A relative ranking of preparedness among households like yours — not a probability.

12% of Americans 16+ received at least one data-breach notification in a single year — the only true per-person government probability.

data.breach.notice_rate

Only 17% of Americans have a credit freeze or fraud alert — both free since 2018. No causal effectiveness study exists, but a freeze blocks new-credit pulls by construction.

data.freeze.adoption

Manual DIY opt-outs removed 70% of people-search profiles within a week — beating every paid removal service; the worst paid service managed 4% in four months.

Questions

Plain answers

Do you store my passwords?

No. We check a hashed fragment against leak databases. The password never leaves your device.

Can you remove me from brokers?

We list every broker and the free opt-out. Paid removal services are in the Solutions library.

Is this a credit check?

No. It doesn’t touch your credit score.
