Free digital footprint audit

I run background checks on people for a living. This is what I'd find on you.

100+ sources checked. Breach databases, data brokers, people-search sites, leaked passwords. Your full report and a video walkthrough from me within 24 hours. Free.

No card. No sales calls. No obligation.

The problem

Your data is more exposed than you think

You've Googled yourself before. Maybe you found an old profile, an address you didn't expect to be public, a photo you forgot existed. That was the surface.

Your home address, your mobile number, your email. Right now, these are listed on websites you've never heard of. Anyone who types your name into the right search can find them. A scammer, a cold-caller, an ex. That's the reality for most UK adults, and it probably includes you.

I know this because I look at these databases every day. I do this for a living. Every single person I've assessed has had the same reaction: they had no idea how much was out there.

The average UK adult appears in 15+ data broker databases. Most have no idea.

The real problem

Why most people do nothing about this

You've probably looked at services like DeleteMe or Incogni. They charge a monthly fee. And they cover a small slice of the problem.

What they do is send automated requests to a fixed list of companies that sell personal data, asking them to remove your details. That's one category out of six. It's like hiring a locksmith who changes your front door lock while leaving every window open, your back door unlocked, and copies of your key scattered across town.

These tools don't check databases of stolen passwords. They don't search for accounts you forgot you created ten years ago. They know almost nothing about UK-specific sources. When you register to vote, for example, your name and address go onto a public list that companies buy and resell. 192.com lists millions of UK residents by name and address. Credit agencies sell your details for marketing purposes. None of that is on these tools' radar.

To be fair, most of these services aren't terrible. They were built for US consumers and bolt on UK coverage as an afterthought. If you're in Michigan, they're probably fine. If you're in Manchester, you're paying for a tool that misses most of what's out there about you.

I've seen this hundreds of times. Someone suspects their data is out there, gets overwhelmed, and parks it. The exposure stays. The risk builds.

The outcome

What it looks like when you know

Right now, you don't know which companies hold your data or how much of it has leaked. That feeling sits in the background.

Picture opening your inbox and finding a 20-page report with your name on it. It shows every account linked to you, every data breach you appear in, and every company listing your details for sale. All scored, ranked, and explained in plain English.

Within 24 hours, you get a recorded video from me walking you through what it all means. Think of it like getting blood test results back from a doctor: you could read the numbers yourself, but having someone tell you what's normal and what needs attention makes all the difference. That's what the video does for your digital exposure.

Not a sales call. A personalised recording you watch on your own time and act on when you're ready. If you'd rather have someone take care of everything for you, that option exists, but nobody will chase you about it.

We check six categories. Most tools check one.

Data Brokers
Companies buying and selling your personal details
Breach Databases
Databases of stolen information from hacked companies
People-Search Sites
Websites listing your name, address, and phone number
Public Records
Electoral roll, Companies House, court records
Social Platforms
Accounts you may have forgotten about
Leaked Passwords
Lists of exposed login details from breaches

How it works

How the Digital Footprint Audit works

Within minutes, you'll see everything that's out there about you online. Within 24 hours, you'll have a video from me explaining what it means and what to do about it.

Here's how it works. You submit your name and email address. Optionally, a phone number and city for a deeper scan. An automated system checks your details against 100+ sources in six categories: companies selling your data, databases of stolen information, people-search websites, public records, social media, and lists of leaked passwords.

You get a branded 20+ page report showing everything found. Every finding is scored and graded A through F, so you can see at a glance how exposed you are. I'm talking specific accounts, specific breaches, specific companies listing your data, specific passwords that have been exposed.

Your exposure, graded A through F

Then I review your results personally and record a video walkthrough. I explain what the findings mean in plain language, what to fix first, and what you can safely ignore. That video lands in your inbox within 24 hours.

Your report will have your name on the cover. The accounts listed will be yours. The breaches will be ones that affected you. This is an investigation into your personal data.

This kind of assessment normally sits behind a corporate fee. I offer it free because, after 400+ investigations, the most effective way to show someone what an investigator can do is to just do it.

The difference

What makes this different from everything else

Most privacy tools watch a fixed list of companies that sell personal data. That's like checking one room in a house with six.

I scan all six: companies selling your data, databases of stolen passwords, websites listing your address and phone number, public records, social media, and lists of leaked login details. I cover UK sources that US-built tools don't know exist: the electoral roll, 192.com, credit agency marketing lists. The sources that actually matter if you live here.

