Hey all, thanks for the support. There are so many sites which sell and share sensitive personal information without anyone’s consent, and I've seen a lot of folks that don't know *a lot* of it can be removed. Your address doesn't need to be publicly available on Google. 🧹 We’re trying to prevent the avoidable harm that comes from the current state of how easily findable much of that information is. That avoidable harm ranges from annoyances (spam) to increased susceptibility to hacks and serious risks such as stalking. @rachelvrabec covered a lot here, but I’ll add one thing. My favorite aspect of Kanary is that—as a team—we’ve been thoroughly focused on making a tool that *everyone* can use. Whether you can afford a subscription or not, we provide tools to help you find, monitor, and remove these risks. And regardless of if you’re a serious privacy head, or someone who doesn’t care or think about it much, everyone should at least know what's out there and be empowered to do something about it. Happy to answer any questions, and thanks for stopping by and checking out Kanary!

Hi Product Hunt! It’s been 3 years since our first launch and we’re excited to share our new free product with you. We’ve been pouring our hearts into this one because we think everyone should have an easy way to stay on top of their safety & privacy online. It’s crazy how much information pops up about us (from even simple Google searches) and ends up in the wrong hands. But, most people don’t realize they can remove this private info because of new regulations! Imagine, no more creepy sites showing where you live, your birthday, or who your grandparents are. We want to give *everyone* the power to be free from unwanted & unnecessary attention online. So how does it work? Our free app finds where your name, email, phone number, and home address are listed publicly. Then we help you remove them with step by step guides. Early members asked us if we could help them remove their information—so we also launched a paid product that *automatically* removes harmful information for you and your family. We’re excited that data privacy regulations are making it easier to protect our information. And we’re eager to help people easily use and benefit from these protections. We are not affiliated with any data brokers, big tech companies, or marketing sites, and never share or sell your data. At this time, Kanary is only available for people living in the US. We’d love for you to try out the free product, let us know what you think, and get involved!
