3. Data We Collect
• First and last name, email address, hashed password (bcrypt cost 12).
• Postal address, phone number, country, VAT number (for invoices).
• Technical and security data: IP addresses at sign-up and login, your account identifier, the type of searches you perform (for example email search, domain search or raw search) and audit logs of unlock operations (timestamp, account identifier and internal leak identifier).
• Contact form messages: the content of your message, your email address, the topic you pick, the optional reference you add, your IP address, your user agent, your locale and the status we give the message while we handle it, processed to answer your request on the basis of our legitimate interest in replying to people who write to us (GDPR art. 6(1)(f)) and kept for 12 months.
• Breach and leak datasets: personal data contained in breaches and stealer logs that were accessible on the internet without our involvement in the original incident. Depending on the source this may include email addresses, usernames, passwords or password hashes and other profile or technical data that were present in the leaked file.
• Special categories of data: we do not seek to index special categories of personal data (such as data revealing health, political opinions, religious beliefs, trade-union membership, sexual orientation or sex life) or data relating to criminal convictions and offences. Where we become aware that such data is present in a dataset, we filter, restrict or remove it.

4. Retention
• Inactive accounts: deleted after 12 months.

• Encrypted backups: 12 months.
• Invoices: 10 years (French accounting rules).
• Breach and leak datasets: raw breach files and stealer logs are kept for as long as they remain relevant to detect and remediate security incidents and as long as they are still technically accessible from their original public sources. When a dataset is no longer relevant or accessible we delete it or reduce it to a minimal index.

5. Processors
OVH (France), Hetzner (Finland), Cloudflare (DNS / WAF), Stripe, NOWPayments, CoinGate, Mailtrap, Zoho Mail, Tawk.to, Slack, Discord and Telegram. Each provider relies on GDPR Standard Contractual Clauses or the EU-US DPF when processing outside the EEA. Our sign-in, sign-up and public forms are protected by Google reCAPTCHA (Google Ireland Limited / Google LLC), which receives connection data and interaction signals for that purpose.
6. International Transfers
Data may transit through Cloudflare, Stripe, Slack, Discord, Tawk.to or Telegram servers located outside the EEA. These transfers are covered by the SCC referenced in each vendor's Data Processing Addendum.
7. Security
All connections use TLS 1.3. User passwords are salted + hashed (bcrypt 12). Leaked credentials are stored in clear text for full-text search; access is rate-limited, logged and restricted to authenticated users. You acknowledge this residual risk when using the Service.
8. Your GDPR Rights
You may access, rectify, erase, restrict, object to or port your data. Requests: contact@leakradar.io. We reply within one month. To have leaked data removed from our search results, you can also use our data removal request form, which needs no account: you confirm the request by email and our team reviews it manually.
9. Complaints
You can lodge a complaint with the CNIL (www.cnil.fr).
10. Changes
Material changes will be announced at least 30 days in advance (email and in-app banner).
11. Data From Third Party Breaches
Most of the personal data we index in our leak datasets does not come directly from you. It comes from breaches and stealer logs that were exposed by third parties without our involvement in the original incident.
Source of the data. We collect this data from sources that were technically accessible on the internet (for example public forums, paste sites, messaging channels or shared links) and from threat intelligence feeds that rely on such sources. We do not hack systems, bypass authentication, break encryption, buy stolen databases or pay for access to closed criminal forums.
Legal basis. Our legal basis is our legitimate interest, and the legitimate interest of our customers, in detecting and responding to data breaches and securing information systems (GDPR art. 6(1)(f) and recital 49).
Information of affected persons (art. 14(5)(b)). Because these datasets may concern very large numbers of people and are often incomplete or hard to link to reliable contact details, informing each affected person individually would be impossible or would involve a disproportionate effort within the meaning of GDPR article 14(5)(b). This public notice therefore serves as the information measure foreseen by that provision.
Your rights. If your personal data appears in our index, you may at any time ask whether we hold data about you, request a copy, ask us to erase it or restrict its use, and object at any time to processing carried out on the basis of legitimate interest (GDPR art. 21). We provide an easy and free removal procedure. Requests can be sent to contact@leakradar.io and we answer within one month where possible.
