Download the Password Checkup extension on to your Google Chrome browser.
Once installed, you’ll see the Password Checkup icon in your browser bar. Then, every time you sign into a site, Google will check your login credentials to see if they are still safe to use.
If your login credentials aren’t on the database you’ll be free to continue. However, if they match a set in Google’s database you’ll be alerted to the problem. Google will then suggest you change your password to something else not already exposed.
