This grade belongs to zerohour.uk. It is based on a bounded sample of up to 5 connected public pages plus public evidence. It is not a grade for any one page.

Automated EcoMark v4 approximation using up to 5 connected pages, DNS, active policy/sitemap discovery, browser security checks and lightweight performance diagnostics. Browser Run was blocked or incomplete, so the normal public HTML response was used instead. Analysis quality: good.

Improve

## Start with these changes.
1
efficiency

### Lazy-load below-the-fold media and remove autoplay.

Lighter pages consume less bandwidth and device work and remain usable on slower connections.
2
sovereignty

### Avoid concentrating most third-party delivery in one provider ecosystem.

A more portable and less concentrated stack gives organisations more control over technology and jurisdiction.
3
privacy

### Move commonly used assets and services first-party where practical.

Minimising tracking and third-party disclosure reduces profiling and unnecessary visitor data exposure.
