Automatic identification of dates, timestamps and amounts.

Each redaction is tagged with metadata for complete traceability.
PDF, TIFF, JPG, PNG as well as Office documents. Hybrid PDFs also supported.
Companies are obligated to provide data subjects with a copy of all personal data upon request - within one month.
Under Article 12(3) GDPR, companies must respond to subject access requests without undue delay, and within one month at the latest. For complex requests, the deadline may be extended to a maximum of 3 months - but only with justification.
Article 15(4) GDPR stipulates that the rights of third parties must not be affected by the disclosure. This means: Personal data of other individuals must be redacted - a complete refusal is not permitted.
A common scenario: An employee is dismissed or leaves the company under dispute. On their solicitor's advice, they submit a subject access request under Article 15 GDPR. The company must now provide all emails, personnel files, appraisals and internal notes - but must correctly redact all data of other employees. With thousands of emails, this is an enormous effort without an automated solution.

The key regulations requiring professional redaction
The right of access gives data subjects the right to a copy of all personal data. Deadline: 1 month. Third-party data must be redacted.
Breach of professional confidence: Doctors, solicitors and other professionals bound by confidentiality commit a criminal offence if they disclose information without authorisation.
File inspection in procurement procedures: Bidders have inspection rights - but trade secrets must be protected.
The Freedom of Information Act: Citizens have the right to access official information - personal data must be excluded.
Whilst many PDF tools only visually hide text or cover it with annotations, Docuflair Redact permanently and irreversibly removes content. Additionally, the software automatically detects content, including in scanned documents.
All common formats such as PDF, TIFF, JPG, PNG as well as Office documents. Hybrid and searchable PDFs are also supported.
Docuflair Redact can access an Active Directory and extract defined fields such as names, telephone numbers or email addresses. This data is then used as the basis for redaction.
Yes. You can individually configure dictionaries, regex expressions, colour logic and even combined conditions.
Each redaction can be tagged with metadata (timestamp, user, reason), and a release history is maintained for manual post-processing.
Under Article 12(3) GDPR, you must respond without undue delay and within one month at the latest. For complex requests, you may extend the deadline by a maximum of two further months - but only with justification to the requester. Failure to meet deadlines can result in fines of up to 20 million euros or 4% of annual turnover.
You must provide all personal data of the employee - emails, personnel files, appraisals, internal notes. However, you must redact personal data of third parties (colleagues, supervisors). A complete refusal is not permitted. Docuflair Redact automates this process through Active Directory integration.
No. Under Article 15(4) GDPR, you may not completely refuse to provide information simply because third-party data is contained. You must choose the less intrusive means - i.e. redact the relevant passages. Only in exceptional cases (e.g. ongoing criminal proceedings) may refusal be justified.
Yes. In addition to classic redaction (black bars), you can also use white markings or freely configure the redaction colour. This is particularly useful for proposals and contracts where you want to remove prices and terms without it being immediately apparent.
Docuflair Redact uses advanced OCR technology to recognise text even in scanned images and non-text-based PDFs. The recognised text can then be automatically redacted using the same rules as for digital documents. Fuzzy matching also compensates for typical OCR recognition errors.
With Docuflair Redact, you choose a powerful, scalable and secure solution for the complete document lifecycle.
