About websitecontrole

Do you store who ran a check?

No. We keep the report at its own address, but not who ran it. The analytics are cookieless.

Privacy

How is the grade worked out?

From public rules, with the evidence underneath. Every verdict follows from what your site sends and what a browser sees on a real visit, and you can recalculate it yourself.

How we grade

Do you attack my site?

No. We open your home page once, just like a visitor's browser, and nothing more. We do not look for other pages or hidden files, and we send no attack attempts.

How we grade

My site scores low, what now?

There is concrete advice per platform, with code you can copy. Answer what your site runs on in the report and the advice points at your platform.

Advice per platform

Does my grade change when you change the rules?

A saved report is frozen: it keeps showing what we saw then, even when the model changes later. So a link you share stays right. Re-check runs a new one.

How we grade

Can I compare sites side by side?

Yes. You can grade several sites at once and see the gaps next to each other.

Is the tool itself accessible?

We do our best. There is no formal WCAG audit, and if you get stuck, we would like to hear about it.
