Permitted uses

InfoBreach is built for legitimate security, fraud-prevention, and identity-verification work. Examples of permitted use:

  • Monitoring your own organisation's domain for credential exposure.
  • Verifying whether a customer's account has been involved in a breach as part of a fraud workflow.
  • Security research, journalism, and incident response with appropriate authorisation.
  • Building anti-fraud, anti-takeover, and identity-verification features into your own products.

Prohibited uses

You may not use the service for, or in connection with:

  • Stalking, harassment, intimidation, or threats against any person.
  • Doxxing. Publishing or threatening to publish a private individual's personal information.
  • Unauthorised access (computer misuse): using credentials surfaced by the service to log into anyone's account without explicit authorisation.
  • Credential stuffing or brute-force attempts against third-party services.
  • Identity theft or financial fraud.
  • Domestic abuse, intimate-partner surveillance, or any form of intimate-partner monitoring.
  • Discrimination on the basis of any protected characteristic.
  • Any activity that violates applicable law.
  • Reselling or redistributing breach data or search output as a standalone product.

Enforcement

We monitor for prohibited activity. Violations result in immediate account termination without refund, forfeiture of paid time, and where appropriate, referral to law enforcement with a copy of your activity log. We do not negotiate with violators; appeals are limited to factual errors in our determination.
