The tool extracts PDF text, finds personal data and creates a new PDF with masked, selectable text. Text in images and scanned pages is not analyzed because the tool does not use OCR. The layout may differ from the original.
Masking direct identifiers can reduce personal data exposure. Context and other details can still be confidential, so assess the whole document before sharing.
Use the tool for documents containing text. Check that the result protects the relevant information while retaining the meaning you need for your task.
The tool detects and masks personal data in extractable document text. The result retains selectable text.
Not for text that exists only as an image. The tool does not use OCR, so it does not analyze personal data on scanned pages. A scanned PDF needs OCR first so its text can be extracted.
No. Automatic detection can miss information, and context can still identify someone. Always review the result before sharing.
Create an account to use the PDF tool, or try text anonymization for information you want to paste directly into a prompt.
