Does PrivacyScrubber send my data anywhere?

No. All detection and masking happens locally in your browser's memory. You can verify this yourself by opening your browser's Network tab or disconnecting from the internet — the tool keeps working.

What AI tools does it work with?

ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot, Grok, Llama, Perplexity, Mistral, and Hugging Face Chat. The browser extension adds in-page masking directly inside each of these.

Is the free version good enough for regular use?

The free tier covers core PII types (names, emails, phone numbers) up to 15,000 characters per scrub, with a 3-page PDF limit. Batch processing, OCR, and industry-specific detection profiles (legal, medical, finance, etc.) require PRO.

Does this satisfy HIPAA, GDPR, or SOC 2 requirements?

PrivacyScrubber is designed to support de-identification under HIPAA Safe Harbor, GDPR Article 25/32, and SOC 2 CC6-series controls by removing identifiers before data reaches a third-party AI tool. It is a technical control, not a substitute for a full compliance program — check with your compliance team on whether it fully satisfies your specific obligations.

Can I get my original data back after the AI responds?

Yes. Paste the AI's response back into the tool and click "Reveal" — it swaps the tokens back to your real data locally, with no server round-trip.

Is PrivacyScrubber a local or cloud PII scrubber?

PrivacyScrubber is a 100% local, browser-based PII scrubber. Unlike cloud DLP solutions, it performs enterprise-grade PII and PHI scrubbing entirely in your browser's RAM, ensuring zero-trust data sanitization for texts and documents (PDFs, DOCX, CSV) without ever sending data to an external server.

What happens to the session map when I close the browser?

The session map is stored exclusively in volatile browser RAM. The moment you close the tab, reload the page, or navigate away, the entire mapping — including all original PII values — is permanently destroyed.

Does PrivacyScrubber remove PII from uploaded documents, and what is the output format?

Yes. PrivacyScrubber detects and scrubs PII from local documents (.txt, .docx, .pdf, .xlsx, .csv, and images). You can download the output either as a fully sanitized, anonymized document (retaining its original file extension and structure) or copy the processed text stream directly to your clipboard.

How does the TEAMS encrypted session sharing work?

PrivacyScrubber generates an AES-GCM encrypted link locally. Your colleague can paste the AI's response and use your shared, encrypted key to safely 'reveal' the original data on their machine — no database or server involved.

How does closed Shadow DOM sandboxing protect my data from malicious scripts?

PrivacyScrubber encloses both your editor input (#inputText) and the highlighted token output within isolated, closed Shadow DOM roots. This makes the raw, unredacted text completely inaccessible to any third-party scripts, browser extensions, or key-sniffing scripts running in your main document pool, creating a hardened frontend sandbox.

Can corporate accounts or accounting firms pay via manual invoice or wire transfer (SWIFT/SEPA)?

Yes. If your corporate credit card is declined due to international banking restrictions or if your procurement department requires manual invoicing, purchase orders (PO), or bank wire transfers (SWIFT/SEPA), our team can manually issue a formal invoice with tax reverse-charge support. Contact support@privacyscrubber.com to request an enterprise invoice.

How does PrivacyScrubber prevent data residue in system RAM (V8 memory wiping)?

To prevent PII or case documents from remaining in your device's memory after sanitization, the processing engine actively overwrites all temporary parsing buffers (used for DOCX, PDF, and spreadsheet extraction) at the byte level using Uint8Array.fill(0) in local memory immediately after use, ensuring zero sensitive residue remains in RAM before garbage collection.

Does changing the detection profile reset my protected session data?

No. Changing your detection profile (e.g., from General PII to Wealth Management) does not clear your active session or reset your local token maps. This ensures that any tokens generated using your previous profile remain fully decryptable when you paste AI responses back to 'Reveal' the original text. To completely wipe your session, rotate encryption keys, and clear all memory, click the 'Clear' button at any time.

How do local Audit Receipts and Teams Handoff work without a backend database?

PrivacyScrubber operates entirely in your browser's local RAM. Compliance audit receipts and team handoffs are exclusive features of the Teams Subscription. For audit compliance, the system builds an offline cryptographic PDF receipt documenting entity counts, timestamps, and active compliance profiles. For Teams Handoff, it encrypts the tab's session map in-memory using Argon2id and XChaCha20-Poly1305. Your colleague decrypts the token map on their machine using the shared key — no central database or server ever touches your data.

Does PrivacyScrubber use third-party tracking, analytics, or review widgets?

No. To maintain a strict zero-trust data sanitization architecture, PrivacyScrubber does not load third-party analytics trackers, cookies, or reviews integrations (such as Google Customer Reviews or similar widgets). Adding dynamic third-party scripts would require relaxing our Content Security Policy (CSP) and could allow external servers to inspect page states or log user environments. We display reviews statically or link to external platforms like G2 or the Chrome Web Store to ensure zero data leakage.

Can I use PrivacyScrubber as a PII MCP Server for Cursor or Claude Desktop?

