LeakGuard

Terms of Service

Last updated: 2026-08-01 Effective date: 2026-08-01

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern access to and use of LeakGuard, a dark web credential monitoring service for small businesses (the "Service"). The Service is provided by Magellan Software LLC ("LeakGuard," "we," "us," or "our").

By creating an account, starting a subscription, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you use the Service for a company or other organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization, and "you" includes that organization.

1. Service Overview

LeakGuard provides monitoring, alerting, dashboard history, and remediation guidance based on public and commercial breach-intelligence sources. The Service is intended to help customers identify potential exposure of business domains, business email addresses, and related credential metadata. The Service also runs non-invasive external security-posture checks on the customer's monitored domains using publicly available information (such as published DNS records, public TLS certificates, and public domain-registration records) to surface configuration and exposure issues. These checks do not require the customer to prove domain ownership and do not actively scan, probe, or attack third-party systems.

LeakGuard is a monitoring and information service only. We do not guarantee that we will detect every leak, credential exposure, compromise, breach, or security incident. We do not guarantee that use of the Service will prevent breaches, fraud, ransomware, unauthorized access, account takeover, or any other security event.

2. Customer Authorization And Responsibilities

You may use the Service only for domains, email addresses, phone numbers, accounts, and other assets that you own, control, administer, or are otherwise authorized to monitor.

You are responsible for:

  • Providing accurate account, billing, domain, and monitoring information.
  • Keeping your account credentials secure.
  • Verifying that you have authorization to monitor each submitted domain or email address.
  • Reviewing alerts and deciding what actions to take.
  • Maintaining your own security program, backups, access controls, incident response process, and compliance program.
  • Complying with laws and third-party terms that apply to your business and your use of the Service.

You must not use the Service to monitor, enumerate, investigate, or collect information about assets you do not own or have permission to monitor.

3. Acceptable Use

You must not:

  • Use the Service for unlawful, abusive, deceptive, harassing, or unauthorized surveillance purposes.
  • Submit personal data, domains, or accounts that you are not authorized to monitor.
  • Attempt to access another customer's account or data.
  • Interfere with, overload, scan, reverse engineer, or disrupt the Service or its providers.
  • Use alerts or breach metadata to attempt credential stuffing, phishing, extortion, doxxing, or other harmful activity.
  • Store or upload leaked passwords, raw breach dumps, payment card data, Social Security numbers, government IDs, or other prohibited high-risk data in the Service.
  • Resell, sublicense, or redistribute Service data except as expressly allowed in a written agreement with LeakGuard.

We may suspend or terminate access if we reasonably believe your use violates these Terms, creates security risk, or could harm LeakGuard, another customer, a provider, or the public.

4. Accounts And Access

You must provide accurate registration information and keep it current. You are responsible for all activity under your account. Notify us promptly at contact@leakguard.me if you suspect unauthorized access.

The Service may support account deletion, cancellation, and other self-service controls in the dashboard. Some actions, including external billing record deletion or export, may require support or provider workflows.

5. Subscription, Billing, And Cancellation

Paid plans are billed through Stripe or another payment processor we identify. Stripe handles card numbers, payment methods, invoices, and payment processing. LeakGuard stores limited billing state such as customer IDs, subscription IDs, plan identifiers, subscription status, and billing-period metadata.

Subscription prices, plan limits, trial terms, renewal periods, taxes, and features are shown at checkout or in the dashboard. Unless stated otherwise at checkout, subscriptions renew automatically until canceled.

You may cancel through the Stripe Customer Portal, the dashboard billing controls, or support where applicable. Cancellation stops future renewal but does not automatically refund past charges unless required by law or expressly stated in a written refund policy. Stripe billing records may remain in Stripe for tax, accounting, chargeback, fraud-prevention, audit, and legal retention obligations.

6. Third-Party Providers And Data Sources

The Service depends on third-party infrastructure and data providers, which may include Supabase, Vercel, Stripe, Resend, Twilio, Have I Been Pwned (HIBP), LeakCheck, Anthropic, and other configured providers. Providers are named here once they are active; we will update this list before enabling a new one.

