Is my search private?
How LeakedSource handles the privacy of your scans and searches: encryption, storage, and what we never do.
Searching for your own leaked data shouldn't create a new privacy problem. Here's how we handle it.
Homepage scans
Free homepage scans do not require an account. Scan results are cached only temporarily to improve performance. We do not sell, share, or build marketing profiles from the addresses people scan.
Registered account searches
For signed-in users, search history is stored securely in your account so you can review past searches and power your monitoring. That history is visible only to you (and to our systems that operate the service). It is never shared with third parties or used for marketing purposes.
Transport and infrastructure security
All connections to LeakedSource are encrypted via HTTPS, and our infrastructure sits behind Cloudflare's security network. Payments are processed by Stripe — we never see or store your full card number.
What we will never do
- Sell your searches or your email address
- Alert anyone else that you searched for a particular identity
- Display your sensitive breach data to other users — detailed records are gated behind authentication and identity verification, and sensitive fields are masked by default (see Why is my breach data masked?)
The fine print
The full details of what we collect and how long we keep it are in our Privacy Policy. If you have a privacy question that isn't answered there, use the contact form — a human reads those.
