Manage password change alerts

You may get an alert from Chrome if you use a password and username combination that has been compromised in a data leak on a third-party website or app. Compromised password and username combinations are unsafe because they've been published online.

We recommend that you change any compromised passwords as soon as you can. You can follow the instructions in Chrome to change your password on the site where you've used that password, and check your saved passwords for any other site where the password may be saved.

Chrome makes sure that your passwords and username are protected so that they can’t be read by Google.
