About Redact PDF
Redact PDF finds sensitive information and removes it permanently — the text underneath is deleted, not just covered with a black box. Built-in presets detect Aadhaar numbers, PAN, phone numbers and email addresses.

FAQ
Can someone copy the text under the black box?
No. The words are removed from the file itself, unlike drawing a rectangle in a normal editor.
Is Redact PDF free?
Yes. Redact PDF is completely free with no signup, no watermark and no daily limit for normal use (a fair-use limit protects the server from abuse).
Is it safe to use Redact PDF?
Yes. Files are sent over HTTPS, processed on our own server and deleted automatically — immediately after processing and in any case within 1 hour.
Which files can I use?
PDF.
Does it work on mobile?
Yes. Every tool is designed for phones first and works in any modern mobile browser on Android and iPhone.
