The badge
A small image linking to your certificate. It is deliberately boring to look at and precise about what it says.
What it says
The site passed, you proved you control the domain, and it is in date.
It passed once, but the certificate has lapsed. Re-run the checklist.
The inspection did not clear the bar.
The certificate was revoked.
No such certificate.
The badge changes on its own. Nothing is cached longer than a few minutes, so a certificate you withdraw stops claiming to be verified almost immediately — even on a page you no longer control.
Adding it to your site
One line, with your own serial in place of the example. It is an image and a link, nothing else — no script, no tracker, nothing that can slow your page down.

Checking a badge you have seen
You do not have to trust the page showing it, or us. Every certificate is signed with Ed25519 over its canonical form, and the public key is published. Verify it yourself:
curl -s https://livecheck.net/api/verify/LC-7K3M-9QXZ-2WPD | jqThe response carries the signed record, the signature and the key, so a sceptical reader can reach their own verdict without asking us for anything. It also says whether the certificate has expired or been withdrawn, which a signature alone cannot.
