Your Privacy is Our Priority

SecurityScore.me ("we", "our", "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your personal data when you use our website and services.

1. What Data We Collect

We collect only what is needed to provide breach checks and monitoring:

Account

Email address, and name if you provide it when signing up or in settings.

Service data

Monitored email addresses, timestamps (e.g. last check), alert preferences, and breach snapshot metadata (breach names, counts) to power alerts.

Technical

IP, browser type, and similar data where needed for security and operation (e.g. rate limiting, abuse prevention).

What we do not collect

We never store passwords. We do not read or access your inbox or email content.

2. How We Use Your Data

We use your data to:

  • Provide one-time breach checks and scheduled re-checks using Have I Been Pwned (HIBP) breach data
  • Send email alerts when new breaches are added for your monitored emails
  • Manage your account, billing (via our payment processor), and support requests
  • Comply with legal obligations and protect against abuse

You can unsubscribe from breach alerts via the link in each email or via the notifications toggles in your account settings.

3. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal data

We may share your data with:

Processors / subprocessors

Vercel (hosting), Supabase (database and auth), our email delivery provider (transactional and breach-alert emails), and our payment processor (Stripe) for billing. Each processes data only to provide their service to us.

We store analytics events in our own systems: event name, optional properties (e.g. plan, breach count), and where applicable user_id or session_id. We use this to understand usage and improve the product. We do not use analytics to identify you personally beyond what is needed for support or legal purposes.

You can limit tracking by declining optional cookies in our consent banner (where offered) and by not signing in when you prefer not to be associated with events. For questions about analytics or opt-out, contact us at info@securityscore.me.

We use the HIBP API for breach lookups. See HIBP Privacy Policy.

8. Lawful Basis and Retention

We process your data on the basis of contract (to provide the service), legitimate interest (security, analytics, abuse prevention), and where required by law. We retain data only as long as needed for these purposes or as required by law.

9. International Transfers

Your data may be processed in countries outside the European Economic Area (e.g. by our hosting and service providers). We use providers that offer appropriate safeguards (e.g. standard contractual clauses) where required by applicable data protection law.

10. Children's Privacy

Our services are not intended for users under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.
