No model training
Nothing you submit is used to train or fine-tune any model.
Security, by design
PII Purge is built to hold as little data as possible. Documents are processed in memory, never stored and never used to train models.
From upload to result
Your browser or application sends your document over HTTPS.
Our multi-step pipeline extracts text and layout, finds personal information in context and matches it to its position. Open-weight LLMs run on bare-metal servers in Hexploits Cloud. Nothing is sent to a third-party AI service.
The redacted copy is sent back, then the original and copy are discarded. Neither is written to disk, logged or used to train a model.
Minimal records
We keep a record of each redaction for billing, support and preventing abuse. These records are kept for a year.
For the free tool without an account, redactions are counted against a one-way hash of your IP address that changes daily. Those counts are deleted after two days.
| We record | We never record |
|---|---|
| Time, account and API key used | Document or text content |
| Size in bytes and page count | The file name |
| Number of items redacted | What the items were |
| Duration and outcome | The redacted copy |
Our infrastructure
The website, API and detection models run on Hexploits Cloud. The open-weight LLMs run on our bare-metal servers.
Nothing you submit is used to train or fine-tune any model.
Models keep nothing between requests. Documents are never written to disk.
We run the models ourselves and control where they run and what they keep.
Permanent PDF removal
The redacted PDF is built from images of the original pages. Text beneath each redaction bar no longer exists in the output.
Original metadata, bookmarks, attachments, form fields, comments and hidden text layers are left out of the redacted PDF.
If detection is unavailable, the request returns an error. Scanned pages without text are rejected instead of being returned partly redacted.
Permanent removal applies to the items detected and redacted. Automated detection can miss information, so always review your result before sharing it.
