The Identity Theft Check feature is only available to users with the Premium subscription plan.
Your phone number is your ID in banking apps, online stores, social media, and other services. If someone acquires data linked to your phone number, they can easily impersonate you—and, for example, access your bank accounts or get a loan in your name.
The Identity Theft Check feature checks your phone number against databases of leaks. After running the check, we will show you all websites that have leaked account data associated with this phone number. We will also display the categories of data that were leaked, and provide recommendations on what you can do about the leaks. In addition to your own phone number, you can also check phone numbers of your family members. All phone numbers that you add will be checked automatically on a regular basis. If new leaks are discovered, you will receive a notification on your device.
Before the app checks phone numbers for leaked data, it doubly encodes them using a hash function. This means the phone numbers you submit never leave your device.
