edge services for CertScore.ai public properties. |
| Business and transactional email where configured, plus optional website analytics after consent. | |
| Stripe | Payment and subscription processing; CertScore.ai does not directly store payment card details. |
| OpenAI | Bounded model-assisted extraction or internal review of retained public-policy evidence where that workflow is enabled. |
