QoE-report redaction is the removal of PII from a quality of earnings analysis. It supports anonymous sharing under GDPR Recital 26. anonym.plus runs locally and keeps the adjustments and add-backs that the buyer must test.
When this applies
A quality of earnings study names management, customers, and one-off items. The buyer needs the adjustments, not the people behind each line.
How anonym.plus handles it

- It flags names, IDs, and account data in the notes.
- Adjustments, add-backs, and figures stay in place.
- Swap or black out the confirmed PII.
- Save the clean report on your device.
What you need to provide
- The analysis (XLSX, PDF, or DOCX).
- An operator (Replace keeps the notes readable).
- Optional allow-list to keep accounting terms.

Limitations & cautions
A customer-concentration line can re-identify by share alone. One client at half of revenue points to itself after the name goes. Weigh whether the figure itself is a clue before sharing.
