Otherwise, your computer will become susceptible to numerous virus threats.

Setting up family protection is simple. Just enter an email address and nickname for each person you want to invite.

Your family member will get a message to log in along with steps to set up protection for their computers, phones, web browsing, and passwords. They’ll also have their own identity monitoring to receive alerts when their personal data is found on the dark web.

Two adults can also find their personal info on data broker sites to remove it, and clean up personal info from old online accounts.

How can McAfee help me clean up my online accounts?​
We’ll show you which companies or websites have access to your personal information and provide steps on how to reach out to them to have it deleted. If you prefer to save time and have McAfee send the requests with a single click, the request will be transmitted directly from your email inbox. We help you send these requests, but we do not act as an agent on your behalf.​

How will you see who has my personal data?​
With your approval, we’ll scan the subject lines in your inbox to see which companies are emailing you and how much of your info they might have. We will only look at the email sender, subject line, timestamp, and the first few words of the email—we will not scan the full body of the email or any attachments.​
We’ll then help you decide which accounts you want to keep and which you might want to delete to lower the risk of a data breach.​

What’s the difference between “Scans” and “Full-service”?​
Online Account Cleanup: Scans helps you find any accounts tied to your email and gives you clear instructions to reclaim your data. Online Account Cleanup: Scans is included in all McAfee+ plans.​
Online Account Cleanup: Full-service not only finds your accounts, but lets the experts send the data deletion requests for you with a single click, saving you up to 10 hours or more* of manual work. Online Account Cleanup: Full-service is only included with McAfee+ Ultimate plans.

What's included in McAfee+ family plans?
Family plans come with identity restoration support, online privacy, and device security for up to 6 family members without having to share logins. Each family member can set up their own identity, privacy, and device protection features in the way that works best for them.

Additional features for adults include Personal Data Cleanup, Online Account Cleanup, and more!

How do I share the subscription with my family?

Why should my children have online protection?
Kids need protection in many of the same ways adults do. They have usernames and email addresses that could be part of a data breach, finding their way to the dark web where criminals can access them.

When online, children (and adults) need to be notified when a website or link is risky and could lead to a phishing site or a malware download. And of course, device protection on their computers and phones can save them from online threats like viruses and hackers.

I have identity theft coverage with my McAfee+ plan. What should I do if I'm a victim of identity theft? Select McAfee plans include identity theft coverage to cover up to $1,000,000 (USD) of qualifying losses and provide restoration support to help you reclaim your identity.

If you think you may be a victim of identity theft and you have identity theft coverage with your McAfee+ plan, go to protection.mcafee.com and click on Go to dashboard in the gray Identity row and find Identity theft support.

What's included in McAfee+ family plans?
Family plans come with identity restoration support, online privacy, and device security for up to 6 family members without having to share logins. Each family member can set up their own identity, privacy, and device protection features in the way that works best for them.

Why does my spouse need online protection if I already have it?
Every one of us has valuable personal data and our online privacy to protect. When you add your spouse as an adult family member on your family account, they will be able to set up and manage their own identity monitoring, Personal Data Cleanup to remove their info from data broker sites, and more.

How many people can I add to my family plan?
You can add up to 5 additional people to your family plan for a total of 2 adults and 4 children (minors).

How will minors be able to manage their online protection?
The account owner can invite members as either an adult or a minor. Minors (and adults) will have access to their own accounts on the McAfee Protection Center. However, minors have access to fewer identity and privacy features than adults.

As a parent, you can choose to set up and manage your child’s account yourself and access the account in the McAfee Protection Center in order to stay on top of your child’s online protection settings, notifications, and recommended steps to improve your child’s online safety.
