New tool checks to see if your data has been leaked. Try it now.

Surfshark’s new free Data Leak Checker tool couldn’t come at a better time. Seemingly every day there’s a new report of a data breach from Fidelity to MoneyGram to Comcast and it’s overwhelming — and unfair — for customers to keep track it all themselves.

Just enter your email on Surfshark’s Data Leak Checker website and it tells you if your data was found in leaks, which leaks it was found in, and what was leaked. Some of the leaks will be paywalled, but the free version still tells you all the information about up to six leaks as well as the full number of leaks. If you’re wary of sharing your email address with yet another company, Surfshark ensures that it won’t be shared for marketing purposes.

For the full report, you have to sign up for Surfshark Alert, which monitors your personal data through your email address and notifies you when it leaks.

The Data Leak Checker checks for both database and malware-based data leaks. In the report the information is split up onto database and malware-based leaks, so it looks at both the large-scale data breaches you read about in the news and anything leaked due to malware on your device.

There are other free tools on Surfshark’s website including a map of global data breach statistics that’s updated regularly. Right now, the map sits at 18 million breached accounts reminding you how important the Data Leak Checker tool can be.
