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.
Removals that run on autopilot
With Detected Protect Plus, we don't just tell you where you're exposed — we do the work to get it removed, and we keep doing it.
It starts with a scan
We scan people-search sites and breach data for your personal information and flag every broker holding your records.
First removal requests are sent
We send removal requests to every covered data broker that may hold your information, so none of your records are left on their databases.
Requests are sent on repeat
We re-scan and send fresh waves of removal requests regularly, so brokers can't quietly re-list and start selling your information again.
We don't stop there
We keep tracking down new brokers and people-search sites, so your level of protection keeps improving over time.
Progress reports keep you informed
Track every request from your account dashboard and get regular privacy reports — so you always have total control over your personal data.

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.
