Data privacy shouldn't
be a hassle.
Detected helps you find exposed information, understand where your email appeared in known breaches, and take action to reduce your personal data footprint.
Breach exposure checks are powered by trusted breach-data sources. Removal support is available with Detected Protect Plus.
How Detected data removal works
Start with an exposure check
Enter your email in the Detected app. We check known breach records to see whether your email has appeared in public data leaks.
Understand what was exposed
Detected shows plain-English results so you can see which breaches involved your email and what types of information may have been included.
Take the right next steps
We guide you through important actions like changing reused passwords, enabling two-factor authentication, and securing accounts connected to that email.
Activate removal support
With Detected Protect Plus, we help submit opt-out and removal requests to supported people-search and data-broker sources that may display or sell personal information.
We keep checking
Privacy is not one-and-done. Detected helps track progress, rescan supported sources, and keep you informed when action is needed.

Why data removal matters
Your personal information can end up in breach databases, people-search sites, marketing lists, and data-broker platforms. Reducing that exposure can help lower unwanted contact, impersonation risk, phishing risk, and general privacy exposure.
Less public exposure
Reduce the amount of personal information available on people-search sites and data-broker platforms.
Better breach awareness
Know where your email has appeared in data leaks so you can take informed action.
More control over your data
