Mask a customer list before handing it over
Before an outside analyst or another department gets the file, hide the columns that identify people.
Steps
- Drop the CSV on "Mask personal data".
- Press "Hide all personal data" or "Contacts only"; whole columns can be hidden too.
- Check the preview table and save. The original stays as it is.
- Save the processing report if you need a record of what was masked.
Questions
- Can masked text be recovered?
- No. Masking is one-way. Keep the original file elsewhere.
- Can part of an email stay?
- Masking is by kind for now; combine it with hiding whole columns.
The CSV is never sent anywhere; everything runs in this browser.
