FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions & Answers

No internet connection is required for processing your texts and documents.
All content is processed entirely locally on your device and is never transmitted.

An internet connection is exclusively required for the following purposes:

  • to activate the software
  • for periodic verification of the license status
During the license check, only the license status is verified.
Content, texts, or documents are not transmitted.

The app automatically identifies confidential information such as names, addresses, contact details, email addresses, banking information (e.g. IBAN), phone numbers, VAT IDs, file numbers, customer numbers, dates and times, currencies, IP and MAC addresses, web addresses and many other sensitive elements.

Additionally, you can adapt detection to your needs by:

  • adding custom redactions to the integrated dictionary (e.g. company-specific terms, internal codes or recurring labels),
  • defining exclusions so certain words or patterns are not marked.

Input:
Peter from Berlin loves Mary, but Mary loves John from Hamburg.

Simple redaction (maximum privacy):
[REDACTED] from [REDACTED] loves [REDACTED], but [REDACTED] loves [REDACTED] from [REDACTED].
Specific information is simply obscured.

Anonymization (information is generalized):
[PERSON] from [LOCATION] loves [PERSON], but [PERSON] loves [PERSON] from [LOCATION].
Identifying details are removed or generalized so that no specific entity can be identified.

Pseudonymization (preserves the structure):
[PERSON_1] from [LOCATION_1] loves [PERSON_2], but [PERSON_2] loves [PERSON_3] from [LOCATION_2].
Identities are replaced with consistent placeholders so that relationships and structure remain intact.

After installation, you can start a 14-day trial with full functionality by clicking “Start Trial” in the app’s license dialog.
After the trial period ends, a monthly subscription or lifetime license is required.

Processing is handled by Paddle, our authorised reseller (Merchant of Record).

After purchase, you receive an order confirmation email from Paddle. It contains a link to your personal Paddle area. There you can cancel your subscription, change payment details and access invoices.
Licence activation on your device takes place exclusively within the Redaxa app. Paddle does not manage device activations.

No. Redaxa supports you in identifying sensitive content and visualising risks – but human assessment remains necessary.
