Performance warning redaction is the removal of personal identifiers from a discipline notice, guided by GDPR Recital 26. That recital sets when data is truly anonymous. anonym.plus marks names and contacts on your device, so the notice stays clear while the worker is shielded.
When this applies
A warning names the worker, the manager, and metric targets. You strip those identifiers before the notice is used for analysis or training.
How anonym.plus handles it
- Open the notice in anonym.plus on your device.
- The tool flags worker and manager names.
- Local OCR reads a scanned signed warning.
- Turn off the name map for true anonymity.
- Swap or black out the confirmed items.
- Save the clean copy locally.
What you need to provide
- The discipline notice (PDF, DOCX, or scan).
- An operator (Redact for analytics exports).
- Name map turned OFF for true anonymisation.

Limitations & cautions
Recital 26 treats data as anonymous only when no one can re-identify a person. A rare role plus a metric can still single someone out. Review the text, and keep the name map off for genuine anonymity.
Frequently asked questions
How do I make a warning truly anonymous?
Turn the reversible name map OFF and use Redact. Then check that no unique role or metric singles out a person, as Recital 26 requires.
Can I keep a pseudonym for trend reports?
Yes, with the name map on. That is pseudonymisation, still personal data, not the full anonymisation Recital 26 describes.
Is the notice uploaded?
No. The app runs locally, so the warning never reaches a cloud server.
