How Anonymizer works.
Sensitive data is swapped for placeholders before it leaves your computer, then swapped back in the answer.
Five steps, one round trip.
RestoreAnonymizer puts the real data back in the answer.
- 1FindAnonymizer finds sensitive data in your prompt or file.
- 2ReplaceEach item becomes a placeholder, like [NAME_1].
- 3SendThe AI only gets the placeholders.
- 4AnswerThe AI replies using the placeholders.
- 5RestoreAnonymizer puts the real data back in the answer.
