Frequently Asked Questions

What is a data breach?

A data breach occurs when unauthorized individuals gain access to sensitive data, typically from a website or service. This can include email addresses, passwords, personal information, and financial data.

What should I do if my email was breached?

Immediately change your password for any accounts using that email, especially if you reused passwords. Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on all important accounts. Consider using a password manager to generate unique passwords for each account.

How does this tool work?

We check your email against the Have I Been Pwned database, which collects data from publicly disclosed breaches. This database contains billions of records from thousands of data breaches.

Is it safe to enter my email here?

Yes. We only send your email to the Have I Been Pwned API to check for breaches. We don't store your email or any results. The check is performed securely over HTTPS.

Why am I in breaches I don't recognize?

Sometimes your data appears in breaches from services you used years ago, or from companies that had your data through third parties. Some breaches are from credential stuffing lists compiled from multiple sources.
