Why it may matter

The signal helps prioritise a review because it may affect understanding, privacy, accessibility or technical protection. Its impact is indicative and must be interpreted in the page’s real context.

How to verify manually

Open the final URL and inspect the initial HTML and response headers with browser developer tools or curl. Repeat the check on representative templates and routes before drawing a conclusion.

Cautious correction

Review each image’s purpose: write equivalent alt text or an empty alt when purely decorative.

What it does NOT prove

This signal alone does not certify legal compliance or non-compliance, GDPR, WCAG or EAA; it is not a human or professional security audit and does not prove the presence or absence of all risk.
