(3)5.0/5

PrivacyScrubber is a 100% client-side, zero-trust PII sanitization and data masking platform for Generative AI workflows. It protects sensitive enterprise, legal, financial, and patient data before it ever reaches ChatGPT, Claude, Microsoft Copilot, Google Gemini, or internal LLMs. Unlike traditional cloud DLP proxies that intercept and store your confidential data on third-party servers, PrivacyScrubber executes entirely in your browser's local memory (RAM). Zero server calls. Zero data stored. Zero telemetry. Verified offline in Airplane Mode. HOW IT WORKS: 1. In-Place Sanitization: As you type in ChatGPT, Claude, or Copilot, the free Chrome Extension (or Web App) instantly replaces names, emails, phone numbers, national IDs, credit cards, IP addresses, and custom secrets with safe cryptographic tokens ([NAME\_1], [EMAIL\_1], [SECRET\_1]). 2. Safe AI Processing: The LLM processes the sanitized prompt without learning confidential identities or trade secrets. 3. 1-Click Reverse Detokenization: When the AI responds, PrivacyScrubber automatically restores the original data locally in your browser memory — completely invisible to the AI provider. KEY CAPABILITIES: • Free Chrome Extension: Real-time prompt sanitization directly inside ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Copilot via hotkey (Alt+Shift+X) or automated scrubber button. • Multi-Format Document Redaction: Sanitize PDF, Word (.docx), Excel (.xlsx), CSV, and text files directly in browser memory without server uploads. • Offline OCR Engine: Extracts and sanitizes scanned contracts, medical records, and receipts in local RAM without external cloud vision APIs. • 25 Specialized Industry Profiles: Pre-configured detection for HIPAA Safe Harbor (healthcare), Attorney-Client Privilege (legal), PCI DSS & GLBA (banking), Blind HR screening, and DevOps secrets (API keys, JWTs). • Cryptographic CISO & DPO Audit Receipts: Downloadable PDF compliance certificates with SHA-256 integrity proofs and regulatory defense mappings. • Zero-Server Team Session Handoff: Teams share sanitized prompts and restore tokens across colleagues using end-to-end client-side encryption (Argon2id + XChaCha20-Poly1305). • Developer SDK (@privacyscrubber/sdk): Headless Node.js and WebAssembly (WASM) engine with \<1ms in-memory latency and zero network egress for backend pipelines and RAG architectures. SECURITY & COMPLIANCE (ZERO-DPA ARCHITECTURE): Because data never leaves the client device, PrivacyScrubber eliminates the need for Data Processing Agreements (DPAs) under GDPR Article 28 and satisfies HIPAA Safe Harbor (§ 164.514), SOC 2 Type II exemption, and ISO 27001 A.8.11 data masking requirements. Backed by academic research published on CERN/Zenodo (DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.22058770) and OSF. TRANSPARENT PRICING TIERS: • Free: $0 forever. Includes Chrome Extension, 15,000 characters/scrub for universal PII, and single document processing (PDF, Word, Excel). • Pro: $15/month or $110 Lifetime one-time payment. Unlimited characters, all 25 industry profiles, batch document processing (50+ files), offline OCR, and custom regex rules. • Teams: $99/month flat rate for unlimited users (zero per-seat tax), centralized compliance governance, and cryptographic team session handoff. • Developer SDK: $199/month for headless Node.js/WASM pipelines. • Enterprise: Custom on-premise and source code licensing for air-gapped environments.
