The Problem Courts See Every Day

⚖️

Court Sanctions

Over 200K FOIA cases backlog. One redaction slip = case dismissal or sanctions. Opposing counsel has recovery tools.

📄

e-Discovery Volume

Average litigation produces 5-10M documents. Redacting manually = months of work + high error rate at scale.

Hidden Data Risk

Metadata, embedded PDFs, color palettes leak PII. Client SSN buried in 50-page exhibits goes unnoticed.

HIPAA Safe Harbor requires removal of 18 specific identifiers (names, geographic data, dates, phone numbers, SSN, MRN, etc.). anonym.legal detects all 18 HIPAA identifiers automatically across 48 languages.

Yes. Batch upload government documents, apply FOIA-specific redaction presets, and generate production-ready PDFs with full audit trail. Supports exemptions b(6) and b(7)(C) for personal privacy.

Yes. We detect PHI entities including MRN (Medical Record Numbers), ICD codes, provider names, prescription info, and insurance IDs. HIPAA BAA available for healthcare organizations.

Why Reversible Encryption?

Before: Irreversible Redaction

Once you black out PII, you can't recover original for attorney review. Violates attorney-client privilege preservation rules.

Risk: Case dismissal, sanctions, malpractice.

After: Reversible Encryption

Redacted document shows ████ to external parties. Authorized team members decrypt with private key. Preserves audit trail and attorney work product.

Protected by Rule 26(c) protective orders + zero-knowledge architecture.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Batch processing handles 5,000+ documents per run. Reversible encryption lets you redact PII for production while maintaining the ability to decrypt for privilege review. FRCP Rule 26 compliant.

anonym.legal focuses on PII detection and redaction — not attorney-client privilege classification. However, its batch processing integrates with e-discovery workflows, allowing you to apply PII redaction after privilege review.

Documents are encrypted with AES-256-GCM. Each PII entity is replaced with an encrypted token. Authorized users with the decryption key can restore original values. Unauthorized viewers see only anonymized content. Zero-knowledge architecture ensures the server never sees your encryption keys.

It complements rather than replaces Relativity. Use Relativity for document review and privilege logging, then apply anonym.legal's PII redaction before production. The API and batch processing integrate into existing e-discovery workflows.
