A national central bank is using Cloudflare -- risks? (sopuli.xyz)

A national central bank that keeps track of bank accounts, credit records, delinquency, etc for everyone in the country has their website on Cloudflare. People are instructed to check their credit records on that site.

The question is: suppose you don’t use the site. Suppose you only request your records offline. What are the chances that Cloudflare handles your sensitive records?

I guess this might be hard to answer. I assume it comes down to whether to central bank itself uses their own website to print records to satisfy an offline request. And I assume it’s also a question of whether the commercial banks use the website of the central bank to feed it. Correct?
