4. Third-Party Services
Our website may use third-party services such as Google Analytics, which collect, monitor and analyze usage data. These third-party service providers have their own privacy policies addressing how they use such information.
5. Dark Web Breach Lookup Service
Our Dark Web Search feature allows you to check if your email address or phone number has been exposed in known data breaches. This section explains how we handle data for this specific service.
5.1 No Data Retention
We do not store, log, cache, or retain any personal identifiers (email addresses or phone numbers) that you submit for breach lookups. All searches are processed transiently in real-time and are not saved to any database or log file.
5.2 How Searches Work
When you initiate a search, your query is transmitted directly to a third-party breach intelligence API solely for the purpose of returning breach exposure results. We act as a pass-through and do not build, maintain, or operate our own breach database. The search is a one-time, real-time lookup initiated entirely by you.
5.3 No Secondary Use of Data
We do not sell, share, enrich, profile, or perform any secondary use of the personal data you submit. Your search query is used exclusively to retrieve breach results and for no other purpose. We do not use cookies, analytics tracking, behavioral profiling, or marketing tools for this feature.
5.4 Authorization Requirement
By using this service, you confirm that you are searching for identifiers (email addresses or phone numbers) that you own or are legally authorized to check. Searching for data belonging to others without authorization may violate applicable laws.
5.5 Legal Basis for Processing
The legal basis for processing your data through the Dark Web Search feature is your user-initiated request. This processing is aligned with the requirements of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the California Consumer Privacy Act and California Privacy Rights Act (CCPA/CPRA), and the India Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDP). You have the right to not use this service, and no account or registration is required.
6. Data Security
We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered or disclosed.
7. Your Legal Rights
Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data, including the right to request access, correction, erasure, restriction, transfer, or to object to processing.