Third-party sources may change availability, pricing, rate limits, terms, coverage, data quality, or response formats. LeakGuard is not responsible for third-party outages, omissions, delays, inaccuracies, or provider decisions. HIBP data is subject to HIBP's terms and attribution requirements.

AI-generated remediation guidance, where enabled, may be produced using a third-party AI provider and is general informational guidance. It is not legal, compliance, incident-response, or cybersecurity consulting advice specific to your full environment.

7. Customer Data And Privacy

Customer data is handled as described in the Privacy Policy. You retain ownership of your submitted business data. You grant LeakGuard the limited rights needed to operate, secure, monitor, support, improve, and provide the Service.

You are responsible for ensuring that your submission of monitored emails, alert phone numbers, domain information, and related data is lawful and authorized.

8. Security And Service Limitations

LeakGuard uses reasonable technical and organizational safeguards for the Service, including encryption-at-rest patterns for scan-required personal data. No service, network, database, provider, model, or monitoring tool is perfectly secure or complete.

Alerts may be delayed, incomplete, inaccurate, duplicated, or unavailable because of provider limits, source coverage, internet routing, account configuration, email/SMS delivery failures, or other factors. You should independently verify high-impact alerts before taking irreversible action.

Optional SMS Security Alerts

If a signed-in account holder enables SMS security alerts and provides a phone number in their authenticated account Settings, they consent to receive optional, one-way transactional security-alert text messages about newly discovered credential leaks or newly critical security-posture issues. Message frequency varies because alerts are event-driven. Message and data rates may apply. Consent is not a condition of purchase.

Reply STOP to unsubscribe or HELP for help. Carrier or provider delivery may be delayed or unavailable and is not guaranteed. For support, contact contact@leakguard.me. See the Privacy Policy. These messages contain no marketing or promotional content.

9. Intellectual Property

LeakGuard and its licensors own the Service, software, user interface, workflows, documentation, trademarks, and other intellectual property, excluding Customer Data. These Terms do not transfer ownership of LeakGuard intellectual property to you.

You may use the Service only as allowed by these Terms and your subscription plan.

10. Confidentiality

Each party may receive nonpublic information from the other party. The receiving party must use reasonable care to protect that information and may use it only to perform or receive the Service, comply with law, enforce these Terms, or protect security and safety.

11. Feedback

If you provide suggestions, ideas, or feedback, you grant LeakGuard permission to use them without restriction or compensation, provided we do not disclose your confidential information or Customer Data in doing so.

12. Disclaimers

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available." To the maximum extent allowed by law, LeakGuard disclaims all warranties, express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, accuracy, availability, and security.

LeakGuard does not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, fully accurate, fully secure, or that every breach, leak, credential exposure, or security incident will be detected or prevented.

13. Limitation Of Liability

To the maximum extent allowed by law, LeakGuard will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost revenue, lost business, lost goodwill, lost data, business interruption, security incidents, or breach-response costs, even if advised of the possibility of those damages.

To the maximum extent allowed by law, LeakGuard's total liability for all claims relating to the Service or these Terms is capped at the fees you paid to LeakGuard for the Service during the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limitations. In those jurisdictions, the limitations apply to the fullest extent permitted by law.

14. Indemnification

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless LeakGuard from claims, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising from your Customer Data, your unauthorized monitoring activity, your violation of these Terms, your violation of law, or your misuse of the Service.

15. Suspension And Termination

You may stop using the Service or cancel your subscription as described in these Terms. We may suspend or terminate access if required by law, if a provider requires it, if payment fails, if you materially breach these Terms, or if continued access creates legal, security, operational, or reputational risk.

After termination, we may delete or retain data as described in the Privacy Policy, these Terms, product controls, and applicable retention obligations.

16. Changes To The Service Or Terms

We may modify the Service or these Terms from time to time. If changes are material, we will provide notice through the Service, email, or another reasonable method. Continued use after the effective date of updated Terms means you accept the updated Terms.

17. Governing Law And Venue

The intended default is the laws of the State of Georgia, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, with venue in state or federal courts serving Fulton County, Georgia or the Alpharetta, Georgia area, as appropriate.