Yes. PrivacyScrubber offers an official local Model Context Protocol (MCP) server package (@privacyscrubber/mcp-server) that integrates directly with Cursor IDE, Windsurf, and Claude Desktop. It acts as a local prompt security gateway, scanning and masking PII and API keys locally in volatile RAM before they are transmitted to external LLM APIs.

How are Team Administrator roles managed without a backend server?

In our Zero-Trust Data Sanitization (ZTDS) architecture, there are no server-side accounts or traditional 'Admin' vs 'User' roles. Team Administration is handled via client-side Blueprints. A team lead sets up the required compliance profiles, custom regex rules, and organization name locally, then locks the configuration and exports a cryptographic 'Team Blueprint' URL. When workers click this URL, their local PrivacyScrubber instance activates the TEAMS license, imports the mandated configuration, and disables their ability to edit or delete rules, ensuring organization-wide compliance securely without a backend database.

What is the difference between Token Labels and Custom Regex Rules?

Custom Regex Rules and Token Labels serve distinct purposes in Zero-Trust AI sanitization. Custom Regex Rules are a pattern discovery engine used to identify new or proprietary identifiers (such as internal ticket numbers, project codes like PROJ-\d{4}, or custom account formats) that are not covered by default NER models. In contrast, Token Labels do not search for new text; instead, they rename the replacement placeholders for standard detected entities (for example, mapping NAME → PATIENT or ID → CASE_NUMBER) so that the LLM receives domain-accurate semantic context in its prompt without requiring custom regex code.

How do Custom Token Labels optimize LLM prompt comprehension?

When prompts are sanitized using generic placeholders like [NAME_1] or [ID_1], LLMs may lose contextual role differentiation in multi-party prompts. Custom Token Labels allow PRO and TEAMS users to alias standard entity categories to domain-specific terminology (such as [PATIENT_1], [CLIENT_1], [PLAINTIFF_1], or [DEFENDANT_1]). This gives the LLM precise semantic clarity about each entity's functional role while preserving 100% anonymization and enabling seamless 1-click reverse-scrubbing ('Reveal') of the AI response.

What Medical Professionals Send to AI — and What They Should Be Sending Instead

Addressing Protect Patient Intake Forms Before LLM Analysis is an absolute requirement for modern healthcare providers. As ChatGPT, clinical decision support AI, and AI-assisted documentation platforms become ubiquitous in clinical settings, the inadvertent exposure of PHI to public datasets represents a severe compliance hazard. Our medical AI privacy guides provide the clinical blueprint for adopting AI safely. The core vulnerability: exposing Protected Health Information (PHI) to third-party AI servers, which constitutes a HIPAA breach and carries penalties up to $1.9M per violation category.

When clinicians utilize cloud chatbots to summarize patient histories, they risk exposing sensitive health information. Cloud safety switches cannot identify patient details in unstructured text inputs. For clinicians, nurses, medical researchers, and healthcare administrators, sanitizing text before transit is the only way to prevent breaches. Sanitize patient intake forms locally before using AI. Prevent cloud exposure of sensitive medical history with our RAM-only, zero-trust PHI scrubber. Includes Flat-rate TEAMS pricing and Zero-server architecture.

Why Medical Compliance Teams Flag Unmasked AI Prompts

Healthcare privacy laws are rigid: HIPAA Privacy Rule, HIPAA Security Rule, and the Common Rule (45 CFR 46) for research involving human subjects. However, practitioners need the speed of AI to handle massive administrative loads. This intersection requires mastering concepts found in pharmacy prescription data privacy for ai workflows—proving that data is properly de-identified before leaving the clinic. Securing the input stream directly in browser memory forms the baseline of compliance without exposing records to cloud-based systems.

Using our Zero-Trust Data Sanitization (ZTDS) engine, PrivacyScrubber intercepts sensitive records at the browser level via either the web interface or our automated Chrome Extension.

How to Use AI on Real Medical Data — Without Sending a Single Real Name

Using our Zero-Trust Data Sanitization (ZTDS) engine, PrivacyScrubber intercepts sensitive records at the browser level via either the web interface or our automated Chrome Extension. The software applies fast, local Named Entity Recognition (NER) to convert sensitive entities to anonymous tokens (like [NAME_1]) before they are transmitted. For compliance auditing, this mirrors the exact principles of HIPAA-compliant ChatGPT workflows, enabling organizations to leverage external AI capabilities without sacrificing data control. The Chrome Extension makes this integration seamless by embedding a protection toggle directly in ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini to automatically swap and restore text. By executing Named Entity Recognition entirely in local memory, PrivacyScrubber preserves the usefulness of ChatGPT, clinical decision support AI, and AI-assisted documentation platforms for production workflows without introducing external risk.

Our client-side architecture is verifiable using the Airplane Mode Standard. Turn off your network interface, run a sanitization cycle, and confirm that all processing stays in local memory. This matches the standard for offline compliance auditing, proving that local execution is the primary safeguard for clinical privacy.

Enterprise Grade Redaction Controls

Need to process complex formats or nested documentation? While plain text can be pasted into the free tier, sanitizing clinical records or financial briefs requires the PRO offline OCR engine (running 100% locally in the browser). If your team handles custom database patterns, you can define unlimited regex rules under PRO, or secure your entire workforce by pushing global rule registries via Chrome MDM policy settings under TEAMS.

