Address your public exposure after a data breach.
The notification says change your password. It doesn't mention the home address, phone number, employer, and family details already listed on broker sites. That's what we take down, and we re-file every time it comes back.

A breach is one leak. Broker sites are the wider exposure.
The notification tells you to change your password. It doesn't mention the broker sites already publishing your home address. That's the part we work to take down. Exposed broker data is what turns a breach into identity theft.
Breach data plus broker data equals complete profiles
A breach leaks your email and password hash. Attackers then search broker sites for that email and find your full name, home address, phone, employer, and family. The breach is the key. Broker data is the map.
You're notified about one breach. You're already listed on far more sites
The notification names one incident. Meanwhile, broker sites are already publishing your information for anyone to search. No hacking required.
Family members are exposed by association
Broker profiles list household members as "associated people." A breach involving your email lets attackers search your name and pull up spouse, children, parents, and their contact details. One person's breach becomes the family's.

Scan for broker exposure after the breach
We scan the web to find listings publishing your personal data. The scan shows you exactly which sites have your name, address, phone number, and family details, and how attackers could combine this with breached data.
Submit removal requests across the brokers we cover
Removal requests go out to every identified broker at the same time: opt-out forms, formal deletion requests, and requests to networks of sites that share the same underlying database.
Verify each removal was processed
Each removal is independently verified. Brokers that don't comply get persistent follow-up. Persistent listings get additional remediation rounds. Your dashboard shows real-time progress across every site we cover.
Monitor for re-listings and future breaches
Brokers rebuild profiles from public records. We run a full scan every month, and when a listing comes back, we catch it and restart the removal. Breach monitoring alerts you to new breaches involving your email, so you can act before new breach data meets any remaining broker exposure.

Common questions after a data breach
I got a breach notification. What should I do first?
Change your passwords and turn on 2FA for the breached account first. Then run a broker scan. Breach data combined with a broker-published address, phone number, and family details is what fuels identity theft.
How is data privacy removal different from credit monitoring?
Credit monitoring alerts you after fraud happens. Privacy removal works upstream: it reduces the personal data attackers can use in the first place. Fewer listings means less raw material for fraud.
Will removing my data from brokers protect me from future breaches?
No. Brokers and breaches are separate problems. But removing broker data means a future breach exposes less. A leaked email can't be cross-referenced with a home address that's no longer listed.
What if my data reappears on data broker sites?
It frequently does. Brokers rebuild profiles from public records on a cycle. When a listing comes back, we catch it and restart the removal. That matters even more after a breach, since breached data itself can become a source for brokers.
