Understanding Privacy and Technical Findings

How to read findings without treating them as legal verdicts.

Last updated 2026-10-31

Scan findings describe observed behavior: technologies present, timing relative to consent scenarios, and differences versus prior scans when comparison data exists.

What findings are not

  • Not a determination that GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, HIPAA, or another law was violated.
  • Not a full penetration test.
  • Not a certification of accessibility, advertising-policy, or medical-claims compliance.

Use findings to prioritize engineering and privacy review with your own counsel and policies.
