Scan Frequency by License Tier

Overview:

Privacy Bee scans run automatically based on your license tier. This article explains how often scans occur for each plan so you know what to expect.

Scan Frequency by License

• Free Scan Only Account - One scan at account creation. No ongoing monitoring is included.
• Essentials License - Scans run once every 30 days starting from the date your account was created
• Pro License - Scans run once every 30 days starting from the date your account was created
• Signature Services License - Scans run every 7 days starting from the date your account was created

Why Does Scan Frequency Matter?

More frequent scans mean Privacy Bee can detect new exposures and re-exposures faster - and take action sooner. If your information reappears on a data broker site after being removed, Privacy Bee will detect it on the next scheduled scan and begin the removal process again automatically.

Can I Trigger a Scan Manually?

If you need a specific removal prioritized before your next scheduled scan you can message Orwell directly with the company name and URL. Our support team will help prioritize the request on your behalf.
