PII Detection FAQ

Do you store the detected PII data?

No, we never store PII data. All detection happens in real-time and the actual sensitive information is not logged or retained. We only return detection results and bounding boxes.

Can you detect partial PII?

Yes, we can detect partially visible IDs, cards, and documents. We also identify attempts to obscure PII that are still partially readable.

How does auto-redaction work?

When enabled, we return a processed image with detected PII blurred or masked. You can choose blur intensity and masking style (black box, pixelation, blur).

Do you support non-English documents?

Yes, we support IDs and documents in multiple languages and character sets, including Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Cyrillic, and more.
