Need hints on how to enter personal data

It would be helpful to know if there is a best way to enter data to match the way you do your search for activity. For example, my medical ID ends with an -00 which just indicates that I am the primary on the account. If you are searching for an exact match, it would be missed if the "dark web" omits the -00. If I drop the -00, you could find a match, and hopefully not reject it if the dark web stored it with the -00.

That is just one example. I entered my Social Security number without the customary "-" between the three groupings of the number. Do you do your search both with and without the dashes? Should I have entered it with the dashes?

Same is true for phone numbers. What is the correct way to enter phone numbers? (xxx)xxx-xxxx or xxx-xxx-xxxx or xxxxxxxxx

It would be helpful to include these hints in the text in the box that is showing while entering the data.
