Web screenshot redaction

Cover the detail people do not need to see

PrivacyShot lets you redact a screenshot with the right level of control: automatic suggestions for speed, manual selection for certainty, and an opaque cover for information that must not be read.

Three practical layers

Choose the treatment that matches the risk

SOLID

Opaque cover

Use black, white, or a custom solid color when the original value should not remain readable. This is the preferred option for passwords, tokens, and IDs.

BLUR

Blur or mosaic

Use blur or mosaic when you want to preserve a sense of the underlying layout while reducing detail in less sensitive context.

MANUAL

Manual selection

Drag a rectangle, select a page element, or add a small arrow, highlight, or label to make the final image clearer.

A safer editing habit

Redact first, then make the explanation clearer

PrivacyShot keeps the privacy controls in the same editor as the screenshot tools. You can add context without moving the original image to another service.

  • Cover passwords and access tokens with an opaque shape
  • Check names, phone numbers, emails, and account IDs
  • Use manual rectangles for data the rules did not flag
  • Review the exported image at 100% before sharing

Blur is not the same as deletion. For highly sensitive information, use a fully opaque cover and verify that the original value cannot be inferred from the surrounding context.

Redact the next screenshot in place
