Statement batch redaction is the removal of personal data from many account records in one run. GLBA (15 U.S.C. §6802) limits how a bank shares nonpublic customer information. anonym.plus processes up to 20 files at a time on your device, with a shared map so one holder maps to one alias everywhere.
When this applies
A reporting job needs a folder of statements cleaned the same way. One-by-one work risks drift, so a batch run applies the rule evenly across the set.
How anonym.plus handles it
- Point anonym.plus at the statement folder on your machine.
- It scans each file for the customer-data set.
- Local OCR reads any scanned pages in the mix.
- A shared map keeps repeat holders steady across files.
- Review the summary and fix low-confidence flags.
- Save the clean set locally.
What you need to provide
- A folder of records (PDF, CSV, mixed).
- The shared label map turned on for steady results.
- An operator (Mask works well for accounts).

Limitations & cautions
A mixed folder of scans and native files leans on OCR for the images, so review low-confidence flags. The shared map can re-link the set if kept; turn it off when you need true anonymity.
Frequently asked questions
How does batch mode keep one holder steady?
A shared map logs each person once, so the same holder maps to the same alias in every file across the folder.
How many statements can one run handle?
Up to 20 files per batch, all processed locally with OCR for any scanned pages.
Does batch work upload anything?
No. The whole run is offline, so customer data stays on your machine.
