providing, from a server to a service provider, an application programming interface (API) for installation with a database at the service provider, wherein the database stores user data and the API serves as a data interface between the server and the service provider;
receiving, at the server and from the API installed at the service provider, a message indicating a data access request to access user data, relating to a user, that was previously stored with the service provider,
wherein the API generates the message indicating the data access request in response to an API call from the service provider when the service provider detects a database query at the database of the service provider for user data from a data requestor;
determining that the user has previously registered for user data access alerts;
generating, by the API, an electronic message indicating the data access request for user data previously stored with the service provider in response to the API call indicating a detection of the database query and determining that the user has previously registered for the user data access alerts; and
sending, by the API and via a communication network, the electronic message to a user device associated with the user when the electronic message is generated as a response to the received message indicating the data access request from the service provider.