Upgrade to PRO Deploy TEAMS

Zero-Trust Configuration & Threat Model

Deploying local data controls is critical when routing prompts to external platforms like ChatGPT, clinical decision support AI, and AI-assisted documentation platforms. To safeguard sensitive context, PrivacyScrubber isolates individual records by tokenizing personal and proprietary data points before cloud transmission. For this specific workflow, the browser-based Named Entity Recognition (NER) classifier targets identifying markers, achieving an average processing speed of 5ms. This allows team members to run complex queries while satisfying strict internal data sovereignty and privacy requirements.

COMPLIANCE FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about deploying zero-trust AI for Medical Teams.

Does protecting data with PrivacyScrubber before AI processing satisfy HIPAA Privacy Rule?

Yes. Processing pseudonymized data for a secondary purpose (AI analysis or drafting) aligns with HIPAA Privacy Rule because no personally identifiable data is transmitted to the AI provider. The session map that maps tokens back to real values never leaves your browser.

What specific PII does PrivacyScrubber detect for medical workflows?

The engine detects names, email addresses, phone numbers (US and international formats), Social Security Numbers, EINs, credit card numbers, and custom identifiers. PRO users can add custom regex rules to match medical-specific patterns such as proprietary account IDs, MRNs, or internal project codes.

Can I reverse the redaction if I use PrivacyScrubber to mask medical data?

Yes. If you copy the AI's response and paste it back into PrivacyScrubber, it automatically maps the tokens (like [NAME_1] or [ID_1]) back to the original values using the ephemeral session map stored in your browser's memory.

Can PrivacyScrubber be used 100% offline without network requests?

Yes. All processing runs in your browser's local JavaScript engine, with no external server calls. Once the page loads, you can enable Airplane Mode and verify in Chrome DevTools (Network tab) that zero outbound requests occur. All cryptographic operations (including client-side pseudonymization and reverse-revealing) utilize hardware-accelerated XChaCha20-Poly1305 encryption and Argon2id key derivation running entirely inside browser RAM, ensuring your medical data stays 100% on your device.

How can I verify that PrivacyScrubber sends zero data to servers?

Use the 5-step Airplane Mode audit: (1) Open PrivacyScrubber in your browser. (2) Disconnect your network connection (enable Airplane Mode). (3) Paste a text sample containing names, emails, and phone numbers. (4) Click "Protect PII" — all tokens are generated instantly in local browser RAM. (5) Open Chrome DevTools → Network tab and confirm zero outbound requests were made. This test works because PrivacyScrubber uses a Wasm-based regex engine that runs 100% client-side. The session token map (e.g. [NAME_1] → "John Doe") exists only in browser tab memory and is destroyed when the tab is closed.

Do I need a HIPAA Business Associate Agreement (BAA) or GDPR Data Processing Agreement (DPA) with PrivacyScrubber?

No. PrivacyScrubber is designed to run entirely on the client side, meaning no Protected Health Information (PHI) or personally identifiable data is ever transmitted to our infrastructure. Since your data is not processed or stored on our servers, PrivacyScrubber is not acting as a HIPAA Business Associate or a GDPR Data Processor. Consequently, organizations typically determine that standard Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) or Data Processing Agreements (DPAs) are not applicable to PrivacyScrubber. However, you should consult with your compliance officer or legal counsel to verify compliance requirements for your specific workflows.

Can I customize detection rules for industry-specific data formats?

Yes. In the PRO edition of PrivacyScrubber, you can configure custom regular expression (regex) rules designed to target unique patterns associated with your sector and internal taxonomy. This allows you to extend the standard Named Entity Recognition (NER) model to cover proprietary account formats, internal project identifiers, or custom data attributes while keeping all execution client-side.

Can I use AI to summarize patient records?

Only if you de-identify the records first. Uploading raw patient notes to public AI models violates HIPAA. PrivacyScrubber's local processing ensures PHI is masked before summarization. Protect your entire staff with TEAMS for $99/mo.

Is pasting sensitive data into ChatGPT safe?

Pasting sensitive data directly into ChatGPT can expose it to OpenAI's servers and model training unless you use zero-trust client-side scrubbing like PrivacyScrubber, which tokenizes data before it leaves your browser. Protect your workflows for $15/mo with PRO.

How does client-side PII redaction work?

Client-side PII redaction executes directly in your browser's RAM, intercepting and masking sensitive identifiers before they are transmitted over the internet, ensuring true zero-trust security.

How does the Secure Workspace differ from the Browser Extension?

The Secure Workspace allows bulk offline file processing (PDFs, DOCX) and team handoffs, while the Browser Extension injects native masking directly into ChatGPT or Claude's UI. Both are included in our zero-trust ecosystem.

What is the PII MCP Server used for?

The local Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server allows developers to automate PII sanitization in CI/CD pipelines, agentic workflows, and IDEs like Cursor—all executing 100% locally.
