Field notes
The homepage says Datawake stores its records in browser-local storage and sends nothing to its servers, presenting this as a design choice rather than a promise to trust blindly. It also offers an email-breach lookup that it says is powered by HaveIBeenPwned; deeper Pro tools are described as coming soon.