I review every result personally. You get a recorded video walkthrough within 24 hours covering what was found, what it means, and what to do about it. No sales calls. No Zoom bookings.

You get the full report, the action plan, the removal instructions, and a 200-page dossier covering every UK data source and how to get off it. Nothing is held back.

What you get

Everything included in your free audit

What you receive
We show you everywhere your personal information appears
Your details scanned against 100+ sources across companies selling your data, databases of stolen information, websites listing your name and address, public records, social media, and lists of leaked passwords. This is the same source list I use in paid investigations.
A 20+ page report with your name on it
Every account found, every breach you appear in, every company listing your details. Scored and graded A through F so you can see at a glance how exposed you are and where the biggest problems sit.
A personalised video review from me, within 24 hours
I review your results and record a video explaining what matters, what can wait, and what to act on first. Think of it like a doctor walking you through test results. This is a recording you watch on your own time.
How to act on it
A prioritised action plan
Every finding ranked by urgency: critical, high, medium, low. Each one has a time estimate and a direct link. Think of it as a to-do list for your online privacy, sorted by what matters most.
Step-by-step removal instructions for UK data sources
How to get your name off the electoral roll's public version (15 minutes). How to remove yourself from 192.com (10 minutes). How to stop credit agencies selling your details for marketing. How to send legal deletion requests. Each step has the exact process, the exact link, and how long it takes.
A walkthrough for deleting old accounts
Every platform found in your audit, grouped by how hard it is to delete (easy, medium, hard), with direct links to each removal page.
A legal letter demanding companies delete your data
A template you can copy and send to any company holding your personal information. UK law (GDPR, Article 17) requires them to comply within 30 days. If they don't, the Information Commissioner's Office gets involved.
Your reference material
The UK Data Removal Intelligence Dossier (200+ pages)
Every named UK data source, every removal process, every escalation path. I built this from real investigation work. It's the companion to your audit and covers everything you need to go further on your own.

Everything listed here is free. No card, no subscription, no catch.

What to do after you get your audit

No risk. No card. No sales calls.

Your details are used to run your audit and nothing else. They're never stored, never sold, and never shared with anyone.

If the audit finds nothing about you online, I'll tell you that. I'm not going to invent a risk score to push you towards a paid service.

There's no payment, no credit card, and no subscription. Your video review is a personalised recording covering your findings and how to act on them. You receive everything listed above and you decide what happens next.

If you'd prefer to have everything handled for you, there's an optional upgrade. It's entirely your choice and nobody will contact you about it unless you ask.

Your details are never stored, never sold, never shared.

Common questions

Everything you might be wondering

What exactly do I get?
An automated scan of your details against 100+ sources. A personalised 20+ page report showing everything found. A recorded video from me reviewing your results and explaining what to do. Step-by-step removal instructions. A legal letter template. A 200-page dossier covering every UK data source. All free, all yours to keep.
Why is this free?
Showing you what I can find is more convincing than telling you about it. The audit gives you real, useful information at no cost. Paid services exist if you want deeper investigation or want me to handle the cleanup, but there's no obligation and no pitch unless you ask.
Is my data safe with you?
Your details are used to run the audit and nothing else. They're never stored in any database, never sold, and never shared. You can request deletion at any time.
Why do you ask for my phone number and city?
You don't have to give them. Name and email are enough. Phone and city help me check more sources, especially websites that list people by location or mobile number. More details means more complete results.
How is this different from DeleteMe or Incogni?
Those services charge a monthly fee and send automated requests to a list of companies that sell personal data. One category. I scan six, check databases of stolen passwords and leaked login details, cover UK sources that US tools don't know about, and personally review your results before recording a video walkthrough. To be fair, those services work for US consumers. For the UK, they miss most of what matters.
Who reviews my results?
Me. Aaron Barnes-Wilding. UK-based investigator, background in financial crime. The person on this site is the person reviewing your results and recording your video.
How long does it take?
Your automated report arrives within minutes. My video review follows within 24 hours.
Will someone call me?
No. No phone calls, no Zoom bookings, no sales follow-up. You get a personalised video recording you watch on your own time. If you want to take things further, you reach out on your own terms.
Is there a catch?
You get the full report, the video, the removal instructions, and the 200-page dossier. It's all yours whether or not you ever contact me again. An optional upgrade exists if you'd rather have everything handled for you, but you'll only hear about it if you ask.
