FAQs
Identity theft is when someone fraudulently uses another person's name and personal information to get credit, obtain loans, make purchases, etc. Thieves typically exploit this stolen data to open new credit card accounts, take out loans, drain bank accounts, make unauthorized purchases, file fake tax returns, or even commit crimes under the victim's name, often causing lasting damage to the victim's credit, finances, and reputation.
There are many signs that may indicate that your identity has been stolen. Here are a few to look out for: unfamiliar bank transactions, errors on your credit report, new debts for loans that you never applied for, unfamiliar credit card charges, unfamiliar medical bills, and your credit score dropping for no obvious reason.
There are many ways to avoid identity theft, including using strong passwords and PINs, limiting the amount of personal information you share online, and monitoring your bank statements for suspicious transactions. You can also help protect yourself using software from Avast which can monitor your emails for scams like spoofing and phishing.
If you become a victim of identity theft, change your passwords and login info on compromised online accounts. Notify your credit card companies. File an identity theft report with the relevant governmental authority. Managing these processes can be difficult, confusing, and time-consuming without help. That's why your Avast Secure Identity subscription includes an identity restoration specialist team to help you sort things out after your identity has been stolen.
Yes, Premium includes identity restoration support to help if your identity is stolen, so you do not have to handle everything on your own. It also includes identity theft reimbursement coverage of up to $1 million for eligible losses and expenses if something goes wrong.
Personal information exposed in a data breach can include key details such as your email address, phone number, and associated data. Avast Secure Identity monitors those important details so you can see what has been found and act early.
Your information usually ends up on the dark web because of a data breach at a company or website where you had an account, not because of anything you did wrong. Common paths include: a service you use gets hacked and its user database is leaked or sold; malware on your device steals saved passwords or card details; a phishing scam tricks you into handing over credentials; or your details get scraped from public sources and bundled together. Once exposed, that data is often traded or posted on dark web forums and marketplaces where criminals buy it for fraud or identity theft.
If your personal information is found in a breach, act as early as you can. Start by reviewing what was exposed, then change affected passwords, secure your accounts, and watch for suspicious activities such as unusual logins, charges, or account changes.
Yes. Avast Secure Identity alerts you if your personal information, like your email address or phone number, appears in breaches or on the dark web, all in one place.
No. Avast Secure Identity helps you stay on top of potential identity issues without having to track every account on your own. The free experience alerts you if your personal information appears in data breaches or on the dark web, while Premium helps you monitor suspicious activities across your accounts with alerts, step-by-step guidance, and coverage if something goes wrong.

Important information about your subscription
What is a subscription
A subscription is the commitment from Avast to you, our customer, that we will continuously work to protect, optimise and connect you virtually in exchange for an annual fee that we bill to your bank card or PayPal account. Your subscription fee enables Avast to support you with the service you selected to subscribe to until you cancel your subscription. If your subscription has expired we can help you here.
The selected period for which you pay is measured in months and could be one month, one year or more years in length, depending on the service you selected to subscribe to from Avast. At the end of the selected period for which you have paid Avast will automatically charge your stored payment details for you to ensure ongoing, uninterrupted service.
Terms for auto-renewal and pricing
A fee for the next subscription period will be charged at the then current published price. The fees will be charged to your stored payment details up to 35 days prior to the anniversary of your subscription to Avast. These fees are subject to change. For annual subscriptions, we will notify you up to 65 days ahead of the anniversary of your subscription to remind you of the anniversary as well as the subscription fee that will be billed for the subsequent period.
Avast products are sold as continuous subscriptions, a term used to describe the uninterrupted support we give you through our software for the period of your subscription. This means that your subscription continues without interruption unless you manually cancel it before the next billing date or in case we are unable to charge your stored payment details when due. We apply this concept of continuous subscription to ensure your service never gets interrupted and you continue to benefit from our service offering.
Avast offers you many different services to which you can subscribe annually and we often discount the first year of that subscription to make it easier for you to onboard with us and enjoy our market leading services. This means that your first payment period may be discounted compared to the subsequent periods, a price difference that we make clear to you when you first selected to subscribe to our service. Prior to the anniversary of your subscription, we communicate the next payment period fee via a billing reminder.
Subscription updates, cancellations, and refunds
Avast only bills your stored payment method and has no other way of billing you for your ongoing Avast service. This means that you are responsible for agreeing to store your own payment method at first purchase and for keeping it updated to ensure that your service remains uninterrupted throughout the subscription period and relationship with us. You can cancel your subscription via the Avast Account that is linked to the email address you provided during the subscription purchase. Please visit here for more information and instructions on how to do this.
You can request a refund by contacting Avast Customer Support here within 30 days of your initial subscription or the anniversary of your subscription. For more general information regarding Subscriptions and Renewals, read here.
Customer’s responsibilities
Whilst we take our commitment to you very seriously, we also rely on you to enroll or download, install and regularly update our software. This is important as we continue to improve and expand the service you have subscribed to, and we wish you to continue to benefit from our efforts on your behalf. These ongoing improvements and expansions remain subject to the Avast EULA, which you can find here to read.
