Claims redaction is the removal of nonpublic personal information from a claimant's record. GLBA, at 15 U.S.C. §6802, limits how that data is shared. anonym.plus marks each item on your device, so the loss facts stay useful while the identifiers go.
When this applies
A claims record holds the claimant's bank details, contacts, and loss notes. You trim those fields before the file moves to an adjuster or counsel.
How anonym.plus handles it
- Open the record in anonym.plus on your device.
- Local OCR reads scanned receipts and forms.
- The tool flags names, accounts, and contacts.
- Keep claim numbers and loss codes intact.
- Swap or black out the confirmed items.
- Save the clean copy locally.
What you need to provide
- The claims record (PDF, DOCX, or scan).
- An operator (Replace keeps the notes readable).
- Optional allow-list for claim and policy numbers.

Limitations & cautions
A loss narrative can name a unique fact that points to the claimant. The tool flags named items. Read the notes for indirect clues before you share the record.
Frequently asked questions
Whose data should I redact in a claims record?
The claimant's nonpublic data is the usual target under GLBA: accounts, contacts, and identifiers. anonym.plus flags each for review.
Will my claim numbers survive the pass?
Yes. Use the allow-list to protect claim and policy numbers. Only personal data is marked for removal.
Is the record uploaded for processing?
No. The desktop app works locally, so the file stays on your machine.
