• CLEAR DROP
Features and formats
Pseudonymize or anonymize documents before sharing them.
Prepare a copy on your computer: pseudonymize values you may want to restore after using AI, or anonymize by redaction information you want to remove before sharing. Choose and review the changes; some update and licence features may use the network.
Pseudonymization & Anonymization by redaction
Two treatments for different goals
Choose pseudonymization for values you may want to restore, or anonymization by redaction with a black or blurred band. Always review the copy before exporting it.
Redacted copy
Anonymize by redaction
Remove selected information visually before sharing.
Redact selected passages with a black or blurred band, then review the exported copy.
- Black band
- Blurred band
Anonymization depends on the information you choose to redact and the context of the document. Review the exported copy before sharing; do not assume metadata is automatically removed.

Mapping tables are stored separately from the pseudonymized document. Before sending a copy to an AI tool, review it: pseudonymization reduces data exposure but does not remove every re-identification risk.
