Frequently Asked Questions
Why is auditing your digital footprint important?▼
Forgotten accounts often retain outdated passwords, security questions, and personal data. If an old platform suffers a breach, those credentials can be weaponized against you. Routine audits allow you to identify and delete dormant accounts.
Is this digital footprint audit private?▼
Yes. OSINTScan processes your search entirely in ephemeral memory. No search history, queries, or results are logged in any database.
How can I delete accounts that I discover?▼
Visit each detected profile, log in, and use the platform's account settings to delete your profile. For guidance, consult our Search Removal Guide.
