Redact Documents Online
Privacy-first · Faces blurred on-device · No originals stored
Document privacy is adjacent to photo privacy because names, account numbers, addresses, and screenshots often travel together. If you share a photographed contract, badge, invoice, or screen, you need stronger masking than a light blur.
What should be redacted
- Names, signatures, account numbers, and addresses
- QR codes, barcodes, and employee IDs
- Screenshots that contain profile photos or private tabs
Blur vs redact
For text-heavy content, redaction or very heavy masking is safer than a subtle blur because readable edges can survive compression. Use blur for faces and stronger coverage for document text.
Before you send a file
- Check the full page and every crop.
- Zoom in on masked regions to confirm nothing remains readable.
- Export a clean copy instead of sending the original capture.
