Breach detection checks whether your email addresses were caught up in a known hack, and tells you which sites to change your password on. ## Check your accounts 1. Go to the [Breach Detection page](https://app.leavemealone.com/breach-detection). 2. Switch the toggle to **Enabled**. 3. Give it a few minutes. Once it's done, you'll see any hacks we found. We check every email address on your account: the one you log in with, and every email account you've connected. To do this we send those addresses to [Have I Been Pwned](https://haveibeenpwned.com), a trusted service that keeps a list of known hacks. We don't send anything else, and we only send your addresses while breach detection is switched on. ## When we check * As soon as you turn it on. * Whenever you connect a new email account. * Every week, if you're on a paid plan. ## What to do next If we find something, don't panic. It's very common, and it doesn't mean someone is in your email. See [What is breach detection?](/doc/what-is-breach-detection-DcUGNkni5t) for what each result means and which passwords to change. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
