It crawls the web, including the deep dark web, looking for bits and pieces of confidential info you tell them you don't want out there. I was informed by Yahoo tuesday an attempt had been made to hack my email account and to change my password which I did. The next day I was reading about the Verizon/Yahoo deal and how Yahoo's data leak might affect that. The leaks occured in 2014 and they're just now disclosing that? At first they said 200m accounts had been hacked and then changed that to 500m accounts, half of Yahoo's 1b email accounts, so I figure my account was actually hacked rather than an attempt.

The possibility is great my medical records would have been captured as I get mail from my medical providers twice a week or more. Any of that mail has links to all of my medical records and SSN as well.

My concern is I would have to provide Matchlight with information I've never given out over the web to anyone, thus my question.

edit: I have actually given out the info in question, to LifeLock which I no longer use. MatchLight's software supposedly has some connection to LifeLock according to the following article.
